Money Heist poster

Money Heist (La casa de papel) is a Spanish-language heist thriller built around an audacious criminal mastermind — The Professor — who orchestrates an elaborate siege of Spain's Royal Mint and later its central bank. Its first two seasons are widely regarded as a tightly plotted, twist-dense crime drama with a compelling ensemble and strong emotional investment in its outlaw protagonists. The show is best experienced as a binge, driven by constant plot momentum, escalating tension, and a striking central performance. Its cultural identity as a celebrated non-English-language breakout hit is itself part of its identity. Later Netflix-produced seasons are divisive, with many viewers recommending the first two as a self-contained masterpiece.

From the reviewers

The duel and chess between the protagonist and antagonist was surprising and full of ups and downs.
Unnecessary flood of new characters whom you cannot relate to at all. The plot which was filled with surprises became totally predictable and utterly boring.
as the plot gets more boring And flawed, writers just pour more gunfights into the story in hope of saving it, but it's a futile attempt
A chess game between the police and the robbers, you will be surprised by its development. You can not foresee anything.
there are so many twists and surprises that it will keep you on the edge of your seat and guessing throughout the entire series!
