What to Know

Critics Consensus

6 Underground is loud, frenetic, and finally preposterous -- which is either bad news or a hearty recommendation, depending how one feels about the movies of Michael Bay.

Robert Levin Newsday This is a terrible action movie that utilizes Michael Bay's worst instincts and none of his best. Rated: 1/4 Jan 3, 2020 Full Review Roxana Hadadi Pajiba Military idolatry and craven female objectification and a belief that the rich will save us? 6 Underground has it all! Dec 27, 2019 Full Review Clarisse Loughrey Independent (UK) It's a film that lets its audience gorge on violence and bravado, only to make us feel sick of the taste by the final reel. Rated: 2/5 Dec 21, 2019 Full Review Elizabeth Garcia But Why Tho? A Geek Community At the end of the day, it is doing too much. The political commentary feels incredibly shallow and the plot is so barely there making it hard to follow and the heist confusing...I really, really wanted to like 6 Underground but I just can’t. Rated: 4/10 Jan 21, 2023 Full Review Josh Parham Next Best Picture The structure is poorly assembled and every character is given very little emotional depth. Rated: 2/10 Jun 4, 2022 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review There's a method to Bay's madness, and you'll find it crammed somewhere in-between his cuts by the millisecond and swooping low-angle camera movements.

Sandra G. Great action scenes, great cast and great music! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/04/25 Full Review Marco L (CASTELLANO) Michael Bay nunca engaña a nadie: si te sientas a ver una de sus películas, sabes lo que vas a encontrar. Explosiones, persecuciones imposibles, humor descarado y un montaje que no da tregua. Aquí lo lleva al extremo desde la primera secuencia, una persecución en Florencia que parece alargarse hasta el infinito y que ya marca el tono de lo que viene después. La trama es poco más que una excusa para unir a seis personajes que actúan fuera del sistema, pero lo cierto es que la historia importa menos que el espectáculo. Bay se recrea en la violencia estilizada, en los planos imposibles y en esa estética de videoclip que tanto le gusta. El resultado puede cansar a ratos, pero también consigue que el ritmo no decaiga en ningún momento. Ryan Reynolds es el ancla cómica de la función. Interpreta prácticamente una variación de sí mismo, con sus bromas rápidas y su actitud de antihéroe sarcástico. Puede que no todos sus chistes funcionen, pero encaja bien en este universo pasado de vueltas. El resto del equipo cumple sin destacar demasiado, aunque la dinámica de grupo le da algo de aire fresco a la trama. No es una película para buscar coherencia ni profundidad. Su valor está en la energía desbordante y en lo excesivo de su propuesta. Es el Bay más desatado, para bien y para mal. Si entras en el juego, es fácil divertirse con sus ocurrencias visuales y con la escala de la acción, que solo podría costear una superproducción de Netflix. En definitiva, una montaña rusa que entretiene mientras dura, aunque difícilmente deje huella una vez terminan los créditos. Quien busque puro escapismo lo encontrará; quien espere otra cosa, mejor que no se acerque. (ENGLISH) Michael Bay never deceives anyone: if you sit down to watch one of his films, you know exactly what to expect. Explosions, impossible chases, cheeky humor, and editing that never takes a breath. Here he pushes it to the limit right from the first sequence, a chase in Florence that feels endless and sets the tone for everything that follows. The plot is little more than an excuse to bring together six characters who operate outside the system, but the truth is the story matters less than the spectacle. Bay indulges in stylized violence, impossible shots, and that music-video aesthetic he loves so much. The result can get tiring at times, but it also ensures the pace never slows down. Ryan Reynolds is the film’s comedic anchor. He basically plays a variation of himself, with quick jokes and the attitude of a sarcastic antihero. Not all of his gags land, but he fits well into this over-the-top universe. The rest of the team does their job without standing out too much, though the group dynamic adds some fresh air to the story. This isn’t a film to look for coherence or depth. Its value lies in the overflowing energy and the excess of its proposal. It’s Bay at his most unrestrained, for better and worse. If you play along, it’s easy to have fun with his visual flourishes and with the scale of the action that only a Netflix blockbuster could afford. In the end, it’s a roller coaster that entertains while it lasts, though it’s unlikely to leave much of a mark once the credits roll. Those looking for pure escapism will find it; anyone expecting something else should probably stay away. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/10/25 Full Review Philip G I found this movie to be highly entertaining. Critics use words like "frenetic" and "preposterous." 6 Underground was that and many more such adjectives. But it was fun to watch. I think if some people would just give their pucker pressure released a bit, they might find this and other movies not perfect, but entertaining. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/22/25 Full Review Tim J Some very talented actors who didn't get a chance to shine. The humour starts to get a bit repetitive in the middle but is certainly an action movie. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/10/25 Full Review thiago s Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, a história é fraca, o elenco é mais ou menos, mas ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/05/25 Full Review Barry L Thoroughly enjoyed this movie hope they make the sequel, 5 Star excellent movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/03/25 Full Review Read all reviews
