Check your brain at the door and let the Ramboian-John-Wick action sweep you away for 120 minutes. Call of Duty on film, Extraction 2 loses some of the tight-knit focus of the first film, but makes up by delivering some absolutely awe-inspiring set pieces that seem to just go and go. Sure the cuts and transitions between shots aren't as clean as the original, but the pure size and scale of these action segments is impressive and more than make up for the lack of shine. As much buzz as the prison escape will get from tabloids and film mags, I thought the train sequence was one of the best end-to-end action sequences I've seen for a long time. I thought the top-down oner from John Wick 4 would hold that title for the foreseeable future but here we are not a few months later, with a Netflix movie taking the crown. While we're comparing to Keanu, I think I prefer Extraction and its sequel now because it knows exactly what it is. There isn't silly lore about the table and consecrated grounds and Bulgarian crime rings that can give you immunity or favours etc etc _etc_; it's just an over the top action reel with a bit of family drama to tie it all together. Fantastic action movie, I hope they can cap this off with one final entry.
