Todos contra uno:

Otro de esos aspectos que siempre captan la atención y que confieso que me fascina es esas escenas en donde existe una gran desventaja para el protagonista, sin embargo, con una estupenda coreografía se va desasiendo de sus enemigos, quizás ya es algo trillado, pero este tipo de escenas de ritmo alto es algo que emociona a muchos espectadores y que a igual que yo, siempre deseamos ver.

Estos filmes cuentan con varias escenas, incluso algunas son notablemente largas que resultan muy entretenidas en ese sentido de todos contra el protagonista, allí es donde quizás podemos notar falta de lógica en las secuencias, pero ya conocemos como es este tipo de los filmes de acción, si no pregúntenle a Rambo.

Sangre

Para que un filme de acción que se introduzca tanto combate cuerpo a cuerpo como disparos, es bueno introducir algo de sangre, el cine ha cambiado la manera de estos disparos, ahora son en la cabeza sin contemplación y eso impacta y al mismo tiempo le da dinamismo al filme.

En ocasiones notamos que incluso hay escenas en donde hay heridas y golpes interesantes sin volverse algo exagerado, como en una escena en donde nuestro protagonista le desfigura el rostro a un enemigo con unas mancuernas y la escena sale completa, algo que sin dudas hace pensar en un ouch.

Estas películas logran tener una mezcla bastante positiva para el amante de la acción, llegando a un balance en donde cualquiera puede ver el filme, sin tener muchos momentos de aburrimiento, teniendo en cuenta un público generalizado para lograr más suscriptores a Netflix.

Película Comercial

Estas películas son de esas que apuntan a atraer más usuarios, además de la publicidad, la cual la he visto en muchos lados, no ofrece nada más de o que hemos visto, pero al final de cuentas termina por ser una opción entretenida dentro de Netflix para una tarde llena de acción.

Desde mi perspectiva, son dos películas muy parecidas, pero que al comenzar a verlas se mantiene la atención hasta el final, debido a que no hay una trama tan profunda, su estrategia es otorgar acción dosificada desde los primeros minutos del metraje, algo que termina por enganchar al amante de la acción.

¿Éxito o Fracaso?

A mi parecer Netflix logra el objetivo de entretener y de captar la atención con estas películas, no sé de cuanto es el presupuesto para este universo cinematográfico, asumo que es mucho dinero debido a que hay muchas escenas con muy buenos efectos especiales.

En términos de presupuesto y usuarios en la plataforma de steaming, no hay muchas pistas, sin embargo, asumo que logran sus objetivos con ambos filmes.

¿Seguirá este Universo?

Apuesto a que sí, uno de los personajes que vemos muy poco es interpretado por Idris Elba, un buen actor y que quisiera ver junto a Chris Hemsworth en una nueva película, pienso que muchos opinarán lo mismo, así que el final de la segunda película nos deja esa buena sensación de que la historia continuará y Elba será una parte importante en la secuela.

¿La Recomiendo?

Sí, es un filme entretenido a pesar de que no cuenta con una historia muy profunda, quizás ese sea el factor más negativo de esta franquicia, sin embargo, podemos disfrutar de un buen ritmo y de buenas escenas de acción acompañadas de vistosos efectos especiales, así que seguramente este es un filme a considerar para los amantes de acción, disparos y combate cuerpo a cuerpo, la recomiendo abiertamente.

Extraction I and II

[English Version]

The action genre is one of my favourites, I enjoy watching an action movie every now and then, even though lately I feel that the genre has declined from a plot point of view, I feel that it can still generate a good feeling caused by fast paced and colourful fight choreographies.

Source

This time I want to talk about the films Extraction and Extraction 2, available on Netflix. I have rarely written about two movies in one post, however, both are similar in many ways and the tonality as well as the action is the same, so I will write my opinion if this saga is a hit or miss for Netflix, let's begin.

Action

The most important thing in an action film is to know how to increase the pace, as well as having scenes with good choreography in both melee and gun battles. Something that in many cases tends to be omitted in this type of film is a depth in the plot that accompanies the action, so from the moment I started watching the film I knew I wasn't going to see a story that was innovative, but one that followed the same classic script of the genre.

Source

How do you compose this kind of action script?

The Hero:

Chris Hemsworth is one of those hip actors, we know him very well from Thor at Marvel, so you feel that excitement of seeing this actor in a different facet to the god of thunder, so we have a hero who is already identified in a way by a wide section of the audience.

Something that often accompanies the hero or anti-hero in these cases (especially in shooters) is that he is broken, a trauma accompanies him and he wants to redeem himself in some way in this situation. He may murder an entire army in a ruthless manner, but he will feel compassion for some people like the girl or children as in this case.

Source

Chris Hemsworth does a good job, I think he fits the character very well and in an action movie without as much fantasy as Thor I think he does very well.

On many occasions there is an unprotected victim who is sheltered in a place that seems like an impossible mission, of course, it is an impossible mission for everyone except the protagonist who has perfect aim, superhuman endurance and extreme strength, now with the addition of a miraculous healing ability.

Despite the illogic, it's something that is usually forgivable as long as the film gives us good emotions.

Source

All against one:

Another one of those aspects that always captures the attention and that I confess that fascinates me is those scenes where there is a great disadvantage for the protagonist, however, with a great choreography he is getting rid of his enemies, maybe it is already something trite, but this type of high-paced scenes is something that excites many viewers and that like me, we always want to see.

These films have several scenes, even some are remarkably long that are very entertaining in that sense of all against the protagonist, that's where perhaps we can notice lack of logic in the sequences, but we know how this type of action films, if not ask Rambo.

Blood

For an action film that introduces both hand to hand combat and shooting, it is good to introduce some blood, the cinema has changed the way of these shots, now they are in the head without contemplation and that impacts and at the same time gives dynamism to the film.

Source

Occasionally we notice that there are even scenes where there are interesting injuries and blows without becoming something exaggerated, as in a scene where our protagonist disfigures the face of an enemy with dumbbells and the scene comes out complete, something that undoubtedly makes you think of an ouch.

These films manage to have a fairly positive mix for the action lover, reaching a balance where anyone can watch the film, without having many moments of boredom, taking into account a general audience to achieve more subscribers to Netflix.

Commercial Film

These films are those that aim to attract more users, apart from the advertising, which I have seen in many places, it doesn't offer anything more than what we have seen, but at the end of the day it ends up being an entertaining option within Netflix for an action-packed evening.

Source

From my perspective, they are two very similar films, but when you start watching them you keep your attention until the end, because there is not such a deep plot, its strategy is to provide action dosed from the first minutes of the footage, something that ends up hooking the action lover.

Success or Failure?

I don't know how much is the budget for this cinematic universe, I assume that it is a lot of money because there are many scenes with very good special effects.

Source

In terms of budget and users on the steaming platform, there are not many clues, however, I assume they achieve their goals with both films.

Will this Universe continue?

I bet it will, one of the characters we see very little of is played by Idris Elba, a good actor and one I would like to see alongside Chris Hemsworth in a new film, I think many will feel the same, so the ending of the second film leaves us with that good feeling that the story will continue and Elba will be an important part of the sequel.

Source

Do I recommend it?

Yes, it's an entertaining film even though it doesn't have a very deep story, maybe that's the most negative factor of this franchise, however, we can enjoy a good pace and good action scenes accompanied by flashy special effects, so surely this is a film to consider for lovers of action, shooting and hand to hand combat, I recommend it openly.
