A lot of Netflix movies in particular are meh. I remember the first Extraction bring a more fun dumb action one. I liked Hitman with Glenn Powell this year. Maybe check it out

Recently watched Extraction as well, and some of the action is just bad, like Charlies Angels meets Fast & Furious bad... straight up Hollywood schlock

Right. But I was here for all of it. That knife fight in the street was incredible.

I enjoyed it too. There were a few giant plot holes but I was glad I watched it.

You think she's mega hot? She looks fake as hell and there is just something off about her. I mean she's attractive, but I wouldn't say she's mega hot.

Yeah, her face just seems plastic or something. Definitely seemed a bit off. Movie wasn't bad but as Buehler said, giant plot holes and the guy making horrible decisions caused most of the issues.

Red One was actually a pretty good Christmas movie. I liked it the most out of all the movies I have seen recently.

You like this movie? Terrible in my opinion. So many plot fails with many moments that don't make sense or are completely unrealistic.
I did a lot of eye rolling on this watch.

Carry On's biggest fail is how they tried to market it as a "Die Hard Christmas Thriller!" and I can't recall one memorable line from the movie

It'll do if you're fatigued from scrolling and its the first thing their algorithm pops up for you so you're like **** it, but something people are going to watch over and over, not even close

Looked pretty good to me. May have been the scene where she was being all loving, sweet, and supportive with the main character that really appealed to me.

Turns out she’s Colombian, by the way.

I called it an “enjoyable one-off” meaning I didn’t hate it but I’ll never watch it again. There are worse ways to spend a couple hours, IMO.

Yeah the action was nonstop, and maybe slightly more believable than Gray Man

But after a while its just like how much can one man pull off, and how much punishment can he take? I'm not sure even the most hardened and skilled Delta/Seal guy could do everything Hemsworth did

Didn’t you grow up in the 80s? Didn’t like Commando, Rambo, etc.?

Oh yeah nobody is getting that dohe, but is it any less believable than Lone Survivor?

Extraction takes a ton of flack, but it does what it sets out to do really well.

Hell yeah, watching Commando stoned in the 80s was awesome. It's a hilarious movie.

I watched Commando for the first time a handful of years ago as a grown adult. It really was awesome.

But, like, you can’t have enjoyed that and also complain about modern one-man-army movies lol

I absolutely did, but I was also a teenager with less than sophisticated tastes

Still enjoy those movies to this day they're just viewed through a different, nostalgic type lens

Well LS actually happened and he didn't pull off half of the wild action from Extraction, heh

Extraction was solid action and I don't feel like it was a waste of time, it was enjoyable... guess I'm just getting picky in my old age lol
