Six Four

I found this show to be highly engaging, thanks in no small part to the standout performances from McKidd and Coyle. With its bleak atmosphere, intricate plot, and ample intrigue, it evokes the feel of a Scandinavian crime drama.

Based on Hideo Yokoyama's novel, the show successfully transports the action from Japan to Scotland. While the plot may not be the most original - after all, TV is full of thrillers centered around missing girls - the story moves at a satisfying pace and delivers plenty of thrilling moments over the course of its four episodes. What sets it apart is its ability to balance visceral interpersonal emotion with genuine thrills, a feat that's never easy to pull off.

Was an ok drama only 4 episodes so not to drawn out. The story just wasn't the best. Wouldn't say it was nail biting stuff. Not sure the end was the outcome I would have wanted. But did expect that it would be the outcome. Maybe leaving it open so that they can continue and have another series. I probably would watch another series of it. There probably would be enough to have another one. Liked the actors in the drama nice to watch something set in Scotland with nice Scottish accents. It's nice to see places that you can recognise in a drama. James cosmos is always good as is Kevin Mckidd. Always like to watch a Scottish drama x.

I love British cop series. This is not one of the best I have seen, although it certainly maintains the tension until the end. The majority of the series is filmed in Scotland. The photography and landscapes are wonderful!

This one is about cold cases, dealing with a case for a missing girl called Julie Mackie, from 16 years ago. I would have used Scottish folk music, the soundtrack is a bit strange and sometimes doesn't fit with the scenes. Although I noticed it, it didn't bother me too much.

The story is exciting from the beginning, although as it progresses it becomes predictable, with several unexpected surprises as well. Well, I have mixed feelings about this series, since it could have been better by changing two important things, more passion in the actors and a story with more strength, I mean roughness and violence, the topic asks for it!

I also think that a second season can be made as some questions have been left unanswered. It felt as if four episodes were quite short and the plot could have been extended further. Although some actors may be quite distant, the series seems quite realistic to me, nothing exaggeratedly acted.

In short, I definitely recommend it, it is entertaining and has very good moments. Without forgetting to mention again the magnificent Scottish landscapes.

British Miniseries review: Six Four streaming on BBC Player ( U will need to subscribe to it as an add-on to ur prime video subscription)

This four part British Miniseries follows the lives of 2 police officers ( husband- wife) as they try to get to the bottom of their teenage daughters sudden disappearance. Is this case related in some way to a similar disappearance that happened 16 yrs ago. As the 2 officers start investigating, a lot of dirty secrets of the rich and powerful stumble out of the closet.

Will the truth ever come out & justice be served?

Set in Edinburgh & Glasgow, cinematography is great , the beautiful locales have been showcased wonderfully!!

Coming to the plot, it is slow to start off with, u also tend to question the purpose of a few subplots without any consequence that tend to lead u astray from the main plot . However it ends well with "Poetic Justice" being served eventually.

Based on a Japanese Novel , Six Four is a decent investigative crime thriller with Kevin McKidd ,James Cosmo & Richard Coyle essaying noteworthy performances. Tobby Stevens ( Bond villain in Die Another Day) is unfortunately wasted in a two minute role !!

Not the most original story, however the dark undertones in the plot along with some decent twists & turns will give u a satisfied feeling in the end !! You can binge watch it in a day as it has 4 episodes with each episode having a runtime of around 45 mins !!

Going with 3/5 for this one.. Adios 🙂!!
