JUST KEEP STREAMING: MOVIES/SERIES REVIEW

MBABANE - With much of the planet at least temporarily limited to home viewing, our local film and series fanatics will be giving us reviews of the most talked about or rather watched shows on the net! 

We may run out of toilet paper, but at least we won’t run out of shows to stream.
Since the implementation of lockdowns in most countries due to the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, there has mostly been one way people have been keeping themselves entertained.

Most recently, a series named ‘Money Heist’ which has been made available on Netflix has taken social media users across the country by storm.
Some have shared their positive views and well some have shared their dissatisfaction on the World Wide Web.

The series Money Heist (Spanish: La casa de papel, transl. The House of Paper) is a Spanish television heist crime drama series. Created by Álex Pina, the series was initially intended as a limited series to be told in two parts. It had its original run of 15 episodes on Spanish network Antena 3 from May 2, 2017 through November 23, 2017. Netflix acquired the global streaming rights in late 2017. It re-cut the series into 22 shorter episodes and released them worldwide, beginning with the first part on December 20, 2017, followed by the second part on April 6, 2018.

Budget

In April 2018, Netflix renewed the series with a significantly increased budget for 16 new episodes total. Part 3, with eight episodes, were released on July 19, 2019. Part 4, also with eight episodes, were released on  April 3, 2020. The first season revolves around a long-prepared, multi-day assault on the Royal Mint of Spain in Madrid, in which a group of robbers take hostages as part of their plan to print and escape with €2.4 billion.
It involves eight robbers, code-named after cities and led by the Professor (Álvaro Morte) from an external location.

The story is primarily focused on one of the robbers, Tokyo (Úrsula Corberó), as they battle with hostages on the inside and the police on the outside. In the third season, the surviving robbers are forced out of hiding, and with the help of new members, they plan and perform an assault on the Bank of Spain.
