Graeme Blundell The Australian 12/28/2021
A comedy mystery caper drama Lupin drew on the French attitude to both immigration and racism, while at the same time celebrating the mystique of literary legacy. Go to Full Review
Hugo Rifkind The Times (UK) 12/09/2021
Lupin is good stupid fun and really taking off. It's inspired by Arsène Lupin, a fictional gentleman thief who is a bit like Raffles but French. It is also, though, a bit like Ocean's Eleven, minus ten. Go to Full Review
Judy Berman TIME Magazine 07/29/2021
Lupin ranks among the most bingeable TV series ever made. The first three out of five episodes that dropped this month, all directed by Louis Leterrier, are master classes in slick, glamorous suspense. Go to Full Review

"While it's an intriguing crime caper. it's really about putting multicultural face on what it mean to be French today - since the archetype has changed." Go to Full Review

Sergio M @NanoFurioso 2d Esta muy bien, para todos los publicos, de verdad que sin ser nada del otro mundo esta muy entretenida y divertida. Es la serie perfecta para ver con tus hijos See more Robin M Sep 1 Absolute must-watch for every detective lover. See more Phoëbe B Jun 17 Omar Sy joue toujours ses rôles à merveille. Il sait faire preuve d'empathie et fait de son mieux pour rendre les choses aussi réalistes que possible. C'est pourquoi j'aime regarder les séries/films dans lesquels il joue le rôle principal. Lupin a un scénario passionnant inspiré d'un livre d'Arsène Lupin. Assane joue le rôle principal (Omar Sy) et veut se venger de la famille Pelligrini qui a tué son père. On y trouve de l'action et du mystère, mais aussi de l'amour et de la protection. La série se compose de quelques épisodes par saison, avec une tension générée à chaque fois. Cela m'a donné envie de continuer à la regarder. See more Enzo D 12/02/2024 Incredible! Great series. An incredible storyline. See more Ted B @Movieaddicted 09/10/2024 4.5 stars; I have to agree with the critic who says it's one of the most bingeable series in a long time. I missed it when it first came out. All my friends were raving about it, but I happened to be watching another series at the time. So now that I've gotten around to watching it, I am hooked. The first night I was up until 2 a.m. binging on the first three chapters. It is so addictive. Omar Sy is perfect in pitch and pacing. I am anxious to get started on Part 2. See more no w 07/29/2024 i disliked it so much, i think it's just bad, not well made at all. it's also probably because i read all the books when i was younger and i don't like this adaptation of them, also the serie isn't well made at all in my opinion so i won't continue this. i am french and i love Omar Sy but this ain't it for me, i'm glad it met this much success tho See more Read all reviews
