Extracted (2012)

I'm a professional screenwriter and director, and I can tell you how monumentally difficult it is to get a first feature film off the ground and into production... let alone to make it any good.With Extracted, Nir Paniry has done an absolutely stellar job.He has managed to tell a big story that could easily have cost millions of dollars on a modest budget. There's great credit due to the script for that. The film itself is compelling, well cast and acted, emotionally involving and commercially appealing.This deserves a huge amount of credit to Paniry together with his cast, crew and producers. I hope they're as proud of this as I was impressed by it.To pick up on a minor flaw, I agree with a couple of other reviews that have pointed out that the plot comes a touch unstuck in the final denouement when all the details are revealed. But I'll more than forgive it this for its otherwise great strengths and commendable execution.If you haven't seen Extracted and you enjoy sci-fi, then you must give it your time.

Especially how IMDb rate it around 6, whereas it seems I'm not the only one to rate it 9+. Even more impressive, considering my jaded palette, but if I say that it manages to create fascinating sci-fi with a laptop computer and sticky tape, that is a compliment, because much as I love Arnold (and one more coming up it seems), thought provoking sci-fi/drama/thriller material is thin on the ground.Flawed characters caught in a web of bad decisions and dire consequences simply highlight the nuggets of humanity they reveal, and given that there's not one recognisable name (to me at least), the actors/director did a stand up job.The characters make sense, their decisions make sense, even their bad ones, and only the premise is best left only lightly examined. Really it is there only as a pretext for a web that could have been woven around an entirely non-sci-fi concept, and been delivered just as well.That is not a criticism, but a compliment.Excellent viewing, give it a shot.

I don't know how to say exactly in English but it's definitely a very good film to watch. All the film is very nice to watch. I still have something to confuse and think about because I quite not understand the end but a good film. I gave it 10!And still don't understand how this film is underrated.It makes me have to watch all over the film from the beginning to the end. No action scene but still really catching.

It annoys me this film isn't well known or at least recognised. Just because it's not made of CGI and big actors, people find it easy to judge this film as an amateur work. However it has better writing, directing and heart than many other blockbusters out there. Maybe it's because my favourite film is "Moon" that I have a soft spot for indies, but I implore you to watch this film. Domanic Bogart is brilliant and so is Sasha Roiz and I really invested in their characters.I see a lot of reviewers are also frustrated with it's IMDb score. It should at least be 7.6.
