Extraction II (2023)
4/10
SPOILER ALERT: Ex-wife asks her crippled ex-husband to extract her sister...

SPOILER ALERT: "Ex-wife asks her crippled ex-husband to extract her sister because he is the only high ranking Australian actor to be able to do the job"... This only should be a no-no and a go-back-to-square-one-to-come-up-with-a-better-plot.

Very melodramatic beginning, obvious "Will you take the job?" moment - of course he will... -, Rocky-gets-ready-to-fight rehab (The Eye of the Tiger would have been way too obvious) and then... Action!

When the car chase started in the first movie with its intricated camera works and edge-of-the-seat action, this reviewer was "waoh-ed", but with the sequel, the response was just an annoyed "again?" until it transformed into a "ouch, very lame green screen effects" sigh.

In a caseshell: First Extraction yes, melodramatic ending; Second Extraction, no, even without the melodramatic beginning.
