Die Entführung des Fluges 601

I wasn't gonna review this series but there are so many moronic reviews that I just had to review it. It is not a comedy and the music is not cartoonish. Obviously those words were written by some white guy who doesn't understand the culture. The music was beautiful and fitting being that the series is from South America not the USA. The story was compelling and heartfelt. I didn't feel like the series dragged at all, it told the story as it happened with some added dramatization. It combines some funny moments with the seriousness of the situation and it does have its heart wrenching moments, all good series do. Maybe it didn't deserve a 10 but it was given to counter some low scores. Definitely recommend this series, I binged it in one day. Worth the watch.

I usually do not like two aspects of this kind of shows...

First, real life events. Second, Colombian series. However, this show has so much to say. I loved this sbow. It was engaging from beggining to end.

The show follows Edilma, Barbara, the pilots and the hijackers. This show give us everything we need. The drama, the action, the tension. I have never felt so much tension like I did in episodes 2 and 3. Then after episode 4, it becomes a show about injustice. This show has so much to say, and of course it is dramatic. That's the whole latin essence.

I would recommend everyone to look for herself this show. It gives you a look into how hard it is the latin american culture. Some people jus have to work so much harder than other to survive.

I really enjoyed watching this series. On the one hand it's a drama but it also has moments of comedy and lots of humanity as well. And the story it's based on is fascinating as well. There are multiple stories about the different characters entwined and the characters are mostly likeable and relatable. The acting is pretty good. I watch a lot of Spanish movies and series to practice my Spanish and this is one that I really enjoyed. I think the script writers did a good job of taking the original story and turning it into a series that kept your attention until the end. I recommend it but your mileage may vary.

This drama started really well only for it to fissile out at episode 4 when the focus of the episode was on the Hi-jackers themselves. So here we have a drama of a dramatic real life hi-jacking of a plane in the early 70's the mistake of this drama was the story order as the focus of episode 4 should have been at the start i.e episode 1. To shovel in the back story halfway through the series considering you are telling a real life event only leads to confusion and disengagement on the viewer. So with Ep 4 out of the way the story gets back on track somewhat but seems by episode 6 it has become too over dramatic and too much poetic license has been used, the over use of swearing too (and I don't mind bad language) was not necessary I would have scored this higher if it was shorter as the acting was very good. .

It is a shame most of the feeling and acting of the scenes gets lost amidst a poor translation. Netflix should Hire people who really know how to translate, watching this show close captioned in English was painful. I know Colombians swear a lot but more than half of the time idioms and bad words were omitted,or, swapped for things that made less sense than if they made a better effort trying to be more accurate translating. Definitely saving English speaking people from reading a little bit more but also denying them from learning all cool sayings and jokes depicted during the developing of the series. It gives a clear look of Colombian inherent creativity to express ourselves in a very characteristic way.
