God.... I just.... Did I actually watch this or did I somehow slip into Michael Bay's mind and witness a dream of his?

The action was just so incredibly generic, the constant car flips and explosions, the parkour chase scenes, the shooting of gormless rent a thugs, the inevitable survival of our team of 'heroes'. The car chase at the start through Florence somehow felt Transformers like, in the way that the cars went flying through the air. In addition to the generic car chase sequences, the gun fights felt like something I'd scene a million times before, as did the (limited) hand to hand combat scenes. None of the action really hit the spot for me on this one, and I found myself experience a constant level of boredom throughout.

The plot was all a bit bizarre, and to be honest I'm not entirely sure what was going on with the non-linear story telling in the first act. It was all far too confusing and wholly unnecessary, adding nothing to the picture. I think Bay was attempting to add a semblance of high brow to this generic and run of the mill film. I'm not really sure why any of the characters decided to fake their deaths and turn to a life of magnanimous mercenary work, but I'm not entirely sure I cared.

Speaking of the characters, I really was not emotionally connected to any of them. They were about as two dimensional as film characters come, and I found myself not caring at all about their fates.

6 Underground also displayed some of Michael Bay's 'humour'... which much like the action just didn't hit the mark for me. Even Ryan Reynolds couldn't save the godawful script, and I'm really none the wiser at to why he signed on for this. Surely Deadpool has lined his pockets enough that he doesn't have to bother with films like this?

A lacklustre and derivative attempt at an action thriller which falls flat on so many notes. It isn't even funny how bad it is... it's just bad.
