It’s a shame this real crowd-pleaser won’t be playing to crowds, but it still works as a Friday night, pop-the-popcorn, living room entertainment. Read full review

Mick LaSalle

Not surprisingly for a movie of this type, there are lots of scenes of violence, including hand-to-hand combat. The fight choreography is exceptional. In the “John Wick” movies, the violence seems almost like a ballet. Here the fighting is just as intricate, but it also seems like actual fighting, and Hemsworth seems like an actual person who’s doing it. Read full review

The film, wisely, is built around Hemsworth. He’s good at this kind of thing, and no matter how many throats he slits, you still root for him. Read full review

Heady with cordite fumes and high on its violent spectacle, this Chris Hemsworth-fronted action-thriller makes for a surprise-free but passable lockdown watch. Read full review

Movie Nation Roger Moore

Extraction runs into the same problems any movie that’s on-the-run/fighting-your-way-out faces. It’s wearing, characters get shortchanged and the temptation to take absurd shortcuts in logic just to get us from point A to B is irresistible. Read full review

Extraction might outdo Children of Men in some minor technical ways, but it can’t hold a candle to it as a whole. The movie comes alive around the 34-minute mark; it’s a bit of a slog until that point — one I confess I might have turned off long before its bravura centerpiece if not for professional commitments.

No judgments here if you just want to hang back and let nonstop gore, gunfire, and explosions numb you into submission. Take that, COVID-19. Read full review

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ¡Buenísima peli! Buen argumento, intensas y geniales secuencias de acción, brillante y convincente actuación de Chris Hemsworth junto a un desenlace bastante satisfactorio aunque a mi juicio quedaron cosas al aire que de seguro las juntan en una secuela, en fin, para ser una producción de Netflix tiene mucha calidad y está muy por encima de las películas convencionales de este género.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This was excellent! Some of the best action sequences I have seen in years, genuinely excited me as a viewer which is extremely rare these days. The protagonist actually restocks ammo from victims or uses their weapons which is not commonly seen, I found it to be excellent, I highly recommend it for action fans especially...… Expand

First, It borrows heavily from Man On Fire, even down to the colour filters.

Story is also very similar, A broken man with nothing to lose takes a rescue mission to save a drug-barons son, kidnapped by his rivals. A seemingly easy mission goes wrong, and the two has to fight their way out of a locked down city. Seems original? well It is not. However it is largely carried by Hemsworth and Randeep Hooda who does a great role. But there is little character development going on.
on a large scale it is backed up by very close quarter tactical combat action. Other than this, there is not much to say about Extraction. It is a good filler for Sunday.… Expand

The talented cast do a great job with the action heavy screenplay. In a lot of ways this was an unsurprising movie with some great gun-fu ala John wick stylee. It was fun to watch, I just wish more time had been spent on the cliche plot and characters. Just read a sequel is on the way soThe talented cast do a great job with the action heavy screenplay.

Just read a sequel is on the way so hopefully they can take the time to put some more interesting flesh on the barely thought out bones of Hemsworths weakly written Rake.

It has represented Bangladesh incorrectly.The accent was not right. We expected more. It should have used some Bangladeshi actors. Atleast for dubbing.
