10 MISTAKES EVERYBODY MISSED IN MONEY HEIST
Among the popular shows watched worldwide is none other than the recent resurfaces phenomenon
Money Heist.
A Spanish heist crime drama series first aired in 2017 on the Spanish network Antena 3.
The series is narrated by Tokyo, a bank robber in search of a hideout from the police, being
recruited by a man who goes by the name of 'The Professor'.
He invites her to participate in his plan, to rob the Royal Mint of Spain and walk away
with €2.4 billion, accompanied by seven other robbers namely, Berlin, Rio, Denver,
Moscow, Oslo, Helsinki, and Nairobi.
With a growing fan base worldwide, it has its audience glued to their seats.
The building tension, the nail-biting suspense, the blooming romance between characters and
the buzzing action has fans addicted to the show.
It has managed to garner a large number of viewers and is one of the top three most streamed
shows on Netflix.
It is highly popular in Italy, Argentina, France, Portugal, and Brazil.
But no matter how good a show is there are some mistakes that some audience picks up
before the production crew.
However small, these errors are still there.
Let's look at the “10 mistakes everybody missed in money heist”.
But before we begin, make sure you subscribe to the channel and hit the bell icon so that
you don’t miss out on anything!
Alright, now let's begin.
THE JUNKYARD OWNER AND THE SKETCH The frenzy and exhaustion of catching the
robbers keep increasing among the police each day.
However in the 6th episode of the first season, when the police finally think that they have
a lead; the junkyard owner who claims to have seen the Professor; it slips right through
their fingers.
The junkyard owner sits down with a police officer to draw the professor's sketch but
when he is threatened by the Professor through transmission in Russian, he proceeds to erase
the almost complete sketch, and surprisingly the force doesn't even try to get it back.
They storm at him and tell him to leave.
Having a crucial witness against the mastermind behind one of the biggest heists the country
has ever seen, and letting him go because he claims to know nothing , even after almost
completing the sketch, does not make sense.
Some fans on Reddit even joked about how dumb the officers were when they didn't even try
Ctrl+Z to retrieve the deleted sketch.
THE PLETHORA OF JOKERS FLOODING THE HOSPITAL In the 12th episode of pat 2, when the police
set up a trap for the professor by luring him in the hospital that Angel has now awakened
from his coma, the Professor whose fate now lies in the hands of Angel's consciousness,
needs to confirm the news.
But since he is a highly suspected fugitive, he hires dozens of people dressed as clowns
to create a diversion for his investigation.
Where did he even find this number of people who showed in clown costumes for acting auditions,
at a HOSPITAL??
And even when he makes it there, he walks towards the desired room unsuspected, uninterrupted
while other clowns are being pushed away?
While things were going haywire for the officers deployed there, everything seems to be folding
smoothly out for the Professor as though walking in a park.
POOR AIMING SHOTS FOR TRAINED PROFESSIONALS It's one thing to show a character smarter
than the police, that is justified and possible.
But what appalls me is the fact that these very ordinary robbers aside from their skills,
more than half have never had the experience of a battlefield much less a firing situation.
But by some miracle, they are a perfect match for the trained forces opposite to them.
When Denver takes Moscow to the roof along with hostages disguised in the same attire,
he hands a fake gun to Arturo, and the police fires at him mistaking him for one of the
robbers.
Reading from Arturo's body language, and the way he held the gun would've been enough for
professional profilers to know that he wasn't one of the robbers.
But they fire at him anyway and even when he faces a professional firing squad that
fires multiple times intending to kill him, he manages to hit only one bullet on his shoulder!!
Not even on the chest or his heart.
Secondly, when Tokyo heroically rides racing into the mint, without a cover, not one bullet
manages to hit her.
Thirdly while escaping they face an army, which is ten times more skilled than the local
police, still don't injure any of the members until Berlin willingly gives himself up.
RACQUEL'S LOVE FOR THE PROFESSOR Even though the cop eventually joins the gang,
her character was a disappointment throughout the first and second parts.
Officers assigned to such a heist case must be skilled and highly professional, not to
mention that they fully understand that the cases are confidential until their exposure
to the media.
She willingly shares her updates with her new love interest, which she has only met
a few weeks ago, sharing very intricate details.
