And yeah I didnt know that it is Michael Bay's movie, but when seeing it at the end in credits I am not surprised. Basically action is good, but the plot itself a bit stupid and over the top.… Expand

It's a Michael Bay movie, so what are you exactly expecting? It's definitely waaaay better than any Transformers movie, but it is still abundant with all the dumb elements you expect from a Michael Bay movie.

The Plot: 6 people form a vigilante group to take out bad guys because they don't believe that the legal process will bring justice. They follow a billionaire who wants to bring down a dictator by replacing him with his liberal brother. What are the odds...

They do this by screaming out of place lines during action scenes, making jokes all the time, and shooting people that result in slow-motion shots of bullets piercing faces. The action is over the top, but nonetheless amusing.

It's dumb, there's no way around it. The characters are cliche's, the violence is so gruesome that is doesn't look realistic anymore, and there are lots of explosions. And in end, it was actually just okay. I give it a 6/10.… Expand

The two universal truths to this movie: 1) The opening sequence is vintage Bay at his best, and 2) The storyline is it's weak point.

The latter would not be a problem, and indeed it doesn't render the Bay-esque 10-angle-action-shots/second opening sequences futile. However, the first Act writes cheques about the expectations of the rest of the movie that the remainder of the movie sadly can't cash. It almost does the job of being the genesis of Bay's answer to the Fast & Furious / Mission:Impossible franchise, albeit the wonderfully ridiculous over-the-top version, under the cover of Reynolds' idiosyncratic humour. Alas, the aforementioned weak plot is not only found wanting, but also wasting the opportunity of what could've been the start of something everlasting, if even a fun and exciting stand alone movie in its own right....this review would be longer but I'm still having to concentrate on the never-ending action scenes that are still somehow not over despite finishing the movie hours ago.… Expand

The action is intense the explosions big and the cars are fast. Ryan Reynolds is just playing Deadpool again which seems to be all he can play now. He even does the narrating same as Deadpool. They are trying to replace a Fascist dictator in the Middle East with his brother that is the main plot of this movie.… Expand

In fact their characters are the best part of the movie. What I didn't like - at all - is the confusing, disorienting and straight up poor cutting of the scenes throughout the movie.

The movie also strikes a very odd and inconsistent tone throughout, at times it wants to be smartass and even lighthearted, at times it wants to be Mission Impossible.
The bodycount and graphic vicious violence throughout doesn't lend itself to Ryan Reynolds lighthearted smart-ass-ness. A bit of a (gorgeously stylish) mess. Can't recommend it.… Expand

"6 Undergound" is a typical Michael Bay film. It is entertaining and action-packed, yet full of terrible dialogue, paper-thin characters, and choppy editing.

Filme de pura acção por vezes desmedida e sem muito nexo de história. Gostei de algumas cenas e pelo menos o filme entretem.

It's Michael Bay, Ryan Reynolds, action, a big budget and Netflix. That's all you need to know about this film.
The rest is on you.

Michael Bay is great with short forms - like those he originated from - music videoclips. He lacks the ability to tell stories, just shoves CGI and other visuals into your face.

The story is ... well it's almost not there. It's just a bunch of scenes with the same people in them together. Think 5 seconds about a spy/assasin movie, then substract Mission Impossible quality from it and you'll have "6 Underground".

Reynolds' charm keeps this group of scenes together in some way, but the rest... you feel no connection to any of them or the story. Lost 2 hrs of saturday evening. Don't recommend.… Expand

If you are female or an iNtuitive Feeler male, the more genteel charms of Tom Cruise's Mission Impossible retreaded with Michael Bay tires is likely to leave you cold after it's over. The primary value and primary point of view this exercise and all its gorgeous production values supports is: violence is good, violence is fun. To anyone with a iNtuitive Feeler conscience, this is going to feel like Armageddon turned up to "11"… Expand

All of the character backstories are nicely built up but not overdone. Then we get to the main mission and it involves the dictator of a fake country, which I just found totally lame and cartoon-like. Also, they drag out this final act for far too long. Any political commentary about the evil holding people down is completely toothless because it doesn't have the guts to go after anything real, despite having style that is so over-the-top.… Expand

What is the lesser evil, an action without script or with a worn script? Immeasurably better "6 Underground" by the Sneakers Pimps (1996).

The action is solid with lots of real stunts and tangible explosions, CGI is thankfully at a minimum. I think the obvious budget restrictions have forced Bay away from CGI heavy action scenes which does help keep the action grounded and believable. The car chases are the best part of the movie because they're done with all real cars crashing and exploding. Secondly, the gun fights are well choreographed with loud shots and impact damage. Unfortunately, the overuse of dutch angles and "shaky" cam spoil the action, you get a nice few shots of some cool action sometimes in excellent slow mo and then you get distracted by the ridiculous camera work. It gets annoying by the end and the amount of lens flare and bloom usage is worse than in a JJ Abrams flick. The cinematography is amateur and dated. The editing and stupid amount of jump cuts is horrendous, every scene even the calmer scenes are visual jumbled messes. I think he wants the film to look flash and exciting but instead it's off putting and tacky looking. Bay needs to stop ruining the look of his films like this. The story is bad and dumb, it's a cheesy 80's cheap action movie storyline, a dictator mindlessly killing people, just embarrassing like a bad Rambo part 2 parody. The flow and pacing of the movie is all over the place, you have flashbacks to the characters pasts scattered everywhere and you flip flop from one location to the next way to much. The pace is slow fast slow fast........ it's dizzying! The movie shoe horns in a lazily done moral to the story which just falls flat and feels so out of place. Bay must think this film is higher thinking stuff when in fact it's just a below average action romp. The wit and humour of Ryan Reynolds slightly improve the watch but the rest of the cast are disposable with pathetic corny dialogue and eye rolling bad jokes. There are 3 big incredible set pieces during the just over 2 hour runtime which are really fun except for the irritating camera idiocy. The locales the film goes to are spectacular and the big explosions are well done, the pyrotechnics team did a great job. Without Ryan Reynolds or Netflix budgeting and streaming the film, it definitely would have gone straight past the cinema and onto dvd. If you didn't mind watching the last Transformers you might like this from Bay though it's a million miles away from his Armageddon or The Rock. Michael Bay has become a shadow of his former self and this film is evidence of the fact.… Expand

What was the story? I'm so bored after complete the movie. But Rayn Raynolds is the best actor in this film. 6 Underground is a little bit comedy and some action scenes are very interesting.
