Previews: Teaser, Trailer

Spoilers for the previous film will be left unmarked. You Have Been Warned!


Extraction 2 includes examples of the following:

  • 10-Minute Retirement: Tyler spends several months in the hospital recovering from his injuries sustained in Dhaka before being given a quaint, isolated cabin in Austria by Nik to rest and retire. His "retirement" lasts only so long before he's recruited personally for another job, this time to rescue his ex-wife's sister from a Georgian prison.
  • Absurdly Youthful Mother: Borderline case with Ketevan, who was 19 when she conceived Sandro.
  • Action Survivor: Ketevan is not a fighter. But when told by Tyler to pick up a shovel and start swinging, she does a good job of covering Tyler's back until the sheer number of prisoners and guards overwhelm her.
  • Actor Allusion:
    • Tyler is seen watching Dancing with the Stars. Chris Hemsworth was a contestant on the Australian version during his soap opera days.
    • An out-of-shape hero played by Chris Hemsworth has a workout montage to get back in condition for more adventures... where have we seen this before? Bonus points for swinging an axe during the sequence.
    • A rather ironic one towards the end of the movie: During the final hand-to-hand altercation with the Big Bad, Chris Hemsworth reaches for a heavy hammer lying on the floor; but before he can get it, his hand gets hit with a heavy chain.
  • Actually Pretty Funny: Tyler's first words after being in a coma for months? "Fuck off." Nik immediately starts laughing when she hears him.
  • Advertising by Association: The teaser trailer lists the Russos as the directors of Avengers: Endgame and The Gray Man.
  • Agent Peacock: Yaz dresses in loud shirts in contrast to Tyler, who dresses practically, and Nik, who dresses in Simple, yet Opulent haute couture.
  • Ascended Extra: In the first movie, Yaz was a background character acting as Mission Control. In this film, he gets more characterization and joins in the extraction alongside Tyler and Nik, even getting his own setpieces.
  • Amicable Exes: Played with in the relationship between Tyler and his ex-wife Mia. They haven't seen each other for many years, and when they first meet again there's some obvious tension. However, it's mentioned that she specifically sought out Tyler for the mission to rescue her sister, meaning she clearly trusted him enough to pull it off. They also discuss what happened to their son as well as Tyler's decision to leave, and seem to reach some form of mutual closure. She's later shown visiting him in prison, implying they're back on positive terms.
  • Arrested for Heroism: After killing Zurab and rescuing Sandro from his clutches, Tyler and Nik are arrested by Austrian police and sent to prison. It's ambiguous if it's because of the disturbance Tyler and Nik caused in the airfield where the final battle took place or if they linked the two of them to the attack in Vienna. Or both.
  • Armor Is Useless: Averted; Tyler, Nik and Yaz as well as the Georgian gang are all equipped with varying levels of body armour making even the enemy mooks surprisingly difficult to kill. They frequently deal with mooks by deliberately targeting the gaps between armor pieces and non-armored limbs.
  • Back from the Dead: Nik confirms that Tyler was, in fact, clinically dead at the end of the first film, only to be revived and fight his way back in the intervening months.
  • Bash Brothers: More like Bash Siblings. As shown, Nik and Yaz are phenomenal together in the field as a team and with Tyler, taking down scores of Mooks before unfortunately Yaz dies after trying to get Sandro back when he runs for his uncle.
  • Being Evil Sucks: What Sandro realizes by the end after spending the first half wanting to become part of the Nagazi. Besides realizing he had condemned his own mother and likely sister to death by betraying their location, he later watches his uncle kill his grand-uncle for daring to speak out against his actions. Then said uncle holds him hostage during the final standoff. Needless to say, the psychological toll he ends up enduring because of his own choices is immense.
  • Big Brother Instinct: Zurab will do anything to keep his brother, Davit, safe and happy. He even went deaf after taking a beating to protect Davit. When Tyler kills Davit, Zurab ruthlessly pursues Tyler in revenge.
  • Black Comedy: After Tyler and Zurab engage in a brutal hand-to-hand fight that ends with the latter fatally injured and the former laying exhausted on the ground next to him, Zurab stubbornly states that he will never give up in his pursuit of vengeance, causing Tyler to lift his gun up and nonchalantly put a bullet through Zurab's head without saying anything or even looking up at him.