Moreover even after she discovers the real identity of her boyfriend, Salva, instead
of arresting him immediately and taking him to the precinct, she drives away from the
city with him to interrogate him.
As a way to justify her guilty feelings, she even makes him take a polygraph, which has
quite an impact on her.
She compromises and sabotages the investigation of the case by letting him go away.
THE ESCAPE TUNNEL WAS DUG TOO LATE If the Professor had intended for them to
escape through a tunnel, why didn't they start digging right away, this would have bought
them more time to escape.
The crew plans for the heist for about five months but how can they not focus on the escape
route.
What they could've done beforehand was to dig from the professor's side.
Having dug that further, it would've been easier from the Mint's side.
The reveal of the tunnel was a catalyst for suspense and assuring the safe route for the
fans' beloved characters.
Although if they've done the digging from day one, they wouldn't have needed the hostages
to move their money to their escape vault, leaving them completely oblivious and the
police would have to look around for themselves.
Secondly, they should've bombarded the stairs leading to the escape vault, all the more
ways to slow down the forces from getting them and providing them with an efficient
amount of time.
THE HANDCUFFS ON GANDIA WERE OPEN This was a directing mistake.
While filming a scene in part 4's episode 3, when Palermo beats up Gandia in sheer anger,
Gandia's handcuffs weren't even closed.
Though these mistakes can only be seen if you have a very keen eye or you just happened
to pause the episode right on that clips, or if you love to watch in very slow motion.
We see Palermo blatantly beat Gandia until Nairobi yells at Denver to stop him.
The screen then shows a bloody Gandia, whose hands are tied to a handle and cuffed.
While there's one scene where his hands are perfectly secure, the other scene shows his
handcuff coming off loose as Palermo strikes him with his cane.
GANDIA BEING SUPERHUMAN Okay if we take in the fact that Gandia was
a highly trained individual having the experience of a lifetime, working with black ops, etc.
how is it possible for him to escape each time unharmed, uninjured?
The first time he escapes with the help of Palermo by dislocating his wrists, he is not
affected in the aftermath and continues his advances towards the team easily.
After being discovered by the team he is chased down by them, bullets are fired towards him
multiple times, and not one strikes him.
The fans on Reddit were furious at how he was exposed completely and in the gang's range
but not one bullet hit him.
Moreover, how can a skilled assassin not know how to escape handcuffs or dislocate his hand?
THE MAIN ASSET IS NOT CONTRIBUTING TO THE PLOT
When you think of the robbers having an upper hand against the state in season 4, you probably
thought in the initial episodes that it must be the Governor but ironically the robbers
never play this card.
They spend a whole episode looking for the hidden panic room but not one of them suggests
asking the governor themselves.
The governor sat there being useless, if anyone on the team had even looked at him it would've
dawned on them to use him against Gandia who ended up killing Nairobi.
PALERMO CLAIMING HIS LOVE FOR THE PLAN BUT MESSING IT UP
In flashbacks when Berlin, Professor, and Palermo discuss the plan he swears his love
for it and his dedication to the plan.
He even says that he would betray the Professor but not their heist mission.
But when the team entrusts him with the hostages, he, like a little idiot focused on his petty
issues with the team, let's the man lose who is most likely to endanger their mission.
It wasn't like Gandio was begging to be released; Palermo acted on his nerves and let him go,
consequently sabotaging the whole 'plan' he was so in love with.
Tell us in the comments section if you noticed this plot hole as well in the Season 4 of
the show.
THE BURNING QUESTION OF TOKYO'S AGE
Though it is clear from the physical appearance that Tokyo is more than a decade older than
Rio who is just 19 years old, controversy in the dialogue has led to confusion.
In the first episode, it was shown that Tokyo is almost 12 years older than Rio but in further
episodes, while talking to Berlin, Rio is reminded that his girlfriend is almost 15
years older than him.
Now that's a huge mistake that most failed to notice.
The writers aren't even sure of Tokyo's age which is kind of funny.
I hope Rio is not as confused as I am right now.
These are some of the plot holes and direction faults.
Some fans find themselves pulling back however more and more people are being drawn towards.
With the release of season four in April this year, social media was flooded with Money
Heist content.
Aside from a few blank spots and loopholes, it is one of the best shows on Netflix and
has a dedicated fan base.
