Seis nueve: La serie

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 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.

Just came out of netflix today out of the blue and i just watch the first 30 minutes if its any good and boy this Series from thailand is just crazy. I will binge watch it because it only has 6 episodes. Just like in the description of the series that her life goes upside down when she receives a package in her front door after getting laid off from her job. Every episode so far im like how is she gonna get out of this mess. Whoever wrote this script and directed should be applauded for the story, plot, great acting and something new to offer. This is the first film from thailand that i really really like. Usually movies from Thailand that comes out are ghost, romantic type stuff but this series blows my mind away. Im the first one to review this series and i havent even finished yet and i think the last 2 episodes will be a cliff hanger.

The title pretty much says it all. "6ixtynin9" is a story about a woman who recently got laid off from her job and finds a mysterious parcel outside her door. This event triggers a ripple effect that affects the lives of many groups of people in the span of just 24 hours.

It's an eccentric and delightfully dark and offbeat series that exceeded my expectations, with the occasional well-known Thai humor that lightens the mood. While it ventures into the realm of being downright absurd at some parts, there isn't a moment that bores me.

You'll like it if you love quirky and dark films like "Snatch."

This series portrays Thai culture to the max! There is bribery with bags of money. There is an insurance company where the employees wear orange jackets. During the pandemic, in Thailand insurance companies almost went broke with all the Covid insurance payments they had to make. One did go bankrupt. The government had to force them to make payments. In the series they mention the saying "juh jai jop." It doesn't translate as funny in English "get Covid, insurance pays, end." All this from real life was used in the series, although it doesn't translate well. However in the Thai language it is hilarious. TH Dave Chaichanbutr as Sonny is great! He is in the police force in real life. He's not an actor! All the actors did an excellent job. The series had subtle humor and reflected the many quirks of Thai life, from people playing chess all day in a parking garage, to the different groups wearing different color uniforms, to the giggling girls who turn nasty - but it's so funny! Of course, meanwhile, protests are going on. Director Pen-Ek Ratanaruan did a magnificent job, especially since this is a remake of his old movie. He made it into so much more. It's great!
