Live Your Life with Color
Drama Stage Season 4: Mint Condition is a 1-episode drama about an angry old man who turns into a young man after a breakdown in an MRI machine. Later, he meets an indie hip-hop group consisting of three people and learns from them what life should really be about.
The drama has a unique premise and a clear message to deliver. However, the script doesn’t do it justice. Instead of properly building up the story within the limited one-episode format, it spends so much time on the comedic scenes here and there.
That said, the acting and chemistry are great, and the comedy is genuinely fun, making it still enjoyable to watch. The conclusion also feels right and fitting. As other reviewers have said, this story would have worked much better as a mini-series, it would have had enough time to develop the plot properly while still keeping all the comedic moments intact.
