Money Heist has been a tremendous success. Not just in recognition and viewership for Netflix, but the narrative as well.
Off the hook, right? Money Heist has all the ridiculous anecdotes and surprises that should have wrecked the series a long time ago, but somehow, it’s made the absurdity work. We know from the experience of watching Hindi serials, this premise sells.
The entertainment is so succinctly exercised into the story map, and the characters are so well-defined that it’s an invigorating, addictive formula. Money Heist is going to be difficult to beat for Netflix. This is indeed by far one of their best series.
Audiences will switch on to play on season 5, knowing that they are in for a ride. There’s always a sense of expectation when spectators enter the final season, and there’s this anxiety that it will blunder on the last leg. Money Heist Season 5 eliminates those anxieties from the first episode. It’s cinematic by its design. Action-filled to invigorate the brain with appropriate cliffhangers. The characters connect with the spirit. Like freemanic paracusia.
All the writing efforts come to a culmination in season 5. The well-defined characters pay off. There’s a feeling that you’ve been on a ride with them since season 1. They feel like your buddies, and at times, loved ones. The heist team has impressively made the audience root for them with their story.
The feeling is not about being a convict or good versus evil.
All of that doesn’t exist in this ecosystem called Money Heist.
Season 5 shows how the focused communications created so far have succeeded. It’s easy to grow into getting acclimated to the anti-establishment. To feel alienated by the system. To go against the status-quo in a world of systemized economic processes.
The oratory language used in season 4, season 5 is perfection. It’s rarely about the excitement of a heist, or the safety of captives, or the desire for treasures. It’s family. It’s attachment. And it’s also an abundance of persistence. All rules are thrown out of the window in season 5 as both sides-the team and the officials are now desperate.
There are deviations with the Professor getting captured by Sierra, a persona with a no-compassion demeanor. The bank is problematic to maintain for a hostage situation. Plus, the authorities, led by Colonel Tamayo, have had it. It’s not about a civilian rescue anymore. Season 5 induces psychological warfare while the media documents it all, allowing the public to form judgments.
Netflix only dropped the first five chapters on the initial release, but it’s abundantly obvious that the game has changed as the story cruises towards a finale. The writers are brilliantly bringing it together and the production team is clinically executing it.
