Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
renegade-ego I feel this film is well worth the time to watch, while it might lack some of the finesse of the big budget films, it has a good story line with good acting & good stunts apparently done without stunt doubles?The lead actors all did well. The fights were pretty good. The high profile fights were well done and realistic. The film was perhaps weakest in the quality of the lower actors and the extras, who basically lacked polish. All that said, I believe this to be a worthwhile film to watch, not really child friendly, due to some of the level of details in the fights, drug reference and language.
Jesse Boland So if you consider yourself a "Rudy" is it the song, or the ever persistent, and always ready to play little football fella? I only ask that because Sean Austin is one of the many actors wasted in this movie, and this seems as good a place as any to fill your time with useless crap, since the makers of this movie seem to think that it is OK to do just that. I tried a lot to like this movie, and I gave it every chance to win me over. I got a few laughs out of it, and there is a semi (barely) decent Frenemy three legged (style)fight like the good old 90's Hong Kong cop, and villain have to fight together to survive movies. Beyond those things and a really good cast who are utterly wasted, and do not all seem at the top of their game due to an obviously rushed production, there is nothing else of any value to take from this movie. The script is completely broken, the Warden gives play by play to his subordinates for some reason, and when you are using night vision and the search light is pointed right at you, it is still going to see you, the night vision does not make you invisible. Oh, but I'm leaving it there, and I can tell you there are quite a few more completely terrible moments just like those. I did not end up Enjoying this movie, and do not recommend it to anyone but a complete movie junkie who loves stuff pumped out by Syfy, and Space, and Asylum, though the production quality is at least a notch up from Asylum I have to point out. And yes Joanne Kelly is in there a lot, though never seems to know what she should (She hasn't the hook-up it would seem).
kevinkishin First off this movie is simple no B.S., a modest budget with good actors no over the top camera tricks you can follow the storyline without getting sick during the action sequences, I wish more action films especially Military Espionage films would follow this model, as for Tony Giglio stay true to your TRADE CRAFT!!!!!!! furthermore don't be mislead by some of the other reviews you might have read about this film, Extraction can stand on it's own merit without Hollywood hype. Director Tony Giglio should be an A list director his style is his own unfiltered no B.S., he's shown that he can work with simple actors an actresses with no ego problems.
pinheadmother77 I have seen action on screen in all its forms. Whether it was Bruce Willis fighting Germans in a building or Steven Seagal killing rouge Navy Mercenaries on a boat, I've seen it. However for the past few years, aside from legendary actioneers like Stallone or Schwarzenegger keeping the genre alive, action film have gone really downhill. It is a category of film making that has almost disappeared entirely because of guys like Peter Berg and Louis Leterrier, who instead of having quality actors doing real stunts in places other people wouldn't think possible, they place pretty boys like Jamie Foxx and Sam Worthington into lackluster scenarios and just let their doubles do the work while they capture the "action" with the most annoyingly shaky camera work in order to make the action more "realistic." Ironically enough however, in reality, its all BS. Now in comes Tony Giglio, writer and director of the amazingly underrated 2005 action thriller Chaos, with his new film Extraction, a old-school die hard action film that pulls no punches, literately. The fight sequences make guys like Jason Bourne look too liberal. It is hard to believe a film that was shot in 18 days and made on only a million dollars could come out this good and deliver action as rock solid as this. With almost no CGI and some of the greatest martial art scenes ever filmed, fans of the right kind of action movies will dig Extraction. With cool performances by Vinnie Jones and Jon Foo, this is Die Hard meets Delta Force meets the Raid: Redemption. In summation folks, why Tony Giglio isn't directing Expendables 3, I'll never know.
