@@michaelbrennan9156yes, because you come up with one bad example, ALL other stunt coordinators should give up their dreams of directing a solid action film, good job
@@edkwon I am with @Michael Brennan on this. Just because two good stunt choreographers made good movies that does not mean that they will all make good movies.
The problem for me was the premise was amazing - a woman who’s trapped inside a prison with her children - and her merc ex-brother in law is the only person to rescue her - is amazing on paper. But then everyone becomes braindead - and you’re forced to turn your brain off - when you thought the movie would have an actually intriguing story.
Magic Spoon is great. My sister gave me some but she told me it’s $10 a box. The box is small compared to others we buy. I don’t make enough money to pay $10.
@@firstlast9846 Yeah it's mainly Sandro's character that offsets everything for me after the incredible 21 minute oner. That and the tone is too damn serious in between the action bits, but that's the divide between this and something like John Wick. Wick has fun with itself and has more personality although it does really make you suspend your disbelief more often than not with its world building and physics, which Extraction doesn't do as much. At least in the first Extraction the kid was more likable and I liked the pacing better. The best bits of this one feels like watching The Raid 2 or a John Wick movie, but the weaker bits felt more like a slightly better Taken sequel.
It is a great action movie. The entire "one-shot" sequence felt like it was from a video game - in a good way. The villain was better and more menacing than the villain from the first movie, and overall, the scope of this one just felt bigger and better.
I really hope we get more movies like Extraction and John Wick. from the epic one take sequences in extraction, to still camera angles and letting the stunt speak for themselves in John Wick. I have a whole new appreciation for action movies because of these films. absolutely badass
Imagine JW filmed like Extraction, where it's just a 2 hour one-take where the camera is never more than 10 feet from JW at any time... Both styles are great, in JW it's like you're watching everything happen, like a bystander. In Extraction it feels more like a lot of a time everything is happening TO you, you're IN this shit, it's filmed so close and so 'flowy' it really is like you're in what's happening. You go from OMG that guy startled JW to OMG that guy almost got ME, luckily Tyler saw him...
@@RobertMorgan absolutely!! Totally agree with you. Both are amazing. I just saw JW 4 and I’m baffled at how they can pull off such long stunts, let alone the attention to detail on the fight scenes are spectacular
Just seen it an hour ago and... HOLY SHIT, this is what peak action stuff looks like. The stunts, the brutallity of some kills, the variety of sequences, the hand to hand combat and of course the beautiful gun play in clear wide shots that just dont end. With this 2nd movie Extraction is officially in the upper leagues with John Wick and Mission Impossible franchises. And we're getting a third one with that obvious cliffhanger ending. Chris Hemsworth killed it
@isan10adijbruh. Respectfully, i think everyone who loves action has seen the raid at this point. No need to keep bringing it up whenever someone praises another action movie haha.
Did you see the guys when they landed? One guy really looks like cgi. Not saying he was but something about the way he moved before breaching the door made me hit pause. Nonetheless i enjoyed the skyscraper scene, ive been looking forward to this movie for awhile now. Next one up for me The Equalizer 3
That one shot scene was awesome! I was pleasantly suprised by how it kept going and switching viewpoints. Overall, i really liked this movie and the pacing was perfect
Not at all guys, he has a lot of great movies outside Thor, Cabin in the woods was fucking amazing, Rush was really great, 12 soldiers was long but a fine movie, those two Extraction movies were excellent and fun and also his roles in Vacation & Ghostbusters 2016 were hilarious, the movies were absolutely terrible reboot movies, some of the worst movies I have ever seen but his performances and comedy timing were absolutely hilarious in those movies. So I think he has a decent career outside of Thor
It’s really rare when a female operator who kicks so much ass is actually believable, but that French chick KILLED it. She’s so awesome and cementing her partnership with Rake (which will apparently continue in Extraction 3) was the highlight of the movie for me.
This was much better than the 1st one. I feel like the characters were better written in this one than the 1st Extraction movie. I liked how they delved deeper into the character of Tyler Rake's past. I was also glad to see Nik in on the action too which was so much more thrilling than the 1st one. Can't wait for the potential 3rd part which was teased at the end. Also I agree with you. I would have loved to see this spectacle in theatres.
I have watch it again. It was great. I think I’m biased towards E1 bc it was so original n completely unexpected for me. I really wasn’t expecting anything when I first saw E1 n I loved it. E2 is in another level with the action though.