  • Bond Villain Stupidity: Zurab catches Tyler completely defenseless, dangling from the edge of a glass roof with his being weighed down by Nik's unconscious body. Rather than just shoot Tyler and be done with it, Zurab sees it fit to torture Tyler by first shooting him in the hand and then announce his intention to kill Nik to deprive Tyler of someone he cares about. Nik wakes up and shoots out the glass pane under Zurab, inconveniencing him long enough for Tyler and Nik to get back on solid ground.
  • Boom, Headshot!: How Zurab is finally killed, courtesy of Tyler. Several other Elite Mooks working for him also meet this fate.
  • Bottomless Magazines: Everyone gets a lot more ammo out of their weapons than they should. About the only time guns run empty is when it's dramatically appropriate.
  • Broken Pedestal: Sandro spends much of the movie idolizing his father and uncle, only to become progressively more shaken as he sees Zurab's violent actions first-hand. When Zurab holds Sandro hostage to keep Nik and Tyler from killing him, Sandro realizes he's been looking up to the wrong people and helps Nik and Tyler kill his uncle.
  • Brother–Sister Team: Nik and Yaz, notably the usually professional Nik loosens up in battle next to her brother including fist-bumping right before engaging the Nagazi.
  • Central Theme: Family. Tyler's mission this time involves saving his sister-in-law, Ketevan, and her children, showing in the process the number of sacrifices she had to make for the sake of protecting those she loved. Zurab similarly is motivated by the death of his brother, Davit, but both he and Davit contrast Ketevan's familial love by putting others at risk for their own agendas. Sandro's inner conflict is a result of his mother's side of the family being at odds with his father's, due to him loving both.
  • Conflicting Loyalty: Sandro is torn between wanting revenge for his father's death and guilt over endangering his mother and sister, whom he tries to get Zurab to spare.
  • Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: Outside of them both being incredibly powerful crime lords, Zurab differs from Asif in just about every way. While Asif was a Non-Action Big Bad hiding behind a legion of corrupt police officers and undisciplined gangsters, Zurab personally leads a small squad of highly-trained and heavily-armored killers. While Asif only put a bounty on Tyler to get the boy he was rescuing, Zurab is only interested in killing Tyler to avenge his brother. Asif was hardly a character outside of being an evil crime lord, while Zurab has a Freudian Excuse behind his rise to power. Finally, Asif was in conflict with a rival crime lord, while Zurab's organization undisputedly reigns supreme over Georgia.
    • Davit contrasts Saju. Both are the Number Two to powerful crime lords. But Saju was running the org while his boss was in prison, while Davit is the one in jail. Saju genuinely cared about Ovi, also wanted to protect his own family, and even worked with Tyler in the end. Davit goes down in the first act, before Tyler even leaves the prison, and only wanted to control his family.
  • Contrasting Sequel Setting:
    • From sunny Bangladesh (with a recurring motif of water) to Georgia (with a motif of snow).
    • The endings of each film take place on a bridge over a river that Tyler has to cross, vs an assault on the bad guys in a remote airfield, followed by a church.
  • The Corruptor: Zurab carries on where his brother left off in grooming Sandro into a criminal like himself, starting by turning Sandro against his mother by telling him that Ketevan had planned to kill his father from the start and only molding him further into a member of the Nagazi from there.
  • Creator Cameo: Sam Hargrave, the film's director, cameos as Zurab's gravedigger.
  • Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Nik's little brother Yaz clearly cares about Tyler as much as she does, constantly makes jokes, loves association football, and his Iconic Item is an incredibly tacky Valentino shirt. When it's time for the prison break, he dons tactical gear and turns out to be just as deadly and capable as his sister.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death:
    • During the gymnasium fight, one of Zurab's men gets shot and falls underneath a set of heavy weights. Tyler kicks the release mechanism, causing the weights to fall on the poor sod and turn his head into smushed fruit.
    • Tyler is especially deadly with gym equipment, it seems. One prisoner who tried dragging Ketevan away gets yanked from atop her and has his face literally smashed in with a dumbbell. His last moments of consciousness do not seem very pleasant.
  • Dark Action Girl: One of the Nagazi is a woman and she gives Yaz one hell of a fight. While it ends with her dead, she was able to wound Yaz.
