The Sticky' Is a Taut and Tasty Heist Thriller
Briefly

The Sticky cleverly builds its narrative around a bizarre heist with a tight timeline, making the most of its half-hour episodes for an engaging crime dramedy.
Margo Martindale shines as Ruth, a woman trying to navigate the syrup industry’s regulations, showcasing a blend of desperation and determination that captivates the audience.
Supporting characters, especially Guillaume Cyr’s Remy, add depth with their distinct quirks and vulnerabilities, making them feel relatable amid the chaotic heist unfolding.
Though the pacing keeps viewers engaged, some moments risk feeling oversimplified, reminiscent of playful exchanges in children's media, occasionally undercutting the story’s gravity.
