Expectations fulfilled
When the trailers were released initially, the storyline was action filled and intense. The actual end result is still very intense with more comedy involved than originally projected. The acting is excellent. The comedy interjects a change of pace between the more intense moments. I understand employing Porsche as a fresh element hopefully not influenced to spy on the "main" family. The first kiss and the first sexual encounter were both under the influence of alcohol and later drugs. The lack of clear consent in the sexual encounter was concerning, but the sexual tension and sensuality were intoxicating. Porsche's frequent drunkenness is somewhat unbelievable since his role of bodyguard is so critical to Kinn's well-being. However, Porsche's playfulness and mild contempt for authority is an appealing part of his character. Kinn seems narcissistic but occasionally the storyline gives an impression of a deeper story. I'm only 5 episodes into the series, but I'm definitely hooked.Considerați utilă această recenzie?
One of the best BL watched till now...
I love beautiful BL stories but not always the fluff. This BL series gives you butterflies with its stories, production, action, and its executions. All the actors are great. This is the first time am like stuck in a BL world and can't do normal stuff...It's always on the mind. Highly recommended but make sure you read the tags as it has mafia, action, and many other such tags which many times can be not your cup of tea. But it's a fictional story which I enjoy as I enjoy reading any story/novel But seeing it on screen is on another level experience. Hats off to the whole team...Considerați utilă această recenzie?

Ohh My God! Talk About Delivering on a Promise…
I remember watching the preview on Youtube and being completely blown away. Well here we are almost two years later and the completed series is blowing me away. Let's just say the producers are not pulling any punches. They went all out. Four episodes in and the romance between Kinn and Porsche is through the roof. After watching several reaction videos on Youtube I knew the time had come for me to hall out my credit card and pay for my subscription to IQiyi so that I could enjoy full screen, complete episodes. Imagine that…the KinnPorsche series caused me to subscribe to a channel.The delivery of Porsche's character is so well done. He is a wonderfully, smiling screw-up which makes him completely charming and endearing. And—Kinn's protectiveness of Porsche is making me drool. I simply love it.
I will be quite honest, I am somewhat terrified of the possible ending of this series. It is after all very "mafia-esque" in its delivery so I don't see them happily riding off into the sunset. Though, if I had my own way, that is how I would end the series.
If you have not watched it yet, the end of episode four is a must. I have rewatched it about ten times already. Porsche's doped-up character makes the scene so wonderfully charming.
I am truly looking forward to the rest of this series even though I am apprehensive about the end.

KinnPorsche
Every thing about this show is just stunning. The actors, the plot, the music, and the scenery. One of my (and a large portion of drama lovers) most anticipated series. I have had to stop watching it as soon as it's coming out because I can't possibly wait another week for the next episode to come out. So far I have only watched four of the six episodes that have aired. I know that there are novels to go with the show and that the show is based of off them. I have heard that there is a lot of universally disliked elements about the novels, so I don't believe that I am going to read them granted I am still able to enjoy the show. I have also heard from netizens that the producers of the show have fortunately decided to terminate or rewrite most of disliked scenes from the show as they possessed scornful qualities. The novel participated in the bashful theme of romanticizing rape (which is the main reason why I will not be reading the novels) and thankfully the Be On Cloud producers have decided to do away with most of that concept.Anyway, that is my deal with this show, I am very impressed at how the company has produced the few episodes that I have watched and I am anticipating the next episodes to come.
10/10 would recommend.