  • Dark Is Not Evil: Nik's mercenaries (including herself, Tyler, and Yaz) wear all black as one would expect of modern PMCs but they're the good guys. Meanwhile, the Nagazi wear more traditionally heroic greens and khakis.
  • Dirty Coward: While Zurab can fight and has genuine combat training, he eventually shows just how spineless he truly is by strapping a bomb vest onto his nephew, connected to a dead man's trigger so that Tyler can't do anything to him without killing Sandro as well. Tyler even calls him out as a nothing but a coward.
  • Disc-One Final Boss: Davit is a dangerous criminal and the main reason why Ketevan and her children are in the prison with him, and as such he's also the reason Tyler has to rescue them. However, when he goes to confront Tyler, although initially having the element of surprise and putting up a decent fight, Tyler quickly manages to kill him. His brother Zurab then becomes the true Big Bad of the film as he seeks to avenge his brother's death.
  • Domestic Abuse: Davit not only keeps his entire family locked in prison with him (with Ketevan noting that their children haven't even seen the sun in days), he slaps and threatens Ketevan when she demands that she and their children be released from prison. During Tyler's rescue, Davit knocks out Ketevan with a pipe for daring to leave prison with his children with the intention of killing her after dealing with Tyler.
  • Dramatically Missing the Point: When Zurab criticizes his uncle's concerns over Zurab's wasteful quest for revenge against Tyler, Zurab points out how his father compared him unfavorably to the Cricket from Pinocchio. Anyone who is remotely familiar with the story would know that the Cricket was the titular character's conscience trying to steer him towards the right path.
  • Elite Mooks: Zurab has a personal task force made up of some of his best killers, all of whom are specially trained and can hold their own in a fight. However, while they're definitely skilled, they're nowhere near the level of Tyler's team, and as such all of them end up dead anyway.
  • Establishing Character Moment: Zurab is introduced murdering a Georgian government official with a gardening fork and having his personal security detail executed. This establishes him as someone who is not only very powerful, but is also extremely brutal in his methods. His lack of emotion and his plan also paint him as extremely repressed and focused in his anger.
    • In a re-Establishing Character Moment, after the very somber montage of Tyler being pulled from the river and painstakingly revived, though in a coma, when he finally wakes up, what's the first thing he says to Nik, who is responsible for his rescue? "Fuck off." It's so in-character for him that Nik actually laughs.
  • Even Evil Has Loved Ones:
    • Zurab has been looking out for his younger brother Davit since they were children and is beset by intense grief upon finding out he was killed. He spends a majority of the film hunting down Tyler in revenge.
    • The members of the Nagazi as a whole seem to treat each other like a family and are just as dedicated to avenging Davit.
    • Subverted regarding Zurab's relationship with his nephew. While he at first seems to genuinely treat Sandro like family with just a messed up series of values, it turns out Zurab values his own skin more, as he straps a bomb to Sandro with a dead man trigger to keep Tyler from killing him.
  • Evil Is One Big, Happy Family: The members of the Nagazi share in Zurab's grief over the death of Davit and are just as dedicated as Zurab is to avenging him. This doesn't exactly extend to blood relatives, however, considering Zurab killed his uncle for criticizing Davit's actions posthumously and was willing to strap a bomb to his own nephew with a dead man trigger to keep Tyler from killing him.
  • Fingore: A particularly gruesome example where Tyler breaks free from Davit's hold by ripping his entire hand in half lengthwise.
  • Foil: Sandro contrasts with Ovi from the previous movie. While both are the smart sons of imprisoned crime bosses, Ovi was allowed some freedom, while Sandro's family is forced to live in the prison with his dad. Ovi's dad apparently cared about his son, while Sandro's dad is an abusive, controlling jerk. Ovi wants nothing to do with his father's crimes, while Sandro idolizes his dad and uncle and starts picking apart the cover story immediately. Ovi had friends, while Sandro has no one but his immediate family. And perhaps most importantly, Ovi shot Gaspar to save Tyler (and himself), while Sandro can't shoot Tyler, even to save himself. A few seconds later, he actually helps save Nik.
  • Four Eyes, Zero Soul: Davit has been wearing glasses his whole life, and he's a brutal criminal who abuses his wife.
