Chris Hemsworth is a rapidly growing star in action cinema after staring in 12 Strong and this year, Extraction. He plays Tyler Rake, an alcoholic mercenary with a death wish who is tasked with rescuing a drug lord's kidnapped son.

In a cinematically beautiful 12 minute one-shot sequence, Rake takes on the corrupt police force while protecting the kidnapped child, Ovi. Rake uses his pistol and knife to carve his way through the SWAT officers one after another as he tries to get Ovi to safety through a bustling apartment block. The scene is shot to look like one take and follows every knife slash and gunshot as Rake rushes to safety.

The brutal and quick killing on the move makes this one of the best action sequences of 2020. The fight coordination and Hemsworth's brute strength is enough to cement him as a modern action hero and with Extraction 2 already in the works at Netflix, fans are sure to see more of Tyler Rake.

If you have clicked on here, get ready to be bored. I'm just a 20 year old white male who has a (probably) unhealthy obsession with pop culture Film and TV. Handy in a trivia game but not much else. My parents were never murdered, I'm not avenging my dead wife. Just plain, old sat at a computer with a head full of knowledge I mostly don't use I was born and raised in the Black Country near Birmingham, England however am now living in Manchester, England after I moved here two years ago. I currently attend the University of Salford, studying Broadcast Journalism. That's it really. Told you there was nothing special. If you're really that desperate for something to do, follow me on socials. Yes, I do like that ego boost.
