The action is really sold well too, notice that Nik isn't superhuman, she gets injured and thrown around, but she's nimble and knows CQC and the weak points of enemies and that's how she wins battles.

With the character right...? ....Hahahaa...

No … with her 😊

😂😂😂😂👍🏻🇦🇺

Pero una cobarde porque nunca mata a una Mujer Asesina

Agreed, even down to where she stabbed, hitting the big weak points was so cool and grounded. Plus she took some punishment as well which is even more realistic.Wish we had a prequel on her background

I love watching her do it, it’s fun and entertaining but the reality is, she could never pull any of this off. None of it.

Extraction 2 Nik straight up overpowers and kills 3 georgian guys. Realistic, yeah

@@user-gl2nw4sx1m You posted 5 times, I agree with you but only once :)

You found that to be realistic?

@@glennwatson3313at least it's better than most action movies, and what do you even expect from an action movie?

@@clanker.4 I expect entertainment.

as I said earlier she's like to handle a moray eel==slippery, agile and equipped with really sharp teeth.

Exactly that. She sells it very, very well. And this is ultimately the key to maintaining suspension of disbelief. Compare this to that garbage film "The 355", the all-female action thing. Not one of them sold the role to us; you could so easily see the male stunt actors throwing themselves because Jessica Chastain etc just could not make it look even remotely realistic.

She's not over powering them in strength but rather using her skills in combat

Her brother died because they all failed to keep an eye on that stupid fucking kid

That hardcore grunting while she's fighting in that tiny train cab is awesome. Golshifteh is an incredible actress.

You still see a lot of people saying that this is unrealistic and woke in the comments. Let's just agree that there are people we should hate on both sides of this woke agenda debate

The whole movie plot only happens in the movie. Or do you think any real male on this planet can do what Tyler does? What John Wick does? What the Punisher, James Bond or all the Jason Bournes do? That's just an over-the-top fantasy. Tell me, how many action films with a one-man-army protagonist did you enjoy in your lifetime? For how many did you write about the realism on the internet? I have the feeling that there might be different standards to what kind of unrealistic behaviour a male actor is allowed than what a female actor is allowed. What do you think?

First of all: You mixed up the numbers. Second: do you also complain about the realism of what Tyler is doing all the time? Or do you actually think there is a single human male on this planet who can do what he does, enemy after enemy, injury after injury?

Interesting. But you do not have a critique on what our male protagonist endures? This one man army? How many falls he takes, how many injuries? How many enemies he takes on? That doesn't bother you? He is fighting multiple opponents at once in several scenes. How realistic is that? Ask a bouncer or corrections officer what he thinks about taking on multiple opponents at the same time, again and again. Or the way they just clear builing after building alone in some movies. There is a nice interview with Kyle Morgan, a Delta Force Operative who helped out when the Indian Hotel got stormed by Terrorists in the 2015 Bamako hotel attack. Compare the cautious approach by this man, a member of one of the best trained groups at close quarter combat with what you see regulary in movies. How he is being held up by some terrorists holding a staircase with some AKs and Grenades. Believe me, what Nik Khan is doing is no less realistic than whats going on in the movie at all times by the male actors. They survive incredible injuries, they walk of pain, they ignore damaged tissues and torn muscles just to walk, run and shoot again in the next scene.

I wasn't talking about the falls. A tiny unathletic woman would stand absolutely no chance in those situations the Hollywood writers put modern day girl bosses in almost every movie. Perhaps Alias started the trend 20 years ago, I don't know, but these days it is just a silly/cringeworthy trope.

@@wreckingrich3788 And that my friend, is the double standard here. No thought about the absolutely unbelievable stuff the males pull of, film after film. But a "women" who fires a rocket launcher or an RPG and has some fights with male soldiers. No, that is too much for you? Really? Because women can't fight? And with women, you mean all of them, categorically. Question: can you fight? Shoot? Rifles, Sub machine Guns, Pistols? Do you know how to grapple, kick and punch? How to fly a helicopter? Handle explosives? In how many fights against multiple opponents have you been? Do you think it is even somenwhat realistic what Tyler pulls of?

The reality of hand to hand combat is even the best female has no chance against a mediocre man regardless of size. And then you in movies the a tiny girl boss beats up men double her size by the dozen... No double standard here.

@@wreckingrich3788 Tell me you have no fight experience without telling me you're not having fight experience... Newsflash: not every soldier trains in grappling. And if you have someone trained in grappling, they can do surprising things to people who are untrained. And yes, that can mitigate a lot of body differences. Same goes when weapons are involved, especially knives. We can go on to firearms, were there is not really a practical difference in shooting accuracy between the sexes. But yes, if you talk about striking, there is noticable difference in upper body strength. Comes also to hand in sword fighting. I would consider myself a medium skilled fencer with some medals in my cupboard and can probably beat lots of the female longsword fencers. However, I would never make a statement that I can beat EVERY one of them, as I know for a fact that there are incredibly well trained women out there, who are far more athletic compared to me. Same goes to Jiu Jitsu and graplling. I have been folded up by opponents far below my weight class, men and women. In both cases they had a much higher level of skill and training than me. That is a humbling experience. What you are doing is allowing the hero of the film to be so far above human standards without critique, which seems completely fine to you. But in your world view there is no room for even a single highly skilled women. Is that right?
