Secuestro del vuelo 601

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.

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.

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.

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.

"Flight 601" takes viewers on a turbulent journey through the harrowing events of a real-life hijacking, offering a glimpse into the chaos and uncertainty faced by those onboard. While the premise holds promise, the film's execution often veers into the realm of incredulity, leaving audiences questioning the veracity of certain events depicted on screen. This ambiguity between fact and fiction can be both intriguing and frustrating, as viewers grapple with discerning what is true and what is embellished for dramatic effect.

The film's strength lies in its ability to capture the tension and fear experienced by the passengers and crew during the hijacking. The claustrophobic atmosphere aboard the aircraft, combined with the constant threat of violence from the hijackers, keeps viewers on the edge of their seats throughout. However, these intense moments are often undercut by implausible plot developments or unrealistic character actions, detracting from the overall impact of the story.

Despite its flaws, "Flight 601" does offer some compelling performances from its cast, particularly in portraying the resilience and courage of those caught up in the crisis. The emotional depth conveyed by the actors helps to humanize the otherwise chaotic and surreal events unfolding on screen, drawing viewers further into the narrative.

Ultimately, "Flight 601" is a film that requires a certain level of commitment from its audience. While its basis in true events may initially lend it credibility, the liberties taken with the source material may leave some viewers feeling frustrated or misled. Nevertheless, for those willing to overlook its shortcomings, "Flight 601" offers a gripping if somewhat uneven cinematic experience.
