EARLY ACCESS: Extraction FULL REACTION
Added 2023-06-30 16:39:48 +0000 UTCLed by the charismatic Chris Hemsworth in the role of Tyler Rake, the film delivers a visual spectacle packed with intense fight sequences, breathtaking stunts, and an emotional core that elevates it beyond a typical action flick. The movie centers around Tyler Rake, a black-market mercenary with a tragic past, who is hired to rescue Ovi Mahajan (played by Rudhraksh Jaiswal), the young son of an imprisoned Indian drug lord. Set in the city of Dhaka, Bangladesh, Extraction takes us on a treacherous journey through a grim underworld filled with ruthless criminals, corrupt officials, and a powerful drug cartel.
One of the film's greatest strengths lies in its action sequences, which are expertly choreographed and visually captivating. The highlight is undoubtedly a jaw-dropping 12-minute long-take action sequence, awesomely executed which made it one of the best things about the film. The chemistry between Hemsworth and Rudhraksh Jaiswal's Ovi is surprisingly moving, as they form an unlikely bond amidst the chaos, giving the film an emotional core that resonates with the audience.
Extraction benefits from its gritty and atmospheric cinematography, capturing the dark and dangerous underbelly of Dhaka with stunning visuals. The city itself becomes a character, enhancing the tension and adding a sense of authenticity to the narrative. The pulsating score by Henry Jackman complements the action sequences. The plot, although engaging, is fairly straightforward and lacks some of the intricacies that could have added more layers to the narrative. That's a nit pick on our end. We still would highly recommend this film. Can't wait to see Extraction 2.

2023-07-06 23:45:03 +0000 UTCI love these war movies and this movie surprisingly impressed me! If you guys haven't watched "13 Hours", "American Sniper" and "Lone Survivor". You should definitely watch those movies!!

2023-07-03 03:36:48 +0000 UTCI think the action and the killings are not the problems with this movie. I've only seen it once when it came out because I didn't think it was rewatchable. The plot in the John Wick movies is thin, but the cinematography, the score, the choreography and the world building are so much better and more interesting that I would put every John Wick movie over the two Extraction movies. Keanu Reeves' charisma and presence is a bonus. Although I like Chris Hemsworth and think that he did an incredible job in this movie, it just didn't click with me. Maybe the one-shot-scenes are a bit too long, so the tension fades away. I enjoyed the movie but I never felt the urge to watch it again. I only did it because it's always great to watch a movie with your reaction. I feel the same way with Extraction 2. Saw it once but I don't feel like watching it again except with your reaction. The John Wick movies on the other hand I watched a countless times and I still can watch them again and again.

2023-07-01 14:34:06 +0000 UTCI can't believe I never watched this one, I never even looked at the reviews! My sisters fiancé told me to watch it but some of the stuff he's told me to watch before have been questionable in quality. Especially off Netflix... Although I'm glad you guys gave me a reason to watch. It completely blew my expectations out of the water. It might sound cringe but man this story had such an old school Call of Duty story type feel, with the music on top of that man... this story was top notch!!!

2023-06-30 23:48:14 +0000 UTCprobably wont watch the reaction but I do like this movie and would put this above a movie like john wick but the death fake out reveal at the end left me annoyed. Won't even watch john wick 4 or any future one until I know he dies. it's getting tiresome and uninteresting to see unkillable Rambos who fall off buildings or get hit by multiple cars or get shot in the neck or whatever crazy thing Dom Toretto does.

2023-06-30 18:17:18 +0000 UTCYou guys definitely need to check out the behind the scenes for that one shot sequence. The director was actually the camera man and the way he got some of those shots was insane
