A rookie member of an elite team of commandos, Rama (Iko Uwais) is instructed to hang back while his comrades-in-arms go ahead with their mission to take down a brutal crime lord called Tama (Ray Sahetapy). However, the team's cover is blown, and Tama offers sanctuary to every criminal in his high-rise apartment block in exchange for the cops' heads. Now Rama must take command and lead his remaining team on an ultraviolent charge through the building to complete -- and survive -- the mission.

Shadow and Act

[Redemption] is a relentless, bloody, brutal action movie, with successive scene after scene of balls-to-the-wall-style choreographed violence.

Hollywood is particularly unsuited to producing sensation cinema these days.

My only complaint about The Raid is that it ended.

There’s something a bit poetic and inevitable about the moralizing division, and it cuts even deeper with a brother on each side of the camera’s axis.

The AU Review

Immensely fresh in that it truly feels like a film that will harm you at any given moment.

Rated: 4/5

Elements of Madness

Not only do the two actors make an indelible impression with their physical prowess, Evans’s direction and storytelling draws us in further so that each moment of character desperation holds audiences in a steel grip.

The Raid is definitely jam-packed with non-stop and gory action. The fight choreography is incredible (if not, ridiculous at times). My biggest beef with this film was one elongated fight scene in the second half of the movie which was really bordering on elite ridiculousness, given the condition of the combatants after many violent bouts earlier in the film. Apart from that beef, good fun... you certainly won't come away bored!

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
