This is a love story to the US Marine Corps with a self-sacrificial lieutenant and a tireless staff sergeant so inspiring that a squad will follow him back into action instead of taking an officer-ordered rest… and there are aliens.
With excellent fight choreography, camerawork, and general production values, Extraction suffers only from thorough predictability.
This engaging movie about oppressed people with powers hit the marks with strong performances and effects, but failed to give women roles other than "prize" or "motive" and kept the main cast predominantly, almost stubbornly, white.
This movie spends altogether too much time with laboratory hijinx, paints capitalists and unions as anti-progress (half-true), and ends in a whimper, but it's neat seeing young Alec Guiness.
Somebody tried to breed a traditional movie emotionless tough guy (Liam Neeson) with a Coen brothers film, and it came out... all right?
This movie doesn’t have a consistent theme or CGI, but at least it has lots of monsters to shoot at and a pointless 90 seconds talking about a gun from the video game.
This film has a promising premise and some moments of good chemistry, but it can’t track moment-to-moment whether the protagonist should be a teenage superspy or a naif who learned social habits from high school movies.