  • Freudian Excuse: Alcott's briefing to Tyler establishes that Davit and Zurab were stuck going from one nation in the midst of war to another. Eventually, they turned to crime to get by and got so good at it that they turned their operations into a full-on criminal empire. It's also later revealed that one of the reasons Zurab is so protective of Davit is because they had an abusive father who would beat Zurab whenever Davit got hurt. This is also why he has the hearing aid.
  • Handicapped Badass: Zurab is a dangerous fighter. He also wears a hearing aid due to his abusive father's constant beatings.
  • Heel–Face Turn: After realizing he doesn't actually have it in him to become a Nagazi, and getting held hostage by his uncle, Sandro turns against him and helps give Tyler and Nik an opening during the final standoff.
  • Hero Killer: Zurab fatally wounds Yaz during the raid on the Vienna safe house just as Yaz is about to escape.
  • Holding Hands: This film is Rated M for Manly, but it does have two very tender moments between Nik and Tyler. First, when he wakes up from his coma and she holds his hand. Second, after Yaz has been murdered by Zurab and she's cleaning his body, crying, Tyler comes in and gently holds her hand and leans up against her to comfort her. The latter is exceptionally sad and heartwarming at the same time, as he says nothing when he holds her.
  • Hope Spot: Despite the Retirony below, Yaz gets shot in a gunfight with one of Zurab's elite mooks. He almost makes it to the exfil chopper before Zurab personally dispatches him. Earlier, there was a police sniper on a helicopter who killed some Nagazi, unwittingly helping Tyler and the Khan siblings, before getting killed by Zurab with an RPG.
  • Horrible Judge of Character: Sandro buys into the Cult of Personality that Zurab and Davit have built around themselves, even tho he's seen how cruel Davit is to his mother, who he also cares about. And despite the violence surrounding him his whole life, it doesn't register to Sandro that his mother and sister would be put in danger if he gave away their location to his uncle, because he very mistakingly thought his uncle wouldn't actually harm them.
  • Ignored Epiphany: Tyler seems to get through to Sandro just how much Ketevan sacrificed to keep him and his sister safe, with Sandro looking shaken when he confesses to Tyler that he gave away their location to his uncle. However, when confronted about this by his mother, Sandro states that the Nagazi are his family. The epiphany eventually does stick by the time of the final battle, and he pulls a Heel–Face Turn to give Tyler and Nik an opening on Zurab.
  • Ignored Expert: Zurab's uncle repeatedly tries to dissuade Zurab from going on his quest of revenge against Tyler, pointing out just how much it's destabilizing the Nagazi. Zurab simply dismisses him the first time. The last time it happens, Zurab kills his uncle for pointing out how his merciless and wrathful behavior got Zurab's father and brother killed.
  • Immediate Sequel: The film begins straight where the first film ends, only revealing that when Nik and her men escaped to Mumbai, they went out of their way to pull Tyler out of the river and made sure he got the medical treatment he needed.
  • Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy: In full force in this film with Tyler able to take down attack helicopters with a machine gun while wide open and without a scratch.
  • Improbable Aiming Skills: While many characters in the film display an absurd degree of accuracy with firearms, the prize goes to a Vienna police sniper who is able to One-Hit Kill heavily armored Nagazi soldiers from a moving helicopter.
  • Improvised Weapon: The movie takes the famous rake kill from the first movie and ups the ante by using a pitchfork (not technically improvised, but close enough), a gym, a roof, and almost a hammer.
  • Incendiary Exponent: After Tyler blocks an incoming molotov cocktail with a riot shield, some of the flaming fuel causes his sleeve to catch fire. Instead of trying to put the flames out, he proceeds to whale on rioting prisoners and his punches eventually extinguish the flames.
  • Just a Flesh Wound: During the Vienna hospital assault, Tyler takes a bullet to the hand. In the real world, such an injury would require specialist reconstructive surgery and months, if not years, of rehabilitation. In the film, some self-applied stitches and bandages are enough to retain function within the same day.
