This one was worst than all previous 5 movies which were kinda fun, I don't think they'll make another one, hopefully.
The story is cheap, you can watch this while doing housechore and still understand the story, is just about rescue mission. And most of the scene take in one place. So i barely can call this movie that studios movie make, more like fanmade movie with low budget.
This is the latest presentation in the WWE produced Marine film series. I've seen a couple of them and I recall liking the original 2006 movie The Marine, with John Cena. However, this one was barely watchable, in my opinion.
Shawn Michaels and Mike "The Miz" Mizanin star here as two ex-Marines who are trying to help a Vietnam Vet squatting in a huge abandoned and dilapidated apartment complex, in Portland, Oregon. But they will stumble upon the hideout of some Irish mob kidnappers. They've taken the daughter of a jury member in a murder trial involving one of their leaders , as they try and force a mistrial in the case.
What will ensue will be one fight scene after another, either hand-to-hand combat or weaponry, as the two ex-Marines along with the kidnapped young woman try and fight their way out of the enormous building. I might mention here that Becky Lynch is believable as the sadistic head of the kidnappers. There's a twist towards the end of the film that probably few would have predicted.
Overall, there's just too much stilted dialogue and repetitive fight scenes for my liking here. The banter between Michaels and The Miz offers some comic relief at times, but it's not always effective. As mentioned earlier, it's watchable but barely, as I see it.

The no-spoilers-here plot twist three quarters into the sixth instalment of the WWE Films' Marine franchise definitely threw me for a loop, and I'm sure I wasn't the only one.
Overall, this was the weakest entry in the series since Mike 'The Miz' Mizanin assumed the titular role in The Marine 3. The action is highly unbelievable - which is truly saying something for this franchise, which almost wears it's check your credulity at the door action sequences like a badge of honour - and the acting is pretty horrible, too.
Shawn Michaels' character getting around the place at a run and even leaping through the air after being impaled on some rebar did it for me. I mean, I don't mind a movie that stretches the imagination, but this was too far; just dumb in places. Michaels can barely act.
A shame the franchise ended this way. After a disappointing second entry, Mizanin really rejuvenated what had begun as a John Cena vehicle. This, though, was a mis-step.

I have seen all of the previous Marine films and have enjoyed them, yes the acting needs work but the budget seemed to have been okay and this also goes for the action sequences.
Now I don't know what happened with this movie, maybe the WWE did t want to give anymore money to these movies as they were not the cash cows they thought they could and would be.
Here we get awful acting especially from Martyn Ford, stop giving this idiot movies to star in. He ruined and I mean ruined the Undisputed movie he was in, that one was the worst out of the whole series and here he is awful in every scene he is in.
Yeah if you think his acting is bad well th same goes for Michaels as well.
The whole movie stinks of cheapness and it shows from the awful acting and dialogue to the action scenes.
Give this one a wide berth and watch one of the previous ones.

- GoofsAfter rescuing Sarah from the baddies in the disused brewery building, Jake asks Sarah her name. But he heard Maddy address Sarah by name just a couple of minutes prior, so he would have already known her name. However, Jake is a trained EMT, and Sarah has visible head wounds; he is probably asking her the question to make sure she is lucid and is not suffering from a brain injury.
