Operação Resgate

A total disappointment leading me to avoid any future movie promoting Bruce Willis. He was in the movie 5 minutes, at best. What a sell-out! For whatever reason, this site requires me to add more information in order to qualify enough lines to post a review. How many lines of text does one need to state the movie is disappointing, bad, not entertaining, overdone as to violence, poorly scripted, using no-name unbelievable unattractive actors. Do not waste your time watching this movie as I have spent trying to reach the required (ten) number of lines of review in order to allow my review to be accepted. The "leading female actress" was overweight and lacking any sexual appeal while the lead actor "son of Willis" was a cardboard hero possessing little if any acting skill.

Bruce here plays a CIA agent who gets captured by the enemy on a very important mission,and the son,who's a cia wannabe field agent have to find him and save him.That's basically the entire story

This movie is nothing new under the sun. Bruce Willis does his usual under par performance.Which he seem to be doing a lot of lately. Gina Cerano certainly haven't been given much,for her MMA skills to work with. And the male lead is such a bad actor you laugh.Every time he knocks down someone,he takes a half a minute pause,just to gloat There's no chemistry between him and Gina,and they are suppose to be ex lovers.They try to convince you they were once a couple, with mixing some baby talk in between and talking in half sentences.Pretending they have long history together..But alas the chemistry is all wrong

Whats worse is, every darn bad guy know MMA.no matter how low on the totem pole they are,they seem to be excellent figthers. And our male hero have to struggle to fight every last one of them,no matter how scrawny they are. And he is supposed to be super good,top of his class on all levels,who have been passed over several times for field duty.

Remember the 80's? The direct to video kung fu/ martial arts action movies ,with Michael dudikoff,jean claude,Steven seagal,Dolph lundgren etc.When every bad guy they came up against knew martial arts? You had good elegant fighting scenes,with the camera way back.

Heres the problem.Back in the days,that stuff worked.You were okay with every bad guy knowing kung fu,it worked,because it was that type of movie. With this movie it doesn't

The fights are boring, and lousy choreographed. The characters are even worse ,the plot is boring,and predictable. Gina is reduced to being a sidekick, and ex girlfriend,and even her fights are way below par,for what you could expect from having her in a movie. Watch haywire instead. Gina have to struggle with beating up a lowe life henchman

This is one of the worst movies of the year, if not the decade. If this doesn't end Carano's and Lutz' career, nothing will.

Dull, boring, totally inconsistent and full of gaffes. They seem to have shot this for a low budget and then had to finish it off in 2 days. There are so many holes in the plot that the viewer is expected to write half the script of the movie.

Action scenes are okay, but they look incredibly choreographed and lack credibility. After a 5 minute fight, the actors look as fresh as having come out of the shower.

Lackluster performances from all main characters, even DB Sweeney who usually us pretty solid. This movie is a waste of time.

But you have to stick to the formula for making what's at heart a C movie actually entertain the target audience, drunk dudes. That formula? Simple storyline, bare bones dialogue, and expertly choreographed fight scenes that come no more than five minutes apart. The script was terrible from beginning to end. Bruce Willis tells a bad guy "Don't you ever threaten my family", just before delivering the kill shot. Immediately I got a bad feeling, because the line should have been "Nobody threatens my family" in order to make sense as far continuity. That may seem like a small detail to someone who isn't a writer but trust me, words matter. The dialogue never gets better and though most of the fight scenes are okay, enough of them are badly staged that it detracts from the only thing that makes the film worth seeing. The acting was below average with the exception of Bruce Willis, who phoned it in but is still a veteran. Gina Carano was under utilized, which seems to keep happening to her. There are too many bad movies that are still a lot of fun for you to waste time on this one. 4 out of 10.

There are two movies with the same title "Extraction" for release in 2015. One which stars Bruce "Moonlighting & "Die Hard" Willis and sexy fighter turned actress Gina Carano. The other, a non union low budget full of unknown actors/actresses {actor-director, Tim Kirkpatrick, Caitlin Custer and Iranian-American actress Medalion Rahimi. The latter is set to be on DVD and the i- net later this month.

I have seen Bruce in much better action films, especially "Die Hard "1 & 2 and "The Jackal" with the brilliant Sidney Poitier. This movie is as bad as his old movie "Hudson Hawk". The action is predictable as well as the outcome ending. Some guys look good doing fight scenes beating up 5 or 6 guys such as real good martial artist/actors Wesley Snipes and Michael J. White. Even brilliant academy award winner, Denzel Washington's fight scenes in "Equalizer" and brilliant actor, Liam Neeson in all three "Taken" movies fight scenes looked way better than in this movie.

Kellan Lutz is not impressive. He is better doing non action films. His fight scene with the Asian man in the warehouse mid way in the film, the Asian man would have beat the hell out of him, but the script was written for Kellan to win. The only reason I am rating it a 5 is because sexy fighter turned actress, Gina Carano is in it. Gina is the saving grace of this movie. Gina is a real good fighter, nice figure, sexy and prettier than her competitor, Ronda Rousey.

Please "Extract" this movie from my eye sight.