  • Karma Houdini: Sandro gets away with betraying his own mother and sister to his uncle and indirectly cause Yaz to be killed by Zurab. Granted, he does try to save Nik and Tyler at the risk of his own life, and is clearly shaken by the experience. In every sense of the word.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: As mentioned under Domestic Abuse, Davit threatens Ketevan when she demands that she and their children be released from prison, to the point of slapping her at one point. During Tyler's rescue, when Davit knocks out Ketevan with a pipe for daring to leave prison with his children with the intention of killing her later, Tyler himself overpowers him and splits the same hand in half lengthwise before stabbing him in the neck. Ketevan recovers and uses the same pipe to knock him down as he bleeds out.
  • More Dakka:
    • During The Oner, the train the heroes are riding on is pursued by two armed helicopters, with Tyler managing to shoot one of them down by peppering it with gunfire from an M240 LMG. However, after failing to take out the second chopper with it, he later picks up an M134 Minigun and proceeds to shred the damn thing with bullets.
    • Throughout the film, Tyler and co have difficulty dealing with the enemies' armour, that's why for the final battle he brings a Milkor multiple grenade launcher to take out the opposition and their plane.
  • Noble Demon: Davit and Zurab's uncle: He may be a hardened criminal and The Consigliere to two ruthless killers, but he raised them after the death of their father, was always at their side, tries his best to convince his nephew not to pursue a vendetta that may very well lead to his demise, and seems to be genuinely regretful that Sandro betrayed his mother and Tyler's team, therefore potentially condemning her to death (not to mention that this action also made sure that the vendetta wouldn't be cut short).
  • The Oner: An even longer and more impressive example than the first film. The sequel has one that lasts a whopping twenty-one minutes, beginning when Tyler first extracts Ketevan and her children from their prison cell and proceeds to follow them through the prison to the outside, where it leads into a car chase, a foot pursuit through a factory, an action sequence onboard a train and finally ending when said train derails in the Georgian countryside.
  • One-Man Army: During the prison extraction, Tyler takes on rioting prisoners, armed guards, and Zurab's men all on his own with seemingly little effort. A brick to the back of the head only halts him for a moment before he gets back up in a bigger rage.
  • Only Sane Man: Davit and Zurab's uncle is the only member of the Nagazi to repeatedly point out to Zurab the folly of coming after Tyler, and how it will only get more of the Nagazi killed.
  • Overlord Jr.: It's implied by Davit early on that Sandro is being groomed into carrying on his father and uncle's criminal empire. Upon finding out that Tyler killed his father and that his mother really wanted to take him away from him, he betrays them and his sister to his uncle. However, he eventually realizes that he isn't cut out to be a cold-hearted criminal like his father and uncle.
  • Platonic Life-Partners: Nik and Tyler are as close as spouses but their love is entirely platonic.
  • Police Are Useless: With the notable exception of one helicopter sniper, the Vienna police fails miserably when trying to stop Zurab's elite Nagazi team from turning a section of the city into a war zone. Justified in that they're just cops dealing with heavily armed and armored SpecOps-level criminals with machineguns and anti-tank weapons, one of whom who could be mistaken for a Juggernaut from Call of Duty.
  • Red Herring: During the escape from Georgia, there are brief close-ups on Sandro's smartwatch, and a random gun one of the enemy mooks drops near Sandro. We know he's going to betray his mom, but he doesn't use either of those objects to do so. It's possible the shots were to show the impact of the violence on him.
  • Redshirt Army: Tyler's mercenary buddies outside of Nik and Yaz are just there to be killed off unceremoniously to the point you wonder why any of them sign up with their company. They were even downgraded to Faceless Mooks as well.
  • Retirony: Tyler makes the mistake of talking about what him, Nik, and Yaz are going to do after the mission. Zurab kills Yaz a few minutes later.
  • Revenge Before Reason:
    • Zurab pursues his revenge in spite of his uncle repeatedly telling him it is a bad idea that will only get their soldiers killed. Even after the battle in Vienna, when his uncle tells him that it got everybody coming after the Nagazi, Zurab is determined to continue.
    • Sandro gives away their location to Zurab, endangering his mother and sister because he can't let go of Tyler having killed Davit.
  • Revenge Myopia: Tyler wouldn't have killed Davit if Davit hadn't tried to kill him and Ketevan during their escape from prison. Zurab refuses to acknowledge this when going after Tyler in revenge.