Imo this was miles ahead of the first movie. And yes that 21 minute oner was just mind bogling. A very deserved attention HAS to go to the sound engineers, im kinda surprised you didnt touch on the subject about how good the guns sound in this movie. The sound of the guns, specially in the action scenes at the building, were absolutely spot on. Its very common for guns to just sound "misplaced" in a movie. A gunshot at the streets sound exactly the same as a shot in a room. But in this movie every single shot sounds like it was sonicaly placed exactly where it should be for the given enviroment, i enjoyed that the most
I wish it had been in theatres too. I feel like as an audience member the least you can do is schlep out and see this with some ceremony given the sheer effort this team put into making the film. Great movie 🤌🤌
Extraction 2 was good as hell from beginning to end. The escape from the prison, the train scene, the skyscraper dammit all of it was just so good. This movie deserves to be in theaters.
Well keep wondering wtf an Oscar for what maybe film editing? Don't get me wrong it's fairly enjoyable to sit down and turn off your brain to, but jfc it's so unrealistic no way anyone could get through that prison riot especially while dragging around kids and woman lol not to mention let me take out not 1 but 2 helicopters while they have a gatlin gun shooting right at you. If you want a fucking video game on your screen to watch instead of play as an oscar then sure lol. cool action does not translate to Oscars, the first was sleek and cool semi realistic where the guy dies at the end you have to suspend all reality in this movie just to bring back the guy you just killed, if you want to watch an action movie that is actually worthy of an award check out mosul arguably just as much action (just not the set pieces or budget of this) and has actual ramifications not to mention it's incredibly emotional and political without ever having to explain that for even a split second.
@@sabertooth207 probably bc in 1978 it reset and redefined cinema standards, and had a cult following immediately and made you think beyond it's own world something the Oscars at least try to incorporate in most of their choices. Extraction while having some cool ideas and scenes can hardly be defined as art it was cool for the two hours or so that you sat through it but if you spend years talking about it you obviously haven't seen much. It's about as vapid as it comes
I’m so happy to watch this movie! I’d say it’s just as great as the first one and the ending definitely implies that there will be more and I’m all in for it!😁
I heard this shares the same universe as “The Gray Man” which is fine I guess.. but they need to remove John Luther from it - he’s not really built for an action franchise.. they should just continue making his TV show.
The cinematography and stunt work is just so seamless, it really scratches that action packed itch that just isnt found in movies these days. Absolutely incredible sequel that I think may even be more well rounded than the original
Incredible action films is what you get when directors truly embrace and understand action on such a fundamental and spiritual level. Can't wait to watch this film.
It was just nice to see Hemsworth just being a badass. I quite liked both Nik and Yaz as well. They were all pretty badass. And there is just enough emotional content to keep the viewer engaged without distracting from the action.
There are small things in this movie that is very simple but not many movies do it. Like the Helicopter dropping down instead of flying up to avoid gunfire. The Frag Grenades don't explode with too much fire, just shrapnel. Body size actually matters in the fight.
I have a bit mixed feelings about Extraction 2. The action in Extraction 2 is extremely well made, clearly better than the action in Extraction 1 (which was also very good). Also I appreciate that they tried to put some character development into it, though those scenes slowed the tempo down a bit too much. I think the story of Extraction 1 is a bit better and also I even prefer the limited character development in the first move to the attempts to do the same in the second. But I did have a very good time seeing both movies, so in the end they both get my thumbs up!
One thing I absolutely love about this movie is how they portray a woman realistically performing in combat. And Golshifteh definitely delivered in that. Now don't get me wrong. She definitely kicked ass but she also had some struggles which are definitely realistic to how women would be on the battlefield. Chris Hemsworth's Tyler Rake also had his struggles but he handles them much better in a sense that he's a lot tankier than Golshifteh's Nik Khan is even though both are just as well-trained as each other. On top of all of the combat stuff, the way Tyler Rake and Nik Khan interact with one another in heart to heart moments are always a treat. You always get the sense that maybe they might get together, maybe not, but at the end of the day, they are partners. Not necessarily in the romantic sense but as badass buddies. In short, she's not a girlboss. She's just a woman.
Just finished watching it. Didn’t think a sequel would top the first film because it was so well done but I was dead wrong 😳 This is easily in my top 5 favourite/recommended action movies of all time now
they're definitely turning this into the next JW franchise and I'm here for it! Golshifteh surprised me and her combat scenes were really good. nice work all!
