Extraction

Extraction was an entertaining action film that was just fun. It has a serious plot but the film never takes it self too seriously. All the actors do a great job. Sean Astin, Danny Glover and Vinnie Jones all do their thing. But it was the unknown stars of the film that really stole the show. I didn't know who Jon Foo or Falk Hentschel was before this. But I do now. Foo is a beast. And Falk has the looks and acting chops to be a breakout star. I just saw he's also in the new Nolan- produced Johnny Depp film TRANSCENDENCE.

The tone of the film starts out serious, but ever so naturally, the film lightens its mood and becomes wonderfully comedic. It, however, never strays from the action nor does it forget it's plot. Some nice story twists and turns keep you guessing.

I gave it 9 out of 10. Very fun solid piece. The first film I ever watched on Crackle. I'll watch more from now on. I'll also be on the lookout for more Foo and Hentschel.

Quite an effective knockout film with the whirling fighting flea Jon FOO.

He plays a black ops agent who is tasked with freeing a mysterious prisoner (Falk HENTSCHEL) in a Chechen super-prison. The plot itself isn't particularly spectacular. The main thing is to let the talented cascader Jon FOO survive various fights. And that's where the film really delivers. Especially Jon FOO's fights with a superior number of bodybuilders or a huge Paul DUKE are really awesome and worth seeing.

The Leipzig actor Falk HENTSCHEL (*1982) cuts a surprisingly good figure as FOO's sidekick. Despite appearances by Sean ASTIN and Danny GLOVER, the film was not a great success, so there were no sequels. But the film is definitely worth seeing for action fans!

While this was clearly not a big-budget, blockbuster, mega-action, summer-release, slug fest, it was a surprisingly good movie. Relative newcomer Jon Foo gives a veteran performance with an excellent display of his martial arts skills and better-than-workman-like acting skills. Sean Astin and Danny Glover have some unfortunately somewhat two-dimensional roles, but Joanne Kelly, who it's nice to see is still finding work after Warehouse 13, brings a Myka Bering-esque likability to her role. For me, the lowest point in this movie is the tiresome Vinnie Jones. If you're not familiar with his work, just watch this movie and you'll have a pretty good handle on it. (yawn) Meanwhile, the story itself is not totally far-fetched and the fight choreography and special effects are definitely up to snuff. All-in-all, it's a good, Saturday afternoon, nothing else to do way to spend an hour and 45 minutes.

Extraction is an action, thriller film directed by Tony Giglio and Stars Jonathan Patrick Foo, Falk Hentschel, Vinnie Jones, Joanne Kelly and Danny Glover.

A US black ops team is sent to Chechen to extract a terrorist, the operation wasn't looking smooth and didn't go smooth.

Every film has a plot, it's screenplay and it's outcome but in the case of this film the plot is there, execution of the screenplay is there but there is no outcome and there purpose of the film hasn't met and after seeing the undercooked and unfinished climax I am still not been able to understand why the film was even made.

Acting is just average and none of the character were impressive and were below average apart from Jonathan Patrick Foo was the only one who looked average.

Screenplay of the film was also average and despite of fast paced action scenes didn't excites much. Climax of the film was unfinished and it seems that the director finished the film in a hurry without having any purpose.

Please ignore.

I looked at the other reviews for this movie and I seriously wondered if they watched the same movie I just saw. Then I noticed that there were very few reviews, and I realised that the majority of people who were unfortunate enough to waste time and money on this absolute rubbish, probably just wanted to erase the experience from their memories. That seasoned movie stars such as Danny Glover and Vinnie Jones could have any part in this I think shows that money is now more important to them than either their fans or their self respect. There is absolutely nothing even remotely good about this movie, so there is no point in listing all the things that are wrong with it. It is easier to just say that it was mind boggling bad, and I was enticed to watch it because of the cast, which I am sure was the producers plan. Shame on all Participants in this farce. Stay far away from this movie.
