Critics Consensus

Spectacular stunt work and an electric performance from Chris Hemsworth can't save Extraction from being dragged down by its aimless violence.

2.5/5

The action is what saves Extraction from being totally written off considering its story and characters are so generic - the screenplay from Joe Russo (Avengers: Endgame) does it no favours.

Head shot, body shot, Hemsworth sad, brown people bad, head shot, body shot. That's the rhythm of Extraction, and yes, it's also a white-savior narrative.

The body count is off the scale, yet you may well find the cartoonish violence oddly lulling. I did.

The charisma and intensity of these actors tries visibly hard to render Extraction the raw urgency its mildly ambitious setting incessantly craves.

Despite its rather frustrating storytelling issues, Hargrave’s “Extraction” remains a compelling action thriller that continues to hold your attention throughout by its sheer kinetic power.

I honestly loved this movie. Extraction is one of the best action movies I’ve ever seen, maybe even the best. What makes it stand out is how engaging it is from start to finish. There’s constant, intense action, and I was never bored for a second. Usually, I’ve seen some people say the main character kills too many soldiers and policemen who are just following orders, all to save one person. That’s a fair point, but at the same time, this is a pure action movie. Not every film needs to focus on morality or realism. Sometimes, it’s enough to deliver non-stop action, and this movie does that extremely well. Chris Hemsworth was excellent. I already liked him as Thor, but this movie made me a real fan. Seeing him outside Marvel and still carrying the film so strongly was impressive. Overall, if you enjoy fast-paced, non-stop action, this movie is definitely worth watching. 10/10 from me.

It ends up relying on the good action scenes to compensate for plot.

The humour sprinkled in pairs surprisingly well with the action and I think letting Chris' character be Aussie adds a nice touch as well, especially with lines like telling people to 'piss off' as he hits them.

Extraction gives me the vibes of John wick intensity and Just Cause video game franchise settings, location, characters, themes, and Hemsworth excels. The performance that Hemsworth puts on reveals more levels than what we’ve seen when he portrays the God of Thunder. We see a more intense, emotional side that is very refreshing. There is a good mix of real life war experience, and Hollywood action and I think that’s what I really appreciate about it even more.