The story was atrocious and the dialogue felt weird.. then I saw one of the Russo’s wrote it and it made sense.. some of their dialogue sometimes ends up sounding off.
The first one was good to me. This one man...real trash. Still cant get over the fact that Rack held onto the pole after being shot in the middle of his palm. Mann..I wanted to turn off at that point.
Went in with fairly low expectations as the first one was ok, all I remember is Chris beating the crap out of some guy for 10 mins straight and some clever stunts. This one is next level in every way possible. Better story, better dialogue, bigger budget, better stunts, etc. The prison yard scene is nuts and if you're anything like me you'll be laughing a few times at the epicness of the action scenes. Can recommend and am looking forward to part 3.
This movie feels a lot like The Raid 1&2.. The fighting, the hand to hand combat, the shot continuity, the prison riot scene, the karambit weapon used for fighting, the brutality of using anything to be a weapon, the knives stabs, and a lot more.. I enjoyed it.. this movie deserves to be in theatres. I love how nik & yaz gets bigger role in action. Will there be extraction 3? I hope so
This movie should have been a theatrical release. It's my favorite movie of the year so far. Netflix dropped the ball by not having it on the big screen. It's not too late. I recommend they get it on some screens if they can.
Extraction’s 1 & 2 we’re amazing and I only hope they put the same amount of effort and care into the 3rd one. And that it’s released in the theaters. And I have to say, Golshifteh Farahani is easily my celebrity/Hollywood crush. She’s absolutely gorgeous and a complete bada**.
i like the formula of what they're doing to this franchise. the heart of the story has let them film in different countries giving these countries the opportunity to shine.
Simple is better when it comes to action. Let’s all take a moment to appreciate that this is 80’s Commando that has been refurbished, renovated, and updated.
3:59 LOL the laugh is contagious. I loved the action in this movie and this is exactly the reaction I was hoping for from you, Chris. I kept thinking "this is giving John Wick a run for his money."
Got a chance to check this out early in theaters. It was amazing. Sam Hargrave spoke about some of the scenes. He said the train and helicopter scene was practical. The next one should be in theaters for a lil bit.
It's so surprising when Thor is able to be so agile, I guess that Asgardian armor really weighed him down. I love it when big guys are graceful. Of course he also smashes things, and that's good too.
The son really passed me off. How on earth can you watch your dad beat the holy he'll out of your mom and still think he's a good, and then get passed off at the good guy for killing him in defending your mom's life?!
I got all the way into the one-take shot to where the camera 'flies' up to the overpass and starts following a different antagonist into the building I had to stop and go this has been one single shot for how long? Rewind...wow, well done, and it's still going!
I enjoyed this one more than John Wick 4 tbh but I also realize that is a purely personal thing. The "Wick-verse" and the whole "cabal ruling the world"-thing doesn't appeal to me, but the self-contained nature of the Extraction movies really do.
Great action film. Up to par and I would say even a little better than the first one. Anyone caught the director cameo with Sam Hargrave digging the hole before the villain drops the suit guy at the beginning of the film?
I saw both Extraction 2 and JohnWick 4 this weekend for the first time. I loved both but honestly I think I liked extraction 2 a little better. It kinda reminded me of The Raid. Really liked it and can’t wait to see the next.
Oh man the funniest death to me was that dude that was unconscious and he slid of the side of the building. Man such an awful way to go out, I couldn’t help but 😂 😂
Hemsowrth being in some of the most hated franchise movies made in the last couple years (Thor: Dark World and L&T) and MIB: International has really overshadowed the fact that he's an underrated actor.
The action of this film is insane. I absolutely love the camera work as well it makes you feel like you're in there great work i'd give this movie a 10/10. Chris Wick 🔥
It’s Hemsworths version of John Wick. He’s just asked for help and he goes and kicks ass. Doesn’t need a real huge plot. Just action packed cinematography
Be very rare for 2 flicks to be streamed, then have the 3rd be a theatrical release. Don’t think that’s ever happened, but this would definitely be a success.
@Benson i don't have youtube premium, yes i'm annoyed with most ads, I'm just saying hearing Chris talk about his sponsors is fun and interesting and he has a good speaking voice, so that's why I don't skip his sponsors
Not knowing anything about this movie going in . The one thing I remember mentioning was how well done the camera shots and long scenes were, the emersion really stood out. It turned a 5.8/10 movie into a 7.8/10 movie .
fantastic film from the start to finish, the 21 minutes action scene was exhilarating, incredible. love action films like the extraction and john wick franchises.
