Critic Reviews
One Cent Thief (2022) Review: Small Change, Big Stakes
★★★★☆
One Cent Thief follows a debt-crushed bank clerk who skims a cent from every account, a brisk two-season Malaysian crime thriller led by a sympathetic Syafiq Kyle.
Yes. It is a slick, fast-moving caper for fans of crime thrillers and heist stories, though its second season trades some of the first's intimacy for bigger set-ups.
