Reviews
Extortion has garnered a mixed reception from critics and audiences alike. While some praised the film for its gripping storyline and intense performances, others criticized its predictable plot and lack of originality. Variety described the movie as 'a taut, back-to-basics thriller that delivers big jolts without resorting to cheap gimmicks,' highlighting the tense atmosphere created by the tropical setting. On the other hand, The Hollywood Reporter felt that the film 'fails to offer anything new to the survival thriller genre, relying too heavily on clichรฉs and contrived situations.' Despite the diverse opinions, the movie holds a respectable 6.2/10 rating on IMDb, indicating a moderate level of audience satisfaction.