  • Roaring Rampage of Rescue: In the first half of the movie, Tyler and his team blast their way through rioting prisoners and Nagazi mercenaries in order to extricate Ketevan and her children from the Nagazi's clutches. Tyler's final rampage at the climax is also motivated partly by a desire to retrive Sandro from Zurab.
  • Roaring Rampage of Revenge: The climax of the film comes when Tyler goes after Zurab and his men as revenge for the death of Yaz.
  • Scenery Porn: Alcott at times seems less interested in trying to recruit Tyler and more in being enraptured by how gorgeous Austria is.
  • Sequel Hook: The film ends with Tyler and Nik being brought out of prison by Alcott and given an offer to join the mysterious organisation he works for.
  • Shoo Out the Clowns: Yaz, the Plucky Comic Relief, is fatally wounded by Zurab during the tail end of the escape from Vienna, showing just how personal a threat Zurab is.
  • Sorting Algorithm of Evil: The Nagazi are much more heavily armed and tactical compared to Asif's assortment of gangsters and corrupt police officers from the first movie. While Asif had to rely on sheer numbers to get results, just a small unit of vengeful Nagazi manage to kill a lot of Tyler's fellow mercenaries. Several of them even manage to put up a fight against Tyler in close quarters compared to the mooks that Tyler killed by the dozens in the first movie.
  • Steel Eardrums: Averted. Tyler is briefly deafened and stunned when a flashbang goes off on top of him. Then again, he and everyone near him ought to be deaf from the sheer amount of gunfire and explosions they're subjected to, so it's mostly played straight.
  • Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: While Tyler and Nik manage to save Ketevan and her children from the Nagazi, they are ultimately imprisoned for being mercenaries that have caused tons of property damage. It's only thanks to Alcott that they are able to get out of prison early.
  • Too Dumb to Live: The inmates during the prison riot who can clearly see Tyler slaughtering large numbers of their peers single-handed and still think it is a good idea to attack him. Those that do don't live long to regret it.
  • Training Montage: Once Tyler accepts the job to extract Ketevan and her children, he's shown working out to regain as much function as possible before heading out.
  • Tranquil Fury: Zurab doesn't raise his voice when he's angry. He just kills people.
  • Undying Loyalty: Members of the Nagazi are fanatically loyal to its leaders Zurab and Davit, who have established a cult of personality around themselves and their organisation. As such, when Davit is killed by Tyler during the prison riot, Zurab's top enforcers are just as enraged over the loss as their boss is, and are fully willing to lay down their lives to help Zurab get his revenge.
    • Also a non-villainous version between Nik and Tyler. Both are utterly devoted to protecting each other and Tyler even refuses his handler's offer at first since he states he will not work for him unless Nik is with him. Lo and behold, who steps out of the car just after he says it?
  • Ungrateful Bastard: Zurab kills a Georgian government official for approving a 10-year extension to Davit's prison sentence, despite the official being responsible for preventing Davit's extradition to the USA for killing a DEA agent, arranging for Davit's family to live with him in the prison and generally being responsible for things not being much worse for Davit.
    • Sandro. Tyler and his team go through hell getting him, his mother, and his sister out, and what does he do? Betray them immediately to his uncle the first chance he gets, which indreictly get Yaz killed. And what's more is that while he later regrets it, he still ends up a Karma Houdini.
  • Unresolved Sexual Tension: Oodles between Nik and Tyler, but the relationship itself stays platonic.
    Nik: Believe it or not, it's really difficult to let someone you care about die.
  • Walking Armory: Before going out to confront Zurab for the last time, Tyler pulls out guns, knives, and a grenade launcher and puts ammunition into every possible spot on his plate carrier and belt.
  • Who Murdered the Asshole: Zurab and the Nagazi have to contend with the problem that Davit made so many enemies that they have no idea which of them would go through all the trouble of sending a top tier elite mercenary team to kill him in prison and take his family. If Sandro hadn't called to tell him who did it and where they were headed they probably would have had a hard time finding out who did it.
  • Would Hurt a Child: When push finally comes to shove, Zurab puts a bomb vest on his nephew and connects it to a dead man's trigger, meaning he has absolutely no issue with the kid being blown up so long as it helps keep him alive.
  • You Killed My Father: The main reason why Sandro gives away their location to Zurab. Once his uncle has utterly broken the pedestal Sandro had Zurab and Davit on, Sandro sides with Tyler.
