action

An unnamed American self-made billionaire and philanthropist stages his death after witnessing the brutality of the regime of Rovach Alimov, the dictator of the fictional country of Turgistan. Under the code name "Eins", he recruited a six-member freelance group of specialists who were believed dead, whom he called ghosts and whom he also gave numerical code names.

On their first mission to Florence , the team kills the dictator's lawyer before the pack and police chase them through the city. The driver "Six" dies on the run. Days later recruited one of the Delta Force - sniper Blaine and gives him the code name "Seven". Together they plan a coup to overthrow Rovach Alimov during the Day of the Dead and replace him with his democratic brother Murat. At that time, "Zwei" had captured Murat on behalf of the CIA and handed over to Rovach.

The team murder Rovach's generals in Las Vegas . "Two" and "three" start a relationship. They find out Murat's whereabouts from the generals. This is being held in a skyscraper in Hong Kong . During the rescue operation, "four" remains behind and is followed by Rovach's henchmen. Against the command of “one”, “seven” intervenes and saves “four”.

In Turgistan, the team hacked the state television network to interrupt Rovach's speech and give Murat a voice. Murat's spontaneous speech inspires citizens to riot, while strategic explosions in the city force Rovach to evacuate onto his yacht . Murat occupies the palace and brings the military on his side. The team attacks the yacht and activates a magnetic pulse to disable the guards. When the yacht sinks, Rovach flees in a boat. Since "Four" is in trouble, "One" orders him to be saved instead of pursuing Rovach. Rovach's boat reaches a helicopter . When he gets in, he discovers that Murat and the team are already on board. They throw Rovach out of a refugee camp and the rebels kill him.

"Drei" introduces "Zwei" to his mother. "Four" and "five" also begin a love affair. "One" travels to New York and watches his son in the park. He sets up an account that the boy can have if "One" dies on the next mission.

production

Rhett Reese at Comic-Con in San Diego in July 2018

As announced in May 2018, Michael Bay directed. Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick worked on the script, and both Deadpool and Deadpool 2 came from their pens . The score was composed by Lorne Balfe . The soundtrack, which comprises a total of 19 pieces of music, was released for download by Milan Records on December 13, 2019.

Originally 6 Underground was supposed to be released in the cinema. However, Netflix was able to agree with the production company Skydance to produce the film exclusively for a Netflix release. Netflix plans to put between $ 125 million and $ 150 million into the production of Six Underground , which surpasses the Netflix film Bright with Will Smith , which cost around $ 90 million, but the final production cost of The Irishman , into Netflix invested around 159 million US dollars.

For both Reynolds and director Bay, the film marks the first collaboration with Netflix.

Filming began in the summer of 2018, took place in Rome and Los Angeles , and ended in December 2018.

A first trailer was presented in early October 2019. The premiere took place on December 10, 2019 in New York. The film was added to the Netflix streaming service on December 13, 2019.

reception

Lukas Foerster from the Filmbulletin writes that at really every opportunity, Ryan Reynolds, in the role of leader, gives way to his contempt for anything that looks even remotely like government action and civil society structures, when he says that only individuals have value , also in the functionally differentiated loner team. It is a matter of taking oneself out of the continuity of history, of the nation- states, of social ties, Foerster continues, which also has an impact on the cinematic dramaturgy, since after the first epic chase scene, the film takes place in more or less dematerialized spaces.

By January 20, 2020, around 83 million subscribers had seen 6 Underground on Netflix.

synchronization

The German synchronization was based on a dialogue book by Kaze Uzumaki and the dialogue direction by Ina Kampf on behalf of Berliner Synchron .
