Bitcoin Heist (2016)

Film Number 13 in Blair’s March Around the World, 2018

Country: Vietnam

I’ll be honest here, finding a movie on Netflix Instant called BITCOIN HEIST made me laugh and laugh. I actually made this discovery last year but this seemed like the best month to see a movie from Vietnam for the first time. What a loony film this turned out to be; I am not fully sure they understood everything about bitcoins and QR codes. Then again, most people don’t… me included. I suppose that’s why this is set in the far-flung future of 2020 (!); it is an excuse for how they explain cryptocurrency and some of the wacky technology that is used.

In the end it isn’t…
