Great action movie with an ensemble cast. Reynolds said its the Bay-est Michael Bay film ever, and I'm apt to agree.

Watching it now.

Fun fact: the number 6 was chosen for the title because 6 seconds is the longest single scene in the movie before jump cutting away.

I was disappointed by the distinct lack of Sneaker Pimps on the soundtrack. Wasted opportunity.

It will probably be an unpopular opinion, but this movie was fun as hell. The first 15 minuets were just insane. It's stupid as hell, but the action set pieces were awesome.

It was the most Michael Bay ever movie with an R rating.
Bodies bounced all over the place.

There was some horribly bad dialogue. But it was sort of self aware of the cheese.

For a nice 2+ hour of escape action, it was fun.

I got a little lost in the very end, but when spoilers get posted I'll ask my question

This was not your fault.

Bay definitely has not cooled off on the frenetic, incoherent editing.

All them jump cuts don't go well with a half arse plot and non linear storytelling.


But it is fun!

It was the exact movie I expected last night. Hugely dumb action movie with some great set pieces and cool shots. The movie line quotes gag was good for some humor. Totally incoherent plot as expected

Man. Half that shite made no sense, and the dialogue was bad. But damn if it wasn't pure dumbass enjoyable Michael Bay fun.

That opening car chase was badass.

Agreed, anyone who goes into this movie expecting Remains of the Day or Amadeus is a moron who takes shite too seriously.

This movie would never be confused for high cinema, but damn if it isn't a fun ride.

Makes me wish they'd team up with Mark Wahlberg's team from Mile 22 for another mission.

The scenes when they introduced everyone was very Borderlandsy.

Reading this qued my OCD and caused me to watch the entire movie mentally counting seconds and was only satisfied when I found a cut that indeed ran longer than 6 seconds.