Raised the bar immensely for future BL expectations.
Words cannot describe this show's magnificence; I love it. The chemistry between each cast member is outstanding. I love how P'Mile and P'Apo can stand there saying nothing, and you can see their emotions and all the unsaid words reflected through their eyes. This show has raised the bar for what I expect in terms of quality, acting, chemistry etc. I don't know how to watch other shows now if it does not reach the level that Kinnporsche has set. The cinematography is crazy; I cried like a baby in episode six, which extended to the side story we were blessed with. I have never watched a bl show that takes me through so many emotions in different time intervals; it almost feels like I am on a rollercoaster made of emotions. I cannot wait till Saturday for episode seven, but at the same time, I dread what might happen (dread and excitement are the order of the day when waiting for a new episode).Additionally, the pacing is terrific; it is not rushed but just right. It increases your anticipation (the thirst is real) for more. It's like slow torture, but you are still getting rewarded for suffering. The comedy and switch between scenes are pure genii. The unexpected comedic scene lifts your mood when for example, an episode consisting of a continuous grave situation that has you at the edge of your seat, almost tearing your hair out or even screaming. You forget your pain for a bit, only for another scene to make you cry again (I told you it's torture, but it hurts so good).
Overall, Kinnporsche is a very fantastic show with outstanding acting, a rollercoaster of emotions, a family (as you come to love the cast members and their interactions), and action (it is very thrilling). I am very thankful to the cast and crew, be on cloud for allowing for the showcasing of this masterpiece and the rest of all the fans (including casual viewers, passersby, etc.) that watch the show and let it trend almost daily. I cannot tell you how happy I am that every one of the cast is receiving attention and the crew members who worked so hard for us behind the scenes see the fruit of their labour; they deserve so much more.
The Big Question:
So do I recommend you watch this show? The short answer is HELL YEAH!!!!

Disturbing and so far pointless.
The acting is the only thing worth watching in this series.Honestly, every part of the writing from the first episode to the 4th (which I admit is where I stop) has been absolute crap. The only character that feels like he deserves better than what he gets is Porsche's little brother. All the other characters are bad people to some degree. Even Porsche and Kinn, who we are meant to be the protagonists are not characters that I feel much sympathy for. Also, other than serving as a backdrop to our scary relationship nightmares, does this story have an actual plot? So far, no.
The love story portion of this is extremely problematic. I know this is meant to be mafia and therefore not child friendly, but if you wanted to make it mafia and guns blazing, why advertise it as a BL which is supposed to be romantic? There is nothing romantic or even worthwhile about this story. And since other than the violence and sex, I see no actual plot, I can't imagine that this story is intended to be anything other than a romance. So far, all they've done is set up the relationship between Kinn and Porsche, which, again, is problematic at best.
Kinn is a horrible person. Other than the most basic of character arc, where he meets someone who becomes important to him and falls in love (which is questionable, I want to say possessive lust instead), he has no real value as a character. He is supposed to be the protagonist, but if he's the protagonist, the antagonist is Satan himself. As far as I can see, this character has no redeeming qualities and SPOILER ALERT: he rapes his bodyguard. Kinn takes advantage of Porsche twice when he is in a terribly vulnerable state. One time, amounting to rape as Porsche had been drugged and could not in any way be considered consenting. After that, we are still expected to support this couple and hope they get together? Not on the likely.
The story is also amazingly unbelievable. Apparently Kinn's an amazing fighter, but only when the story calls for him to beat up his bodyguard -- the same bodyguard who bested 4 people in order to protect Kinn when he was running away and unable to defend himself. It's amazing that Kinn was able to improve his skills so much so quickly, isn't it? I mean, how else do we account for Kinn being able to beat up Porsche when the story calls for it but need Porsche's help because he's not able to protect himself when the story calls for that?
Knowing what would be in store for the Vegas and Pete couple IF the series followed the actual book, is just another reason that I can't support this series. The only reason this was written was as a backdrop for porn rape fantasies by writers who probably have no idea what it is like to actually be raped because if they did they wouldn't write this garbage. The series itself isn't much better than the original stories, but at least we don't have to be subjected to Vegas and Pete as they were originally written.
For people who want to watch something with a little vague kind of story based on a mafia family full of violence and action -- you have come to the right place. If you want that and a love story, don't hold your breath. The only love happening in this story so far is the love Porsche has for his brother and the deep and abiding love that Kinn has for himself. I am sure some people are going to come back and tell me that they are mafia, after all, so I can't expect it to be all rainbows and butterflies. And you are right, it is a story about the mafia, but let's don't pretend that it's about love. It's about violence and sex with very little other story beyond that. The overall story itself, other than the abusive relationship going on between Kinn and Porsche, is vague to say the least. Is there a plot and a point outside of the violence and sex and abuse? So far, I'm going to say no. (I realize I've said some of these things twice, call it forgetful, redundant, or placing emphasis -- whatever makes you happy.)
As I said earlier, the only worthwhile part is the talented actors, who have clearly done as much as they could with the poor plot. There is absolutely no redeeming value to this story line, at least up until episode 4. Having learned from the novel what might be coming up, (AGAIN WITH SPOILERS) with Kinn and Porsche somehow ending up happy together and Pete thinking he's in love with the man who tortured and raped him -- I find it disappointing that this series was given the green light in the first place. What does it say about our culture that stories where the worst people do the worst things to each other and end up in love in a hazy pink land of "no, my boyfriend didn't rape me" and also have no real value in the plot department are the stories that are turned into a TV series and promoted to the world?
To be honest, I could be watching porn with no story line at all and feel less shame about my viewing activities. I was conflicted about this story at first, wanting to give it a chance because there aren't very many options in BL, but now I realize that was short sighted. If I want BL to have better options in the future, I have to refuse to support trash BL when it is offered. The only guilt I feel now is that I actually bothered to watch 4 episodes.

