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.
