6ixtynin9: The Series

These kind of series are not easy to make. Cohen brothers did it and now this is the next mark. Slow but enjoyable. The silence says a lot. A story about a package delivered to a wrong address and then all the twist and turns leads to a big big confusion. And yes its has a comical touch of afterlife and hilarious one. Overall the lead actress did a pretty good job with limited words expressed everything with her body language. It also have a lot of nudity and gives a complete touch to a dark comedy. The shooutout scene and all over the time taken to show it is perfect. I completely loved this series.

The Thais did it again. The description for this is accurate. It's a comedy, action and crime all rolled into one. A lady gets laid off from the company she works for and then opens her door to find a box with money in it. First 2 people that tried to retrieve it wound up dead and then the conga line of dead people continues as they not only try to get the money back but kill her also and they all fail. The ending wound up with a complete bloodbath. If there is a 2nd season to this series please release it quickly. I am still waiting for season 3 of girl from nowhere another Thai hit. I hope that either that was the ending or if they are going to continue not to wait to long. The lead actress is cute also. I am will be waiting to see what they do with this.

The title of the review pretty much suggests how subpar and uninteresting it was to watch this series, especially because the trailer and plotline had grabbed my interest quite a bit.

Thriller-mystery genre is easy to nail because of the fast pace of story, easy and attention grabbing plotline; and the nail-biting, heart escalating curiosity to conclude and reach climax. But unfortunately the story did not have a single quality as mentioned. It will be an understatement to say the least, that I felt like giving up straight after the first episode because the pace was slow, storyline felt weak from get go and failed to hook our attention and create the need to root for any character. You can literally skip majority of the scene (maybe even episodes, considering there there are only 6) and have no effect to the flow or continuity of the story. That is exactly how much the script lacks.

Despite of this issue I continued though the suffering in hope that it will pick up the speed.

Neither I got to know about the motivation of characters behind any action, nor could the storyline build any connection with any character that we should be invested in. The mystery component remained predictable and pointless to the highest extent. The adult and gore content that was shown barely had anything to do with the plotline. So much so that as a viewer it is impossible to decide where to label this series in terms of genre. There was a supernatural element attached to the story which also seemed pointless. The only redeeming quality was probably the camera work and to some extent the acting of the main lead. Over all it was a snooze fest and felt like a task to reach the end rather than entertainment

Overall the series could do better as a 20 minute short movie with the amount of plotline it was able to show over the course of 6 episodes.

When watching this series, one often wonders whether it is an exceptionally amateurish series or an eccentrically, good series. Just when you think you've found the answer, you have to change your mind again after a while. And Again and again.

The plot of the series is rather used. Nothing new there. It's more about the way it's done. Despite the initial faults, I ended up watching the whole series. Despite all its faults, it was entertaining. The series was also such that you could really expect anything from the next scene. This also made me want to keep watching.

The series had partly a weirdly good '80s synth soundscape. Unfortunately, this was not relied on enough, but was interspersed with traditional melodramatic piano thumping and strings. What a let down.

Series also featured the world's most picked door lock, the world's longest made tiny tattoo and the longest strangulation scene without death.

This is so brilliant it simply oozes cool from every single pore

The way the story unfolds the way actors move the scenes in heaven all of it is sheer brilliance I am now watching the 1999 film Ruang talok 69 (1999)it was based on

that too is pretty much the same but they updated it and wrote into it all the current dissent between the establishment and the youth very cunningly as almost any protest in Thailand is seen as a crime by mentioning by showing TV footage of the Hong Kong situation between the Chinese state and the students there.

So hardly any mention of the current chasm between the 20-year-olds and the geriatrics and Royal Court with its antiquated rules whereby criticising the king on Facebook can land you in prison for life and other ludicrous legislation which belongs to the Middle Ages.

The main actress Davika Hoorne here is absolutely excellent most of the other main players are also extremely good some of the scenes you're seeing there are so original to Western viewers That they will make your head spin.

• I've become instantly a fan.

Highly highly recommended. This is dark Humour at its best with the accent on humour.

PS and the soundtrack and use of incidental scores is corking all the way through.
