Lupin Part 4

The Verdict

100 percent from critics. 13 percent from early fans. Same show, same week, and neither number survives much scrutiny, which is exactly why Part 4 lands at a solid 8 out of 10 in the middle.

What Works

Omar Sy still owns this role, confident in every room and vulnerable where his family is concerned. The copycat setup gives him a fresh problem too: Assane is in prison, framed by someone using the Lupin name for simultaneous museum heists, so the master thief has to outthink his own legend. Paris at night and the bigger set pieces help, but Sy is the engine.

What Doesn't

Scale is the trade off. The Guardian flagged a more superhero feel, with bigger tech, deepfakes and hacking replacing the quiet sleight of hand that made the early tricks so satisfying. A retired legend pulled back for one more job is also a familiar shape, and viewers who spot it early will spot it here.

Is It Worth Watching?

The chart win was real even if the scores were noisy. Part 4 took number one worldwide within two days, dethroning Below after three weeks on top, on a series that has passed 100 million views in total. That reach is earned, though a global weekend does not settle quality on its own.

Who Should Watch It?

Queue it from Part 1 if you love stylish heists, a hero who wins by thinking faster, and subtitles that keep Sy's performance intact. Skip it for now if you need airtight realism, want small and quiet capers only, or hate starting a part with no confirmed Part 5.

Final Verdict

Think of it as a very good season wearing an oversized coat. The premise is sharp, the lead is magnetic, and the bloat is real. Fans and critics each got half the story.
