Extraction grants you all the thrill, action, directing, choreography, and visuality that an action movie can offer. It's two hours of non-stop bloodshed and violence. It would be an excellent example of its genre if it was not trivialized with far-fetched drama.

Tyler is a character who has already completed his development. He has his issues, yes but he's ruthless, he's professional, he's determined. He knows what to do and he is part of a larger operation run by other professionals. Instead of adding this pointless emotional motivation, they could easily install operational complications and still keep him motivated to finish the job and save the boy. Do you ever realize how stupid it looks to get emotional for the long-dead son in the middle of an extraction mission in which you killed dozens of hostiles? He is not that kind of character, it is not that kind of movie. The same goes for Saju too.
