Die Entführung des Fluges 601

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.

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. .

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.

Not worth it. Spare yourself the pain. Should have been a movie or much much shorter drama.

The acting was really good.

The swearing was unnecessary.

The 4th episode was a massive waste of time.

Just wanted the whole thing to end.

I now need to add more characters to this review just to ensure that it is uploaded and therefore stands the chance of diverting a few unsuspecting strangers from a true life drama that should have been much better.

I would have preferred a less dramatical version and rather a pure documentary. If you're hoping for a documentary then please note: this is not a documentary.

The series start very well, about the real story how the plane was hijacked in the 70s in South America. Then comes episode 4 and story rhythm is broken and series is actually divided into two parts. The 4th episode about how these crazy sort of revolutionaries are made is really unnecessary because it tells the banality that our past puts impact on our future. And this banality actually dooms the following episodes. Suddenly it's hard to understand motives of hijackers and crew actions and the ending of the series is very weird. I am also tired of modern concept about stupid cowardly men and brave heroic women. Another example how to ruin a potentially good series.