Worth the watch !
Amazing work ! Worth it !Story itself is done perfectly. You don't often meet plots that take you on such a roller coaster ride as this one does. Usually with whatever story , sooner or later you get the idea where the ending is going to get you. KinnPorche story however fools you until the very end. Whole time you watch this it's going to be ,, he's the bad guy.. no ! as it turns out.. the other one is the bad guy and the plot twists again and again and again until you actually get frustrated because it's suppose to end soon but you feel like, this confusion of yours is nowhere near to clearing up and that's the beauty of this show. Story wise .. it has everything.. HOTness overload from the start.. suspense .. guns blazing .. mysteries to solve, chemistry , insane humor, happy endings and not so happy endings. Full package. The only reason this show didn't get full on 10 out of me is because i myself felt like some parts of the show.. would have needed some more depth to it. Certain moments as they happen suddenly and out of the blue.. specially towards the ending , leave you to think ,, wait.. i'd like too see into it some more.. or like.. i would've liked to ease into it. I'd say that last two episodes feel like race to finish in many ways but never the less it doesn't disappoint. All that being said .. I do not however advise to take this show on as a first timer in a BL series world ! . Trust me.. this one tastes tons of times better if you've watched some softer BLs before that one . Why ? Because having everything all at once , is simply not healthy. Trust me, you'll thank me for that later ! ;)

A good production mafia bl
This is one of the heavier Thai bl. It’s not a romcom mafia but a rather more of a dark romance with comedy in it . Don’t expect a non toxic relationship in this show and I wouldn’t recommend to new bl fans unless they like the darker romance and are okay with SA / abuse.But starting off , the acting and cinematography are perfection. I felt the characters were real and not people just reading off their line . Apo is an amazing actor and best fitted to be the main character and Porsche is a likeable character. While I’m not a big fan of the second couple , Bible and Build had me on a rollarcoaster of emotion because of how convincing they are with their characters. I felt their pain when they’re hurt and cried for them. Tong did amazing with his character which is the best. The other cast Member were also great. The NC scene is one of the best in this industry from how it was shot to the chemistry of the couples
The negative is that the story went down hill basically after the best episode (Ep 6) when the main couple together. The characters logic went out the window from both main characters and how the second couple came to be is illogical. The show ended with some plothole that hasn’t been answer and no third couple which leads me to believe they were planning on doing a second season but outside drama/scandal happen.
It was a good series to watch and I enjoy the ride but with how heavy it is, I wouldn’t say this is a rewatchable show for me. I would watch it again with friends but not a comfort type of show .