Between the John Wick franchise and Extraction, who needs Marvel or DC? Nothing that is produced from the latter, with their over reliance on CG, can compare to well shot and choreographed action sequences that both the John Wick and Extraction franchises offer. Additionally, from a storytelling perspective, the smaller and intimate scale of John Wick and Extraction makes them far more relatable than comic book franchises where the fate of the entire world, universe, or multiple time lines are at stake.
I couldn't help but think to myself: " This movie deserves to be experienced in the theaters".. im seriously hoping that Netflix gives it a shot and rewards the team and the audience with an Extraction 3 theatrical release.
This theater crap. I loved it. Watched at home. Looked great. Great sound. Fuck a theater.
True but if it’s on Netflix we can also stay home and watch it which isn’t bad but wouldn’t mind😅

The story was atrocious and the dialogue felt weird.. then I saw one of the Russo’s wrote it and it made sense.. some of their dialogue sometimes ends up sounding off.
The first one was good to me. This one man...real trash. Still cant get over the fact that Rack held onto the pole after being shot in the middle of his palm. Mann..I wanted to turn off at that point.
Went in with fairly low expectations as the first one was ok, all I remember is Chris beating the crap out of some guy for 10 mins straight and some clever stunts.
This one is next level in every way possible. Better story, better dialogue, bigger budget, better stunts, etc. The prison yard scene is nuts and if you're anything like me you'll be laughing a few times at the epicness of the action scenes.
Can recommend and am looking forward to part 3.
I was surprised when I saw the first one and enjoyed it so much , i need to watch this one now that you gave it a great review! Thanks Chris!!
I absolutely loved this movie. I was in awe of the action and the way it was filmed
This movie feels a lot like The Raid 1&2..
The fighting, the hand to hand combat, the shot continuity, the prison riot scene, the karambit weapon used for fighting, the brutality of using anything to be a weapon, the knives stabs, and a lot more..
I enjoyed it.. this movie deserves to be in theatres.
I love how nik & yaz gets bigger role in action.
Will there be extraction 3? I hope so
This movie should have been a theatrical release. It's my favorite movie of the year so far. Netflix dropped the ball by not having it on the big screen. It's not too late. I recommend they get it on some screens if they can.
Extraction’s 1 & 2 we’re amazing and I only hope they put the same amount of effort and care into the 3rd one. And that it’s released in the theaters. And I have to say, Golshifteh Farahani is easily my celebrity/Hollywood crush. She’s absolutely gorgeous and a complete bada**.
i like the formula of what they're doing to this franchise. the heart of the story has let them film in different countries giving these countries the opportunity to shine.
What was great about this too is that all the main actors clearly did their own stunts
Definitely just a classic “don’t think ... just watch” standard popcorn flick
Well done truly 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Absolutely amazing movie! I wasn't expecting such blistering action being filmed like that!
Would love to see Chris as The Punisher with this kind of this style of filming
I liked this a lot better than John Wick 4. Just a really fun action flick
Thank you Chris. No one I care for on YT had reviewed it. I agree, this movie deserved a theatrical release.
Simple is better when it comes to action. Let’s all take a moment to appreciate that this is 80’s Commando that has been refurbished, renovated, and updated.
That’s just an insult to Commando.
That prison fight had me on the edge of my seat. Just incredible. What an excellent follow to the first 10/10
In my opinion was better than the first. More fun and less dark and gritty, less violent and less repititive. Really better sequel, loved it
3:59 LOL the laugh is contagious. I loved the action in this movie and this is exactly the reaction I was hoping for from you, Chris. I kept thinking "this is giving John Wick a run for his money."
I was absolutely blown away with the 21 minute long take. Truly fucking masterful.
Masterfully bad
@@HunterMagunter Delusional
@@ipman127 you're delusional, you like terrible movies
I’ve nvr clicked so fast on a review video in my life. Perfect thing to come home to after work!
Got a chance to check this out early in theaters. It was amazing. Sam Hargrave spoke about some of the scenes. He said the train and helicopter scene was practical. The next one should be in theaters for a lil bit.
It's so surprising when Thor is able to be so agile, I guess that Asgardian armor really weighed him down. I love it when big guys are graceful. Of course he also smashes things, and that's good too.
