Extraction 2 was awesome.
Pros: I really like how this film is a continuation from the previous one. This film was so jam-packed of Action. Chris Hemsworth was excellent in his role, and I was surprised by the ending to this sequel.
Cons: The dialogue was hard to understand at times. Sandro did a lot of stupid decisions in my opinion and that’s it.
