6 Days

Good film, well acted and well paced. Gives background information to a story that many of us thought we were familiar with.

I really enjoyed it- edge of your seat stuff made all the better knowing it is real Great acting on the part of Max and all the SAS crew

Although it is not your typical action movie it is as real and dirty as can be. The raw story of what it truly takes to be the first and original counter-terrorist organization as it truly occured was beautifully done. The SAS and their actions during the Iranian Embassy Crisis saved lives. It isn't meant to be a shoot-em-up action thriller but it does an amazing job of being closer to a reenactment of real life events.

An enjoyable movie. Strong characters and an interesting insight into Britain under Margaret Thatcher. The style of the cinematography and the script takes you back to the early 80s and the way the governments had to develop their and adapt their responses to a range of international threats, such as hijackings, bombings and hostage situations.

That movie could have been so much more.

This is historically accurate and not to mention one of SAS operators is literally the real life Captain Price and also not to mention the SAS literally prepared for five days until they went in on the 6th day of the siege

This is probably the least amount of actions in a terrorist movie ever with so many things goes wrong even days of SAS counter terrorist rehearsal.

.ProductionnoitcudorPA missed chance to create something special about an exciting and memorable piece of history. Shockingly poor acting, awful

A very taut, intense historical drama about a beginning of the modern age of terrorism. The lens of the story is zoomed into nearly every aspect of this story - so there's not much reference to anything outside of this very tight scope or much extra character development. That being said Jamie Bell, Mark Strong, and Ben Turner are all excellent and give nuanced performances. Jamie Bell, especially, as the special forces officer, is like a compressed spring constantly on that verge. Abbie Cornish plays the amazing Kate Adie but is so stiff so as to hardly do her justice. This was before my time and I wasn't familiar with the incident so found it, perhaps, especially interesting. Particularly the decrees sent down by a newly minted Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. Her instructions seemed preoccupied with image over safety which is certainly concerning as this incident set a bar for how states deal with hostage situations.
