Review of Extinction (2018) by Jluis_001 — 27 Jul 2018

I have realized or rather have understood that Netflix has a terrible quality control. I understand perfectly they need to have constantly new content and this I know perfectly because I have found that Netflix clients, many of their clients just want more and more and more and more, and Netflix is to blame because of that, because they educate them terribly with binge-watching and for that reason Netflix has evidently become the trash can of big studios that produced these films but they realized they would be a failure at the box office and therefore now they have someone to sell the rights and in addition avoiding the step of producing them on DVD and Blu-Ray and certainly any gain is better than a loss.

Extinction only reinforces what I think. This poor science fiction film produced by Universal with just 20 minutes into it shows that it would have been a huge failure at the box office and while I applaud they have a good Latino actor like Michael Peña who's not a gardener or a gang member in the story, in general terms the film is really bad. Lizzy Caplan is also involved but that's only anecdotal more than functional because nobody stands out a bit.

Extinction and the recent ''How it Ends'' go practically hand in hand. The quality is poor and the entertainment scarce and although it's another option for a catalog that unfortunately grows rapidly without quality, to me it's not a good option and I don't recommend it and I really hope Netflix will begin to take action on the matter because I think they can increase their catalog with higher quality films and have a solid offer for different viewers.

It's true that bad films sell, just watch the films they produce with Adam Sandlers, which are among their biggest hits, but I feel Netflix can do better. I really believe they can be better.
