Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times Thai director Pen-ek Ratanaruang's splatter comedy 6ixtynin9 rejoices in a plot as tricky as its spelling. Rated: 3/5 May 19, 2005 Full Review Dennis Lim Village Voice Enlivens some dingy genre predicaments (dirty money, corpse disposal) with gusts of dreamlike whimsy and a sardonic take on local economic woes. May 17, 2005 Full Review G. Allen Johnson San Francisco Chronicle It is a lot of fun and allows us to track the growth of a special artist. Rated: 3/4 Mar 25, 2005 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Its humor is wicked. Rated: B- May 5, 2006 Full Review Jeffrey Chen Window to the Movies Stylish, funny, and fun to watch (and quite morbid at times), and even offers relevant insight into the conditions created by the Thai economy. Rated: 8/10 Apr 20, 2006 Full Review Jean-François Vandeuren Panorama 6ixtynin9 prend les traits d'une %u0153uvre peinte avec le plus grand soin, mais dont les nombreuses couches de peinture n'arrivent pas cacher compltement tous les numros. Rated: 7/10 Mar 16, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Mama or Wai Wai or Sugas ? Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member "A Funny Story About 6 and 9" alternative title "Draining Day" starts off with a woman getting fired from her job. After dreaming about suicide, she finds a lot of money and a very eventful day begins. Visionary director of "Last Life in the Universe" and "Headshot" helms a humorous tragedy that starts because a missing screw turns apartment 6 into apartment 9. Confusing ending. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a great movie and one hell uv a twist. Order it and see the hidden cost of taking something that does not belong to you. Thai film with subtitles. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Grotesque dark comedy. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member A Tarantino-esque film, I love it Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member A wry crime comedy that works because of its humor.
