One of the criminals ridicules Jesus, while the other admits that he is being punished for real crimes whereas Jesus committed none, and asks Jesus to remember him after death. It is not specified in The Bible which side the repentant criminal was on.

How many people were crucified alongside Jesus?
According the the Christian gospels, two other men were crucified with Jesus. These two men are variously described as thieves, criminals or rebels. Some fundamentalist Christians interpret the Gospels so that there were four men crucified with Jesus because of the different ways in which the men are described and because they take the Bible absolutely literally. So because one gospel says two "criminals" were crucified with Jesus and another says two "thieves" were crucified with Jesus there must have been four. Most people dismiss this and interpret the gospels more sensibly as there being only two other men crucified with Jesus.
