Extraction felt to me like Donald Trump. What was promised in the trailer, was more or less delivered in the film. And the purists be damned.

There is relentless action. I didn't count but I believe Hemsworth would have slayed 200+ soldiers in the 100 minute run time. The action set pieces are designed to blow you away. There is one in particular, a 10 minute long, one - shot sequence that should make watching this worth your while.

The story is as long as it's IMDb summary. There is nothing more to it. It is meant to appeal to the lowest common denominator and that it does in almost every frame.

Hemsworth doesn't have much to do, in the acting department. He has to sling a machine gun or draw a knife and kill/maim every living being, be it a boy or a man, that he comes across. Randeep Hooda gets a surprisingly long bit and does as good as he can.

There would be detractors who would cry about the lack of aesthetics and a deep storyline, about big wasteful budget. But, that is what was promised in the trailer and that is what it delivers in dollops.

If you are in the mood for mindless action, look no further.