The son really passed me off. How on earth can you watch your dad beat the holy he'll out of your mom and still think he's a good, and then get passed off at the good guy for killing him in defending your mom's life?!
I 100% wanted to see the extraction movies in theaters.
I got all the way into the one-take shot to where the camera 'flies' up to the overpass and starts following a different antagonist into the building I had to stop and go this has been one single shot for how long? Rewind...wow, well done, and it's still going!
Chris “I like everything” Stuckmann
So cool seeing your review include some behind the scenes clips I've pulled at my work!
I like this film. I wanted a lot of ACTION with a silly plot.And this is what I got. I am happy.
I enjoyed this one more than John Wick 4 tbh but I also realize that is a purely personal thing. The "Wick-verse" and the whole "cabal ruling the world"-thing doesn't appeal to me, but the self-contained nature of the Extraction movies really do.
I really liked the first film. Great stuff behind the scenes, thanks Chris! Another great review. As usual. 🙂
I love your channel man such a awesome truthful movie reviewer don't ever change
Great action film. Up to par and I would say even a little better than the first one. Anyone caught the director cameo with Sam Hargrave digging the hole before the villain drops the suit guy at the beginning of the film?
You read that Magic Spoon plug like a hostage video.
Watched it the day it came out. I was impressed! It definitely earned a recommendation from me.
I saw both Extraction 2 and JohnWick 4 this weekend for the first time. I loved both but honestly I think I liked extraction 2 a little better. It kinda reminded me of The Raid. Really liked it and can’t wait to see the next.
Same, I definitely liked this better than the last 2 wick movies. Jw4 was so over the top it was just silly to me.
Spiderverse was my best overall movie but this movie was my best action movie so far this year.
Oh man the funniest death to me was that dude that was unconscious and he slid of the side of the building. Man such an awful way to go out, I couldn’t help but 😂 😂
Hemsowrth being in some of the most hated franchise movies made in the last couple years (Thor: Dark World and L&T) and MIB: International has really overshadowed the fact that he's an underrated actor.
All the scenes and characters had real tension and the fight scenes were some of the best ive seen because of one continuous cut
Without being interested in the film itself, I saw the making-of for its simulated one-take, and I was honestly quite impressed.
The fight scene with the woman on the train .. even that was awesome
The action of this film is insane.
I absolutely love the camera work as well it makes you feel like you're in there great work i'd give this movie a 10/10. Chris Wick 🔥
"I expect kick-ass action" You and me both, sir. Movie delivered our wishes
This is almost gareth evans level of filmmaking in this movie. I was surprised how good this film was. Really good. 8½/10
It’s Hemsworths version of John Wick. He’s just asked for help and he goes and kicks ass. Doesn’t need a real huge plot. Just action packed cinematography
Be very rare for 2 flicks to be streamed, then have the 3rd be a theatrical release. Don’t think that’s ever happened, but this would definitely be a success.
Chris' sponsors are the only ones I don't skip on UA-cam 😅
SomeMoreNews has the best ad reads
@Benson i don't have youtube premium, yes i'm annoyed with most ads, I'm just saying hearing Chris talk about his sponsors is fun and interesting and he has a good speaking voice, so that's why I don't skip his sponsors
Son of a bitch… I actually did sit through those sponsors and I want my damn bowl of magic spoon cereal now! 🤓🤓
Wick and Rake, the almost indestructible protagonists 🔥
Actions are lit!
Not knowing anything about this movie going in . The one thing I remember mentioning was how well done the camera shots and long scenes were, the emersion really stood out. It turned a 5.8/10 movie into a 7.8/10 movie .
fantastic film from the start to finish, the 21 minutes action scene was exhilarating, incredible. love action films like the extraction and john wick franchises.
After how over the top jw4 was I honestly like these better
This channel is the best. We will support him no matter what.
Honestly, this movie, and especially the 2 recent John Wick movies, were a real chore to get through.
U crazy
Between the John Wick franchise and Extraction, who needs Marvel or DC? Nothing that is produced from the latter, with their over reliance on CG, can compare to well shot and choreographed action sequences that both the John Wick and Extraction franchises offer. Additionally, from a storytelling perspective, the smaller and intimate scale of John Wick and Extraction makes them far more relatable than comic book franchises where the fate of the entire world, universe, or multiple time lines are at stake.
Loved Extraction 2 better than 1(One was good) Extraction 2 was fantastic!! Story, action, drama, fight scenes....Awesome!! 👍🏽😁👍🏽
