Plots(1)
The Last Panthers is a thrilling six-part crime drama series based on real events. At the beginning of the millennium, capital cities across Europe were targeted in a series of daring jewellery robberies. They were carried out by the 'Pink Panthers' – a gang famed for their bold daylight raids and movie-style getaways. But after terrorizing Europe's jewellers for a decade, they suddenly disappeared. Now, a heist in the south of France bears all the hallmarks of the Panthers-with one tragic difference: the death of a little girl during the getaway. What starts with diamonds, leads to guns, drugs, high-finance and involves the corridors of power in the EU, the City of London and the murky world of Europe's criminal underworld. (HBO Nordic)

Theft of diamonds of almost incalculable value, which have the only flaw. They are not for sale. And for this series, MacGuffin's entry point is to get bogged down in the European underworld of organized crime, from Marseille, Hungarian slums to a Serbian gang with ambitions. A film set, raw and uncompromising plot, absolutely non-black-and-white in terms of characters, magnificently played (no wonder with such a great cast), acting in many ways quite realistically and with only one major snag. It tries to be fatal through flashbacks, which connect the live stories of individual characters. And while the short ones fulfill their purpose, the one from the fifth episode, which steals almost all the footage, does not. It is not bad but wasting an entire episode on something that doesn't say much new about the characters in a six-part miniseries will definitely let you down. Moreover, it doesn't even work as the imaginary silence before the storm in the form of the final episode. In any case, it is excellent (not only) criminal à la rough genre of the French school of the 1970s.