SCREAMING
‼️ WARNING: THIS MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS BUT NOT IN A OBVIOUS WAY ‼️Story: first of all, i would like to say that i didn’t read the novel so all i know from the storyline is what the drama told me, which was not much if i have to be honest. The story behind everything seems pretty big and i think in the drama there was a lot of things that were left behind so for me that is something that confused me a lot but overall 8.5/10;
Acting/Cast: 10/10 for real. Everyone did a great job, i loved all the actors and they lived they characters until they very end and that was amazing.
Music/OST: 10/10. I CANT STOP PLAYING THE INTRO IN MY HEAD. It’s literally amazing both the english and the thai version.
Rewatch value: wouldn’t watch again simply because normally i don’t like rewatching dramas that i had already seen.
More general information that i think is worth mentioning: When I first saw scenes from this drama i thought he was going to be really hard to watch simply because it’s obviously a crime/gangster type of drama, so before watching i really thought that i should been prepared for it to be really strong and have really heavy scenes, not gonna lie, they do have really heavy scenes but they also have a lots of funny moments and their fight scenes aren’t really that heavy (at least not for me). Although there were some triggering scenes, i didn’t find it as heavy and strong as i thought it would be. The last episode is kinda confuse and it doesn’t answer many questions on the contrary it leaves you with a lots of questions. I have mixed feelings with the way that it ends, it’s definitely something that i wasn’t expecting to happen that’s for sure. In the end i still didn't understood very well who was really lying and who was really telling the truth, which for me it's something that makes me frustrated. There are various things that were ignored, and although those things need to happen because the show can't have all details like the novel, i still think that there were a lots of things that weren't complete. In the end i really liked the drama, it has a lot of cute and funny moments, i love Kinn’s older brother, he is sincerely one of the best characters ever in the show and it’s already worthy to watch it because of him. Finally i give a 9.5/10 to this drama because it made me obsessed with it but the ending it’s what’s stopping me from giving it a 10/10.

The Quintessential Mafia Romance, But Gay!
Indeed the quintessential mafia romance story. Kinn and Porsche, besides the fact they took fuck-it-out instead of talk-it-out seriously, were cute, funny, and just an overall joy and exciting to watch. The actors had insane chemistry, and every sex scene was surprisingly graphic! The plot as a whole is incredible; every character was played phenomenally! I was angry, I was happy, I was heartbroken, I was laughing! I couldn't trust anyone, but Porsche and Porchay! Oh, Porchay! Kim needs to get his feeling sorted and why was the fact Kim had a 'Manner of Death' style murder bored behind a picture never addressed? Why was he so curious, other than him being nosy? Also, he ran from Porchay a lot, like dude get it together.Vegas is an f-ing psycho, there is no way Pete doesn't have Stockholm syndrome. You can not convince me otherwise; I refuse to believe Pete could fall for a crazy person like that. (Quick reflection; I still think that Pete was interacting with Vegas to make it out alive /survive, but after a while started to actually fall for him. Cause Pete took a calculated risk going into the minor family house to spy but certainly hadn't been interested in Vegas romantically until they began being emotionally vulnerable towards one another.)
Tankhun and Yok were highlights of comedy. Erica! Oh, that's a woman if I've ever seen one! I love her, and she deserved to live! The ending too! Porsche got the big gun he wanted!
The fact he's only on Kinn's side, even after he took over the minor family, struck my heart. I am sad about the scene with Porchay, Porsche and their mom cause I feel like she has no idea who they are and just seems confused. Also, was not a fan of the sexual assault from Kinn. Porsche was under the effects of a date rape drug and Kinn took advantage of Porsche. I'm glad it was talked about but that doesn't make it any more ok.
