Projeto Extração

I went in the movie thinking it was some big shot Hollywood movie, boy was I wrong!

For a 100min movie, it fails to write up a good backstory for chan and Cena.

The plot is nonsensical and the acting sub-par. Infact so sup-bar it was funny at times.

Not gonna lie, the only thing I enjoyed was chan and Cena's duo performance.

Furthermore, the story has no soul, and jackie chans acrobatic performance carried the movie to a 6 from a 4.

IMDB says Stallone was supposed to be with chan instead of Cena. That would've been a career disaster.

Watchable, but only at home when you can spare an hour and a half.

Now I am both a Jackie Chan fan and John Cena fan, so naturally I had to see it. The first thing that striked me was the sheer number of companies that were in association with making this movie. I mean it was no Lawrence of Arabia, or Avatar or anything huge like that, so why so many particpants? Were they that short of cash and resources?

Anyway both the leads in their own right are superb comedy/action movie stars. Senn both of them in many movies. But unfortunately in this movie I did not see the usual click or bonding that Jackie makes with other Hollywood names he has starred with.

In most part they both looked uncomfortable and just following the script. The action and stunt sequences were very good. And I disagree with one contributor saying the CGI was poor. I have seen a lot of movies where the CGi has been comically terrible, this was not one of them.

Anyway I still enjoyed the movie, and hats really off to Jackie for still doing what he loves and does best at his age! Let's see if Tom Cruise can keep it up when he's Jackie's age and do breathtaking stunts in the Mission Impossible movies.

Fun, Not Good, But Fun. There is more wrong here than right, but it has a fun tone and a lot of action. Jackie Chan is Always fun to watch regardless of the vehicle. This is true even as he ages, and even as the project is not great. He is fun here. John Cena is larger than life. This is part of the charm and appeal of the pairing; however, it is also part of the problem. He is too animated for what should be a more serious tone to this action thriller. The special effects are good, although too much computer generation at times. The fights are decent. Always something interesting with Jackie Chan. There is a problem with the balance of violence here. There is a lot of violence but there is a real aversion to killing which doesn't really fit the otherwise violent tone. There is stuff here for young people, but many missed opportunities for sure.

Like Jackie Chan. I like John Cena. But they were not good in this. I would liken it to a James Bond movie with Rodger Moore. It was...bad. Just all levels of ridiculousness, and not in a good way. Also, wow, Jackie Chan has really messed with his face too much...

The humor was really forced...The plot didn't make sense and also felt very rushed? I'm sure they had fun making this but it's one of those things where I spent less time focusing on the movie than wondering who came up with the idea for this and how did they get the buy in to move ahead with actually making it? I guess watch it if you're bored or want something on in the background...

Finally a top funny action movie with some never seen stunts or combat scenes before.

I didn't expect such an entertaining evening.

I mean this is a good example how they can fight without killing always with full of bullets or never ending boum boum. The result was a really creative thriller without.so many brutal numbers as we can see in John Wick or other similar movies.

The special effects were well done and the dialogs weren't so serious but just amusingly.

A nice enriching production on Netflix in this category. The filming locations offered the right atmosphere and it was fast paced so that you can't look away and doing other things. It's captivating and surprises as I mentioned with original ideas. I hope there will be a sequel. 6/10.
