6 Days Reviews

If not entirely compelling, 6 Days gives us a little to chew on from several different perspectives of these well-known events.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 7, 2019

It's a shame that the story is rather bogged down by a sagging script and only basic character sketches.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 21, 2019

6 Days felt unfortunately like 6 months.

| Original Score: 5.5/10 | Oct 11, 2018

6 Days takes on a storied event and presents it as a riveting tale delivered with precision and focus.

| Original Score: 7.5/10 | Oct 10, 2018

Don't expect 90 minutes of action. Instead, writer Glenn Standring and director Toa Fraser take a different approach, providing us with a taut, detailed thriller that re-creates a significant chapter in the history of international terrorism.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 22, 2017

More boring than any report from the BBC. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 27, 2017

Boring and flat. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Nov 27, 2017

[Toa Fraser's] gaze goes directly to the facts without dramatizing, much less melodramatizing. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 27, 2017

... accurate and unambitious recreation of the hostage crisis in the embassy of Iran in London in 1980. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 20, 2017

Reenactment of 1980 embassy takeover has blood, violence.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 14, 2017

Bell is terrific - a combination of cocky swagger and perfect focus ...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 3, 2017

There is a payoff here, even if the film does come across like an oddly nostalgic ode to the hard-line stance of Britain's 'Iron Lady', Margaret Thatcher.

| Oct 10, 2017

For the most part, the results are pleasing and unexpectedly thoughtful.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 9, 2017

Right off the bat the viewer is placed in the exact same situation the police and hostages were at the time, setting the precedence for an immersive, if somewhat generic action thriller.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 3, 2017

Effortless and straightforward, resulting in a pleasing and most importantly, satisfying viewing experience.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 20, 2017

... manages some tense moments and mild intrigue, yet it never allows much room for character development along the way.

| Sep 16, 2017

A solidly made reminder that the spectre of terrorism has been with us for some time.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 6, 2017

Yet, despite ostensibly doing everything "right", for most of its run-time the film doesn't quite manage to deliver the thrills.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 31, 2017

6 Days is a mostly well-made film based on true events, but its similarity to our current political climate makes it an uncomfortable watch.

| Aug 29, 2017

The most interesting element of 6 Days is the historical near-week it's based on.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Aug 25, 2017
