‘Extraction’ review: Chris Hemsworth kicks ass in so-so action flick

nypost.com:

Sometimes it’s refreshing when a movie is just an improper noun that delivers what it promises. That’s “Extraction,” an ultraviolent action film in which a free-agent soldier is tasked with rescuing an Indian drug lord’s teenage son from the clutches of a rival Bangladeshi drug lord.

He needs to extract the boy, Ovi (Rudhraksh Jaiswal), to cash his check. That’s it. If there was a test at the end, we’d all pass.

A twist arrives here and there, and Chris Hemsworth’s Tyler Rake gradually reveals his emotional storms during the film’s few calm moments.

But it’s still fairly predictable. You don’t need Frasier Crane to tell you that an average, contented person does not become a trigger-happy mercenary willy-nilly.
