Money Heist, also referred to as La Casa De Papel (House of Paper), is another Netflix series that takes an overused plot and spins a singular story from its common thread. A genius, named Professor, contracts eight people with nothing to lose and enfolds them into an idea to occupy the Royal Mint of Spain, kidnap a few dozen citizens, and print many many dollars.

To keep everyone’s identities a secret, the newly contracted bank robbers are named after cities and told to stay all personal information to themselves. However, how interesting would the story be if everyone followed the rules?

One misstep after another leaves eight robbers with good intentions, and an airtight plan, left to adapt to all or any that would go wrong… and does.

A story a few bank robbery gone wrong sounds familiar, right? Yet, this story is anything but trite or routine. That’s because it’s hard to inform a standard story that’s embedded in humanity and love.Anyone who frequently reads my reviews knows I’m a sucker for character-driven stories. To me, they're the simplest vehicles for startling narratives that best reflect the human condition.

Our lives aren't plot-driven. Life happens, and we, as people with our own biases, shaping experiences, and second-nature tendencies, react to life. Resultingly, life becomes filled with surprises and stories entrenched during this narrative become even easier to attach with.

This idea holds true unless an individual is predictable, shies from the unknown, and adheres to specific routines. And then, the sole recourse to knock them off-course is love — an equivalent epicenter of cash Heist.

The love of their friends. The love of latest and old lovers. The love of cash and power. The love of their parents.

Love makes these characters whole and propels their worlds until all of them collide during a explosion . And that’s a wonderfully accurate thanks to describe this tale–a explosion . One explosion after the opposite leaves the Professor (Álvaro Morte), and police inspector, Raquel Murillo (Itziar Ituño), playing chess to ascertain who are going to be the last word victor.

As is seemingly common with all Netflix Originals, it’s hard to pinpoint a villain because you'll understand each side . You get trapped within the game of mental chess (or better described as battleship), in a clumsy position where you’ve come to like the people on each side , and you’re left hopelessly wishing that, somehow, both teams would win.

However, there’s one character that has did not show any nuance and it really bothers me: Arturo Román.

Obviously, there are characters who annoyed me at some point in time, like Río (Miguel Herrán) and Tokyo (Úrsula Corberó). However, they’re still balanced during a way that I can understand why they create the stupid decisions they are doing (although it doesn’t make them less aggravating).

But with Arturo, he’s just a selfish coward. This vastly contrasts the nuance in literally all the opposite characters shown within the series and, due to that, his character agitates me. I can’t pinpoint whether his character’s flatness is purposeful or not.

Everything this character does is for his own selfish needs and nearly always ends in disaster for others as he pops unscathed. When it looks like this pattern would end after Arturo’s latest plan turns deadly — it doesn’t.

Quite the other . With a red, metal pole inches from crushing his skull, Arturo gives a speech that has hardly any truth thereto and is punctuated with dramatic music playing within the background like he’s some kind of hero.

The scene features a huge amount of irony , because we all know everything beginning of his mouth is crap. He concocts reasons for why he puts people’s lives in peril to form himself feel better once they go down.

And while his cheeks are shaking and tears fill his eyes, all I can think is… I hope he dies within the end.

I don’t usually wish death on characters. I actually believe death may be a lazy plot tool that rarely ends in an impactful reward for the audience or the narrative. And yet, this character has me acting out of character.

Part 2 (or season 2) of this series is beginning soon, and that i hope they provide me a reason to love this character the maximum amount because the writers of cash Heist apparently do, because he’s falling completely flat as of immediately .
