From the very first minute, I had a question about the skill of reincarnation. It's good that Dwayne the Rock Johnson was not put on the main role, in order to show special invisibility, the ability to disappear into the crowd :)
Nevertheless, the idea with the book is interesting, we'll see if he can come up with new things or repeat the old ones...

I have not read books on this character, but it feels like some ideas were clearly taken from books a century ago, because even when trying to modernize them, they now look too naive in places.

But in general, you can watch, Omar Xi's charisma is in place and shot decently.

PS
The trailer may give the impression that this is a miniseries with a complete story, but there will be at least 2 seasons and at the end of the first season you will find a cliffhanger.

@vs40: I respect Omar Xi as an actor, but when I saw that there would be a series about Arsene Lupin, I was a little shocked (considering that I read about him as a child, somehow my image did not fit). And only today I saw that he was not talking about Arsen himself, but about a person inspired by him - then there are no problems at all

@Xenobait: I haven't read books, and I haven't watched anime, but of course I've heard about this interesting character. So according to the descriptions of the series, I wondered what Arsene Lupin had to do with it. But the first episode really put everything in its place.

It's understood, of course, that now that cop will be on his tail. And this woman did not appear in vain. I hope they're the only ones who won't be given a love line.
And then either his wife or daughter stole the necklace. Although, the head of the family himself could have initiated all this in order to receive money (it was said that everything was bad with his business).

And I totally approve, even though the series took a different path.
But the character of the series has the right to be one - Arsene Lupin. It's a great move by the creators, and it's even realistic. Not in terms of methods, but the approach itself.
It's very romantic, and Omar Si's Kharkov is gorgeous.

But I was surprised that the access control system at our factory is stricter. a guard stands and checks the identity of each person who has passed with the image on the monitor. there is little chance of passing through someone else's pass. But in the most famous museum in the world, and on the day of the auction - no problem!

The plot of the first episode is very good. The French know how to make good movies.
But the main character is not Arsene Lupin, even though he considers himself to be one. He's just copying a book character. Even the robbery is copied from the book. And with the name, how did he slip up that the policeman immediately found out about Lupin. He set himself up.
Arsene Lupin was a master of disguise. Devilishly cunning and clever. Who will the huge, dark-skinned bully Omar Si transform into?
But nevertheless, the series is not bad and I liked the first episode.

It was beautifully shot, the actors played well. but the plot and its presentation are a silent horror. Solid flares for this genre.

For some reason, the first episode evoked an association with the first episode of Castle: There is also a writer and a crime copying a book, as well as a police officer who is a fan of this writer.
It's not that it's a "copy", it's just that Vibe caught it.;

But of course this is a robbery... the guards don't have guns, there are 2 cripples watching the necklace, even if the cameras are turned off, there are still questionably few guards;

If you find fault with it, then of course it is clear that there are too many mistakes, starting with theft, where it is easy to track the moment of substitution (40 years ago, yes, such theft may have taken place, but not with current technologies and level of protection), ending with how the auctioneer looks at prospective buyers from some Wikipedia. In reality, yes, there would not be a couple of weak guards at an auction where they present a lot of 20+ lakhs, but this is a movie. Moreover, the series does not pretend to the reality of the events, not even a hint of them, but, on the contrary, filmed in homage to the book, the fictional hero. So, discarding all his bias, logic and the indignation of his grandfather, "lies! I don't believe it," I'm ready to continue watching and accept this picture as an unfounded, albeit naive story where a simple guy can bend the system and give justice to the offenders...

I started watching it at the age of 21 and abandoned it, continued at 23 and abandoned it again, and after the recent news about the Louvre robbery, I realized it was time to watch it in full :)

So far, gg is burning too much, but on the other hand, it really looks fresher and better than the eternally brilliant super-clever characters that every first one had in the 2010s.

I watched the whole season. The pilot seemed interesting, but then everything was blown away. My verdict: watch only if you're really hungry.

The ideas are really good — there are interesting clues and an attempt to spin a clever scheme.
But the implementation is so weak that it becomes physically difficult to watch.
The events take place in some kind of parallel reality, where the laws of logic and common sense simply do not work.
Absolutely all the surrounding characters behave as stupidly and unnaturally as possible, as if the scriptwriters had forgotten that people can think.
Don't even expect some kind of elegant intrigue in the spirit of Ocean's 11 Friends or an intense intellectual game like in Prestige.
Instead, you get a lot of frustration from ridiculous decisions and holes in the plot.
It's a pity for the time spent — there was potential, but the result was a failure.
