Apple TV From “Ocean’s Eleven” to “The Italian Job” to Netflix’s “Money Heist,” robbery has long been a major subgenre in film and television, and now Apple TV‘s “12 12 12” is delivering its own take. Created by Jim Keeble and Dudi Appleton, the high-voltage thriller follows disgraced FBI Agent Jack Strickland (Anthony Mackie), who, driven by rage and a desire for revenge, begins tracking known thief Paul Galvin (Jamie Dornan) across Europe after the biggest heist in the continent’s history. Instead of a straightforward narrative, “12 12 12” revolves around three stages of the heist: the 12 months Paul and his team spend planning the operation, the 12 hours it takes to execute their plot and the 12 days after the crime as Jack scrambles to bring them to heel. While the revolving timelines are certainly intriguing, the bloated cast, utterly confusing storylines and clumsy dialogue make for a painfully puzzling watch. ‘TK’
