All the other reviews are correct. This film is shallow, weird, disjointed, entertaining, funny, odd, violent, ridiculous, cool, cringy. I liked it though. Switch your brain off first and just go along for the ride.
If you are looking for deep conversationes and great plots this is not your kind of movie. If you just want to lay back and enjoy great action scenes mixed with classic Ryan Reynolds comedy inputs, you will love it. Perfect for just laying back and enjoying Action a la Michael Bay!
These reviewers who watch a Michael Bay movie and review it as if they were expecting Shakespeare need to stop reviewing. Seriously. The only reason to watch his flicks are so you can leave your brain at the door, turn off the lights, turn up the surround sound to 100 and sit back and watch $hit blow up. You want a thinking person's movie? Go see something else. You want your brain mushed then watch this! Was awesome, funny, action filled, fast cars, explosions, I was blowing bubbles out of my ears. Such fun.
So you have had a long tough week at work.
It's Friday, and you want to escape your work life.
You open a bottle of wine, pour a glass and put a movie on.
You have escaped the dire reality of 9-5.
This film is a perfect release, it has action, it has Ryan Reynolds based humour. It will never be an Oscar nominee for best picture, but hey, it's Friday night, you have a glass of wine in your hand and you want to release the week.
At times it felt like a film
By numbers but nowadays it is extremely rare not too.
So please, enjoy the film for what it is. It's action. It's fun. It's Friday night so enjoy.
At a budget of $150 million, this is the third most expensive film ever produced by Netflix, following Martin Scorsese's The Irishman (2019) which was budgeted at $175 million and The Electric State at $320 million.
During the opening car chase, there are several scenes where the green Alfa Romeo will have damage on the sides - but in between shots, there is no damage. The same goes with Six's hat: on or off.
