4 Minutes (2024)

A Good Story, Well Narrated

This was actually a good thriller. A good story well narrated. A smart film, probably not meant for everyone.

I liked the freshness of the narrative. That's because I couldn't predict the next things to come, which I found refreshing. At some point I thought they were mocking my brains because some twist of events seemed illogical. But in the next episode, it became clear that the apparent nonsense wasn't a nonsense at all. I had a burning question for an episode or two, but afterward, I understood that the explanation was there all the time. It appears that I was somewhat misled by the rapid pace and intensity of the show and mistaken that explanation for hints. I also liked the attention given to the details, the symbolism used throughout the entire series, the fact that everything was well thought, well-designed, the logic was flawless and everything fell into place in terms of logical deduction. To me, it almost felt like the filmmakers were mathematicians. :-D :-D

The acting was very good, and the direction was superb.

Having included Vivaldi in the OST tracks automatically grants a 10 mark from me. But generally speaking, the music was good, well-chosen, and well-matched to the scenes. Also, it doesn't have too much of it, so it's not redundant or annoying.

I will definitely watch this show again because I'm sure I'll notice details that I missed the first time.

Amazing show

Amazing show. Seriously, if you have short attention span this show is going to mess with your head. Me personally, I enjoy this kind of genre and actually understood everything once this series wrapped its ending. The fact that they dont even give us a preview for next episode was kinda thrilling. Once a week per episode also gave me enough time to go to reddit or tumblr to indulge with others, discussing about each episode, about what we viewers could’ve missed, what could happen next and what to expect. Some theory were a spot on and some were not ?

Cinematography, chef’s kiss. The camera work was amazing. I even follow their cinematographer on ig just to follow through whats his next project’s going to be.

Actors, also amazing. They delivered every scene so well, even the supporting actors are amazing.

Writers and directors both are woman and they are doing a splendid job with 4minutes. All the crews behind the scenes also seem so chill and they know what are they doing, so very professional.

Anyway, im giving it a perfect score

4 Minutes is definitely a must-watch.

To begin with, let’s respect and show support for these actors who participated in these NC scenes. It’s not easy for anyone to do it, especially if it’s their first time. While some dramas use NC scenes to compensate for the plot, 4 minutes does not do that at all. The NC scenes compliment/coincide with the drama as a whole. The plot, the acting, the chemistry are all amazing. I definitely recommend watching this series if you haven’t yet. This show displays perfectly the difference between real and ideal. What would you do if you knew what was going to happen? Would your actions truly lead to a good end? Even if you tried your best to do what was right, was it really the correct choice in the end?

Whatever you do, you can't change what is destined to happen!

A story of a lost soul who tries to make things right in the present after being in the future for 4 minutes. 

It had a grand start filled with thrills, naked white butts, and lots of anticipation of great content. Another BL with a time travel theme got me interested in watching. It was going very well; I understood what was going on and created a link in my mind. But soon after episode 4, things started going downhill. I lost track of what was going on and totally got confused with the storyline. If I were to name a drama as a show-off, then this is the shinning example of it. Wait, this is literally synonymous to BOC now!

Even though I understood what was happening at the last 4 minutes of EP 8, in general the story feels like a fever dream where you feel like you understand the situation but still can't figure out what and why that is happening. And after waking up, you completely forgot what it was all about. The storyline is so erratic that I lost interest in the middle. There were different storylines, and they wanted to give attention to every one of them, but while doing that, they lost the actual significance of the show. Maybe it's not that complicated, but sure, it is confusing. Still, I watched it because I wanted to reach the conclusion. So I can't really point out what I liked or disliked, as I feel like I'm in a daze to conclude anything. 

It had a big budget, great artists, and beautiful and aesthetic cinematography, but it fell short in terms of storytelling and binding the whole thing together. Again, it is proved that BOC failed to deliver a compelling story and tried to hide it with NC scenes and handsome faces. I had high expectations, but now I'm utterly disappointed. I can't rate this show high just because of its high content value. I do enjoy the complicated storylines, but I can't lose my brain cells over 8 episodes of content. Maybe I'm too dumb for this; it's not for me.

Absences of story

This is the most nonsense series I ever seen. Where is the main ? Its been two episodes we have no idea what happening. There is some random actions going on background that might or might not converge at the end so we won't get clear story line because it is not important? All I saw is that main point of this series is that is Great Tyme gonna have sex in upcoming episodes nothing else. If thats was the story why we need all that dark action on background? Is this a rom com with off vibes. The absolute disconnect this mediocre series. Even actors themselves have no idea what this series is about. Why should I waste my time for boring series with no plot just for forced looking nc scenes? Jes Bible have no chemistry it's painful to watch their brotherly flirting sammon should have written a proper story but she's bad at writing i guess because what even is this series even , empty story just to fill up gaps between sex scenes. Anyways everyone you yapp about this being the best are either obsessed with Build or just wanna see porny nc scenes, nothing else.

This is definitely not a regular BL series.

Perfectly delivered compelling plots and actors,who are spectacular at conveying their characters' emotions,with top notch chinematigraphy, , breathtaking visuals, meticulous script..Every single details was deeply portrayed. If anyone loves new things this story is enough to drag them into their world. The vibe of German web series' dark'was the first thing that caught my attention.They uses reference from "inception 20210."As my preference is suspense, psychological elements, thriller and dark mystery in every part of fiction then '4 minutes' is definitely for those people like me. I'm stunned to see adding my favourites in my favourite (bl). It's a overwhelming happiness that can't be described. No repeating plot points and detours through side stories that do not pertain to the main plot. The story revolves around 4 minutes that is explained with proper term . Every coin has two sides so the negative point of this series for me was nc scenes.I skipped most of them and that wasn't my concern anyway. I repeat it's the only negative point to me. But no one can't deny the fact that those ncs' were better than western also. To sum up BOC always keeps international level so definitely they will put some international quality in nc scenes. They didn't even sell it to another company. That's what calls professionalism.
To those who are stuck with anything and Lost the ability to accept good things should stay away from this series.
To sum up if you're not ready to explore please stay away. No need to hate or spread negativity. When you already know it isn't your type or something you have option to not watch. Don't ruin thier hard work and effort unreasonably.

One of the Bl series of 2024

I think we all know that Bible's acting is top notch. That's we have been waiting for him since the end of Kin Porsche. Apart from everyone did a awesome job. Main lead ( Bible and Jes) have awesome chemistry. But the side couple chemistry is good but it's problematic also as the actor who's playing "Tonkla" is underaged he's barely 18 rn. I think Be on cloud entertainment should do something with casting barely 18. If they cast they shouldn't give them 18+ scenes. So, it's the only thing which was a little bit draw back to me. But apart from this it's a really awesome series to everyone did a amazing job. Special shoutout to the aesthetic it's awesome. ?

confusing plot, bad chemistry, bad acting, too much NC scene

confusing plot, bad chemistry, bad acting, too much NC scene
up until this momment i write this review, there is no one that really explain to me what is the 4minutes plot. i guess not all people get the storyline. its look like the title 4 minutes its not match with the storyline. everything doesnt make any sense.
the main couple face too look a like, both look like brother than a lover so its very hard to imagining them together as a lover. the chemistry is 0. their nc scene is meh for me. not adding any plot and no chemistry at all. the main couple storyline is too force, flat and blend. no dinamic. after all i dont like it at all.
