Crooks 2024 Netflix Review: An Enjoyable Ride for Me

Are you ready for a tremendous, thrilling heist adventure? Recently, a German heist drama series was released on the Netflix platform. The name is Crooks, and obviously I have finished watching it.

Today's topic will be very interesting, especially for those who like watching heist-based thriller dramas, so stay connected till the end.

So if we come to the basic details, then Crooks has come with a total of 8 episodes; each episode is going to be one hour long. The next important point is that the story in season 1 has not ended, which means Crooks season 2 will also come.

Another good news is that this show is available in Hindi dubbed, and the voice casting of Hindi dubbing is absolutely perfect, which means Hindi dubbing is quite amazing.

Keep in mind that this show is not family-friendly at all because it is full of many killing scenes, nudity, or bad words. Now I want to set one thing in your mind: if you sit down to watch this series, then some things should be clear for you.

First of all, the story of the show does not present anything new or fresh. There are two gangs between which a clash is seen, and I am sure many of you must have already seen this kind of theme.

Next important point: The main focus of the series is on revenge drama, where the story is shown with the characters Charlie and Joseph, both of whom come from different backgrounds.

Charlie is a skilled thief who has the skill to break the safe. On the other hand, Joseph has a mafia background.

There is a coin angle in the story that creates excitement. Although I will not reveal much, don't worry.

When Charlie and Joseph go on a heist, things go wrong, which means the death of an important person happens, after which the troubles of Charlie or Joseph increase a lot. Both of them are in critical condition, hanging between life and death.

Can they survive? What is the background of Joseph's family? To know all the twists and turns that will be seen regarding that, you have to watch this show.

Now, after knowing the details about the story, you must have got an idea that what will actually be seen in this show is a normal guy who will get trapped between two gangs and will try to save his family, and to save his family, he will be able to cross any line.

So we have experienced this kind of theme many times; there is nothing new in that theme, but that does not mean that this series is bad.

While the show's concept might not offer anything groundbreaking, the way a familiar story has been presented in this series is very thrilling and intense, and a lot of twists and turns are seen—a lot of crime drama is present, which does not allow you to move away from the screen.

The way the characters have been set up from the very first episode, you will become so familiar with them that when things go wrong for them in the second episode, you'll really care about what happens to them.

Character drama, their development, their chemistry, their emotion—it works completely for you.

The demands of action lovers have also been fulfilled here. In this show, you get to see a lot of action scenes, especially gunfight scenes, watching which you will feel the intensity in every episode, and it is not possible for you to get bored here.

This show is not slow-paced but fast-paced, which means events happen very quickly. One more thing: some adult scenes have been shown in every episode, small glimpser types, so these will also keep your interest somewhere.

The production value of the show is quite good, and the performances of the actors are also appreciated, especially Frederick Lau, who played the character Charlie.

As I told you, the story of this show does not show anything new, and a lot of stretching has been done in the story.

Conclusion

Overall, in the end, I would like to tell you that if you want to watch a crime drama with a familiar story in which you get intense moments as well as thrilling or exciting moments and you want to see tremendous gunfight mafia things, then definitely you can try this series once without much expectation.

For me, the ending of this show was a bit underwhelming; things could have been better, but still, Crooks has proved to be an enjoyable ride for me.
