Review of Heist

Heist (2021)
10/10
Enjoyed all 3 stories...ignore the negative reviews and see for yourself
25 July 2021
I feel compelled to give a review after seeing all the overly critical reviews about this docuseries. I enjoyed all three stories. I thought they were laid out well and the reenactment acting was good. I wasn't looking for Oscar-worthy performances, just believable. I don't think it does the crimes a disservice by showing humanity towards these people. They are paying on many levels, I'm sure. I don't think it's cheaply done either. It's unnecessary for crime stories to always have a dark and somber mode, like most do. The lighter attitude helps it not affect you in a depressing way. It didn't exactly sway me to pity any of them, but it shows the reality of the struggles humans face with temptation when life isn't going so great. All of them suffered consequences. You'll likely get caught in this day and age so the moral is to take the high road. In the meantime, I'd love to see more Heist stories in the future.
