However, what’s unique about the entire thing is that they follow certain rules like no violence, no witnesses, and no deviations. Notably, Crime 101 centres on a thief named ‘Mike Davis’ (Chris Hemsworth), whose disciplined nature and calm precision immediately draw viewers to his character. On the other hand, detectives, ‘Lou’ (Mark Ruffalo) and ‘Tillman’ (Corey Hawkins) constantly struggle to catch him by following the pattern of his previous heists.
