What this series was was a non-traditional (for dramas of this class) look at life as affected by social media. SM played a crucial role in each and every life in this series, as it does today. How many of us are not affected by Twitter, InstaGram, Facebook, Line, YouTube and Tinder? How many of us do not live on these media and don't even know our next door neighbour?
A little dramatic at times, the characters are totally relatable in our modern context. The fact that they are University students and a little more mature than the other dramas being based in High School was quite a plus.
Again, I must hand it to the Thai's: they have product placement down. This time the adverts, ahm I mean product placements, were not quite as annoyingly placed as other drams which shall go unmentioned, but they are still quite noticeable. Good job though!
All in all a good drama to keep you busy in the downtime between Tweets, IMs, Lines and such. Well worth the watch!

The story was not just the run-of-the-mill predictable teen romance thing. It had plot and substance, just the right amount of humor which toned down in just the right time as the story arched. Kudos to such perfect timing! Even at the serious points the movie just hinted at perfectly timed comic relief which still developed the story. There was no needless filler, no wasted scenes, yet the main characters got their development almost fully.
The acting was superb! Casting was on the ball! All the actors filled their roles perfectly!
The music score was, again, on point.
If you are looking for a nice movie you could get into this is highly recommended! Just the right amount of comic relief, banter and life with some unexpected twists you won't see coming, but only add to the story!

While the theme is vampire it is more of a thriller than drama.
The originality of the story has to be the main selling point. Usually these stories do not develop in this fashion.
The story is very followable and flows from start to finish.
The only thing that needed improvement is a little more development of the Night character.
Overall an enjoyable, strange story.

Seemingly corny at first, the series does have some worth as a storytelling device.
The acting does have some awkward moments, but for the most part the actors are quite competent.
The inter-relationship between the cast members is also quite good, furthering the believability of the stories.
The music is nice and works.
Al in all worth watching.

OK. That being said, the movie was really great.
Absolutely loved Tan's behavior and mannerisms as a teenager. N' James was spot on with his acting. The writers hit a mark with his character!
P' Pok's acting was totally a wow factor. O my! She is totally amazing! Among some of the greatest in any country!
As always with this genre of movie it can be quite an emotional trip. Timeline is no different. All in all well worth watching!
