6/45 (2022)

One of the best comedy movies

The plot is simple, a lottery ticket scramble between South Korea and North Korea. But the story was successfully developed and presented with a very fresh comedy from the beginning to the end of the film! Let it be a comedy film, but it really feels and looks that this film is not a cheap film!

The comedic duo Go Kyung-pyo and Lee Yi-kyung as the main characters have no cure. Seeing them silent, I couldn't help but laugh. Moreover, all the character designs and supporting characters are really strong and the chemistry is really felt. Laugh until you cry.

The storytelling is also neat! This film takes 3 perspectives: South Korea, North Korea, and the perspective of the prize money taker. EVERYTHING is FUNNY until the details of the story are made hilarious.

Comedy is the main point of this film. Every moment of comedy that is shown is really strong and never fails to make the audience laugh.

In conclusion, 6/45 is a MUST watch movie with friends and family who enjoy comedy films. Those who are tired and need to laugh also have to watch this, alone it's also not a problem because it is guaranteed that you will be entertained.

Shock. Tension. Laughter. Repeat

The words above are the phases I've went through in every scene in this movie. The soldiers are doing all sorts of crazy stuff and I'm quite worried that they might get caught. And when they're caught off guard, everything becomes hilarious. Then I'd burst out laughing. Sure enough, this is the comedy film I've been looking for ages.

However, I would like to give a disclaimer to the international viewers who are interested to watch this film. This might affect their viewing experience but I hope it won't affect tho. They might find some statements and gestures they (even I) don't understand. These are nuances that are uniquely Korean which also vary from the North and the South. In order to address this, I merely focused on their delivery to enjoy my viewing experience.

Overall, it was an enjoyable experience to watch this film. Might watch it again when I feel sad lmao

Offered no original story, but definitely offered great comedy

Crash Landing On You meets Joint Security Area added with a comedic twist. I was reminded on these shows while watching 6/45. Basically, this movie replaces Yoon Se-ri from CLOY with a lottery ticket that lands in North Korea, while diffuses the aggresive tension between the North and South Korean soldiers when they met in contrast to JSA.

6/45 was nice in that it builds up the plot gradually. It introduced its main characters, the South Korean soldier Park Chun-woo (Go Kyung-pyo) and his North Korean counterpart Ri Yong-ho (Lee Yi-kyung), in a proper yet funny manner. Although the progression of the storyline itself was somewhat slow in the first half, the comedic tension between the two provided relief. Their encounters were already funny in itself, and when more people now knew about the lottery ticket on both sides, it became more hilarious, my stomach actually was hurt. Personally, the funniest side character was the most unexpected one. I was just gasping for air during his moments, and at times overshadowing some of his superiors in terms of execution of his comedic lines.

Was waiting for a shocking ending, but I was glad it ended the way it did, for the most part. Honestly, I can't say that I was fully satisfied with the ending maybe because of some loose parts. First, the movie could've created more build-up and screentime to the "villain" since honestly his characterization was just more of a story filler rather than part of the story itself. Second, the "romance" sub-plot ended rather vague, although it is possible due to the present circumstances of the two Koreas.

It is more satisfying to watch this movie without any expectations, since the comedy itself presented here is not new nor innovative. The story may be simple and at times hysterical, but what I appreciated the most here was the great comedic timing with the most hilarious delivery possible. Furthemore, I think that the humor in this movie would be appreciated more for those with background on inter-Korean politics and military and would try to imagine a funny film scenario about it, since 6/45 fits the criteria quite well. Otherwise, it is highly suggested to skip this.

After the post credits scene was shown, I had an ear to ear smile while also being curious as to what happened to all of them next. Generally, I had a fun time even though I was just expecting that I would pass time watching this movie. 6/45 offered no original story, but definitely offered great comedy.

Situational humor at its best.

I watched this for Lee Yi Kyung, cause him doing comedy can never go wrong but the show stealer is Kwak Dong Hyun by the end. He got the ending portion you couldn’t expect.

NK and SK fights are world known but for this lottery ticket, few of the military personnel of both countries join hands. They fight, agree, and disagree by finally making an alliance to be fair and the journey of frustration happens. There are some hilarious moments, which hurt my jaw from laughing. There is never a dull moment.

Go Kyung Pyo was silently hilarious but his farming skills were extraordinary. all the supporting characters are good too.
NK female soldier was so sweet and beautiful. Kwak Dong Hyun is winner.

Must watch for a stressful day.

This was actually cute, it became stressful with how funny it was cuz like 6m dollars isn’t small, and their switch and broken hand guy’s journey were hilarious

Tho it got a bit confusing at the end with their conversions, it was a fun watch eventho not much actually happened but it felt refreshing outlook

So like, each got 100k dollars? And did broken hand guy get the money from the lotto or did he sell it to the lady? The miss understanding was honestly hilarious like a crude joke but still funny cuz it didn’t actually go overboard

Anyway again like did they just accept the small amount cuz the big amount would’ve been a burden anyways 🤷‍♀️🤣
The villain dying was funny but again like, no one would wonder what happened? And the romance sadly flunking was sad tbh

I am lucky to watch this

After seeing a trailer with the legendary Gwaenchana YiKyung, I just can't pass watching the movie because I knew it would be fun.

The story premise is kind of unique because for once we have North Koreans portrayed lighter than the usual -- didn't even imagine NoKor to be associated with Comedy.

Most of the casts are familiar faces I have seen from other KDramas or KMovies and to be honest they look really fun together. The story itself is not realistic however the character portrayal is just top notch. Wait until you see the Rollin' Rollin' scene that made me literally roll from laughing.

Overall, this was a light watch. It's not the best I've seen but this is definitely worth a watch when you're feeling down or if you just want to relax and have some fun.
