An addiction distinct from others.

A beautifully played game of chess in which you

can't help but fall in love with both sides. A character-filled tapestry that weaves a tale
you will never be able to forget. All of these descriptions of "La Casa de Papel," also
known as "Money Heist," which is currently available on Netflix, are spot-on.
The episode opens with a seemingly normal man in a tweed jacket rescuing a damsel
in distress—who is actually the source of the distress. This man, who goes by "The
Professor," demonstrates his cleverness by devising a scheme to break into the
Spanish Royal Mint and then the Bank of Spain without actually stealing any money.
He assembles an eight-person team, each with a unique set of skills.
They receive regular training on the entire heist, attempting to cover every angle and
prepare a fallback strategy. The show's creators' approach is what really sets it apart,
even though the premise—eight people trying to pull off the greatest heist ever—
seems fairly ordinary.
Because of the way the show alternates between the past and present, it is able to
explore each character in greater detail and depict the heist as happening a certain
number of hours into the robbery. Because the audience develops an emotional bond
with each character, the stakes are very high and they make the viewer want to know
what happens to them all. The show resists giving in to your demands by withholding
the identities of the new characters from you until the writers feel that it is imperative.
The details of the heist give you hope that, with the correct tools, you too could pull
off an event this sizeable. Even though this heist is the "perfect" one, what really
makes it interesting to watch is the nuanced portrayal of human emotions on the parts
of both the hostages and the robbers throughout the entire episode. The robbers'
backstories, as well as their inner conflicts, feelings, and coping mechanisms, are
woven throughout the show. With the rebellions, the decline in regard for their
kidnappers after a few hostages manage to escape, Stockholm syndrome (or wasn't
it? ), and the terror, the hostages' side couldn't have been more appropriate either.
The show is genuinely valuable because of the constant display of human emotion that
exists between the hostages and the robbers.The Professor engages in a mental chess
match with the police until he is defeated, while the robbers carry out their portion of
the inside heist. The game is extremely sophisticated and well-thought out. And just
when you might think that everything has gone wrong, you realise that the writers
have had that exact same goal in mind the entire time, and their scheme has worked
perfectly.
The show contains feminist undertones, such as when one of the robbers uses the
ultimate power move to yell, "The age of matriarchy begins now," and tries to teach
one of their own to destroy his backward beliefs.
The show has hints of humour throughout. You'll laugh at Neymar's cameo in which
he tells outright lies about how much he despises parties and football. You'll be
singing along to tunes like Bella Ciao for a very long time because the soundtrack
enhances the overall atmosphere of the programme. You'll be left wanting more by the
cliffhangers at the conclusion of each season, and ideally Season 4 is coming soon.
People from all over the world have been captivated by La Casa de Papel, a robbery at
its core, and I don't think any of us are prepared for the show to bid us farewell.
