What We Think

6 Underground is a Michael Bay flick through and through, loud, frenetic, and proudly apolitical. It values explosions over lectures and rarely pauses for virtue signals. If you’re tired of woke Hollywood, you’ll find this one refreshingly nonchalant.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

6 Underground mostly features action, explosions, and irreverent humor, putting entertainment over ideology. Its diverse cast doesn't feel forced and characters are defined more by backstory and skills than identity. Any wokeness is so shallow it doesn't distract from the main plot, for better or worse.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional masculinity is alive and well, with plenty of bravado and gun-slinging. There’s no overt attack on family, religion, or traditional values. In fact, character motivations revolve around justice and personal codes rather than ideology.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film keeps politics light and portrays villains more as cartoonish evil than stand-ins for any real-world groups. There’s not much moralizing or forced monologue about contemporary issues, keeping the ideological temperature refreshingly low.
