Kaleidoscope: A New Heist Series with a Twist

Recently on weekends I have watched all episodes of Kaleidoscope a new Netflix heist series with a twist and new concept which is something new in cinemaverse.

At first I thought it is Netflix trying to create Hype and doing business like always and somehow their strategy worked and caught much attention in town.

The twist and interesting thing about this series is it can be watched from any order like skip episode 1, start from the middle 4th episode and with each episode you'll pick or finish it will all make sense with different perspective, different people but one condition is to watch final episode in the end which is about heist.

There's only 8 episodes and for me the suitable order to watch kaleidoscope was skipping first episode - "Violet 24 years before the heist" watch Episode 2 - Green; 7 Years before the heist and the 3 one.

And then I skipped episode 4 and watched all other episode sequence wise. Here's my review about this series.

---

This series isn't like every other typical heist series where someone is pissed off of government and stealing money to throw in public.

I Got attached with storyline from beginning and felt the emotions portrayed by characters.

Like always FBI was also on a mission to catch bad guys.

Plot was Good and to be honest heist didn't ended well or poorly written but I haven't cared about watching heist instead i was curious to know more about what will happen to the bad guy and other bad guy.

Character development was a real thing and become quite predicable at some point when story unfolded very soon. So, picking up decent order accordingly does matter.

I should've skipped episode 5 which is named after 5 days before the heist but it told a lot about relationships between two friends and what happened between them like everything. So, if you're watching it skip 5 episode and watch it before the heist.

Some viewers will find this Relatable story like it portrayed betrayal, vengeance and greed as well.

Netflix did a Good work with picking right cast. Giancarlo Esposito aka Gus Fring we all know from Breaking Bad series is playing lead role and all other characters played their role brilliantly like I haven't felt bored for a second also there was one scene where you'll see a reference of better call saul.

An interesting watch and time well spent on Netflix and a Good start of the year at their end too. Will rate this series a solid 8.1/10. Here's the official trailer of Kaleidoscope.
