Why is the picture so blurry?
I'm at the end of the first episode on Gagaoolala, 1080px, but I'm already on the verge of dropping it.In most scenes, only the close-up shots are in focus, and often even those aren’t sharp.
I get that this is a film composition style, but this way, the picture is unenjoyable, it's making me physically uncomfortable.

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.

NC on the first episode doesn't feel right for me. I lost interest right away, I couldn't continue and focus on their acting because all I could remember was them banging each other. Why is it that the BL nowadays is just focusing on NC? can't we have a series with a meaningful story? Actors facial expression is so nonchalant, I don't know, I'll try again the next episode but I hope I won't end up dropping it. Was this review helpful to you?
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. 🔥Was this review helpful to you?

Complex!!
I always see a lot of people complaining that the story isn't there or there's only NC scenes, but that's not true in the slightest!! If you're confused about the story then you're not paying attention, the NC scenes are absolutely necessary because they speak a lot about the characters. sure, you could say Tonkla is some sex crazed guy, but those scenes show his desperation for intimacy and love. I think the WinTonkla storyline is the only thing keeping me from dropping the show, I find Tonkla so interesting & I absolutely love Win. GreatTyme are good too, I'm just not one for the time-travelling plots so their story doesn't really connect with me that much.none of that is to mention how absolutely fucking incredible all of the actors are!! Bible, Jes, Fuiaz, Jjay, and the others have smashed it so far, I'm excited to see if the ending is as 💔 as everyone is predicting!!

Best BL
BL of the year 🤩Wonderful plot, acting, cinematography, costume, everything is top notch.
First time it feels like the plot is actually plotting. This series is not like other typical bl drama, it has its different aura and quality which will attract you and make you crave more and more.
A little spoiler -Bible's (main lead) cat Akira is debuting in 4 minutes the series 😁

I'm really disappointed overall, from feeling sick with the low quality cgi to taking nc scenes to "another level" it was actually the acting that put me off or should I say stiff pouty Bible. I had high hopes and I feel cheated right now. Fuaiz and Bas were a good surprise.

Espetacular, diferente do que eu esperava
Comecei a assistir com receio, antes de começar tinha uma visão de q a história seria só "safadeza", mas decidi dar uma chance e ainda bem que dei essa chance!!Eu adorei esse bl, me surpreendeu de todas as formas. Tem uma história fora do comum, muito cativante que te faz querer saber mais, uma produção incrível e uma atuação impecável de todos os personagens. Fiquei prendida do começo ao fim e não vou mentir que precisei de ver uns comentários pra entender o enredo final da série.
Não vou me prender muito sobre como é a história pq não vou saber explicar melhor do que a sinopse, mas é definitivamente um dos melhores bls do ano e que vale muito a pena assistir, sensacional!

Interesante historia
Lo que destaco de esta serie es la historia en sí, con una premisa original que te mantiene atenta a cada detalle porque al pasar los capítulos esos pequeños detalles cobran un significado importante para armar la historia y conectar cada subtrama.Por otro lado, las actuaciones estuvieron a la altura, cada personaje con su complejidades y sus matices.
Por último, para mí falto un poco más de desarrollo en el romance entre la pareja principal pero aún así me gustó verlos juntos ya que se sentía genuino lo que sentían.

10/10 A captivating storyline with a clear message
Minutes once again proves that BL series can explore captivating narratives beyond the typical romance tropes we often see.The Story: Speaking of the plot, 4 Minutes is an incredibly well-thought-out story. The "4 minutes" concept, along with the different characters' experiences, made it deeply emotional and, at times, heartbreaking.
Great, desperately trying to change the past and fix his mistakes.
Korn, longing to escape his old life and run away with Tonkla, the man he truly has feelings for.
Tyme, yearning for a better, more fulfilling past with Great.
A special mention goes to Win, who wasn't a winner, but in fact ironically the biggest loser in the series. Win, a police officer, who deeply loved Tonkla, someone who attempted to murder no less than three people, someone who's heart already belonged to Korn, someone who only slept with him as a way to cope with his grief of losing his brother Dome.
Win's tragic arc climaxed in him accidentally shooting Tonkla, the very person he loved. This ultimately resulted in a Romeo and Juliet-like tragedy, with Korn taking his own life after losing the person he couldn't imagine living without.
Korn's prestory was equally heartbreaking. As a brother, he carried the heavy burden of their parents' shady business dealings, all to protect his younger brother, Great. He even went as far as agreeing to marry a woman he didn't love, sacrificing his own happiness and abandoning his true love, Tonkla, in the process.
The Cast: Jes and Bible were nothing short of fantastic.
Considering this is their first series, they absolutely nailed their performances. Seeing Bas step into such a contrasting role after KinnPorsche was refreshing, and it only reinforced the idea that we need to see more of the KinnPorsche cast in varied roles. A special shout-out goes to whoever cast Fuaiz. He perfectly portrayed a character shaped by a troubled home, trusting only his brother Dome, and ultimately becoming someone broken by desperation and revenge. His journey from finding love and stability with Korn to becoming a character driven to murder was portrayed with chilling authenticity.
NC Scenes: The NC scenes were surprisingly explicit, but each one felt intentional and necessary to the storytelling of the characters and their emotional arcs. For instance, the chronologically first NC scene between Tonkla and Korn in their first encounter wasn't just about intimacy - it was about trust, stability, and comfort in a relationship that had just begun to take shape. Later, we see Tonkla turning to Win as a way to cope with the immense grief of losing his brother, Dome, showing how far the character had fallen emotionally. And then there's the beautiful, intimate scene between Great and Tyme in Greats alternate timeline, where their love is finally allowed to blossom after Great's successful attempt to save Nan.
Cinematography & Soundtrack: Visually, the show was a treat. The cinematography, the framing of each shot, and the choice of music were impeccably paired with the emotions of every scene. Everything felt deliberate and meaningful. Especially the last scene of Ep. 8 of Great and Tyme laying on the boat was such a great homage to the truck scene in KinnPorsche. And let's not forget Jes singing the KinnPorsche OST "Why Don't You Stay" in his Characters 4-minute moment-it left me absolutely in tears.
Final Thoughts: 4 Minutes is a masterpiece in every sense.
It's the kind of BL that seeks an audience willing to engage with the complexity of the plot, one who doesn't mind being left with questions after each episode.
The Message: The series leaves a powerful takeaway: Live your life fully. Don't leave things unresolved. Fix the things you can, and never leave words unsaid with those you love.
