No, there aren’t any extra deaths or compromises within the fifth and last a part of the Spanish crime drama however there may be nonetheless dollops of motion, twists, tears and laughs.
**Spoilers forward**
After taking the emotional graph to the hilt in Half 1, it was time to usher in the remaining elements for Half 2. The gang reeled beneath the heartbreaking dying of Tokyo, however not for too lengthy. They acquired again to the enterprise of getting the gold out of the Financial institution of Spain, a motive that now turned a tribute to Tokyo and Nairobi. The Professor gathered his items too, as a result of the rapid mess created by Alicia Sierra by fleeing his den, needed to be resolved. Colonel Tamayo begins of being as misplaced as we anticipated. However this time, there’s extra from him.
Palermo returns to cost solely to show why he’s one of the best man for the job. We’re taken again in time when he and Berlin would have a good time each time they solved the tiniest roadblock whereas planning the near-impossible heist. Whereas Half 1 was about Tokyo “dwelling many lives”, Half 2 delved right into a deeper again story of Sergio and Andres dropping their father.
We knew Half 2 is bringing curtains down on the collection so giving closure to a number of open ends was anticipated. Denver-Stockholm-Manila discover a decision. And so does the rivalry between The Professor and Alicia Sierra. The Professor additionally proposes to Raquel whereas being handcuffed and hanging — a Deja vu. Berlin’s heartbreak, Benjamin taking cost in The Professor’s absence and Arteche in motion have been some noteworthy sequences. We’ve got some fan theories coming true whereas some shockers too. I anticipated to see extra of Sagasta, Rafael and Tatiana. However the makers most well-liked to not waste a lot time on them, moderately choose essentially the most wanted plot factors from their characters.
And simply when the viewers nearly misplaced hope for the survival of the gang, we acquired ample sudden twists. The Professor enters the financial institution, however not how we thought. We acquired some enjoyable moments, laughs, ‘Pamplona’, and completely satisfied tears when the gang sings “Bella Ciao” yet one more time.

How usually do you end up rooting for the dangerous guys, and cursing the precise heroes? Cash Heist’s fundamental theme saved its promise until the top and we had an enormous smile when the gang managed to stroll free, with the gold of their hand.
The motive wasn’t to depart the viewers judging whether or not it was a very good or a nasty season. The writers, identical to us, knew all they have been anticipated to do was to hitch the open ends, making it a full circle and giving the story closure with out taking issues excessive. What they did, why they did — the replies are hidden in all its 5 seasons mixed. Right here, we simply wanted to search for a cheerful viewing, bitter-sweet moments, lovable characters and a present that saved us entertained for the previous few years. Cash Heist did that. And we’re smiling, although making an attempt to sink within the feeling that certainly one of Netflix’s most profitable present simply had its finale.
