The first fourth of the movie was made up of intesnly suspenseful scenes where not much happens, the rigid calm before the storm breaks.

I found it surprising how few lines of dialogue there were in the film but ultimately, this film was not about dialogue. With help from a member of Tama’s gang that Rama knows from his past, Rama battles his way through the building to try and complete their mission and survive. As team members are picked off and their numbers dwindle, Rama finds himself stepping into the leadership role of a very small group. The team, led by Sergeant Jaka (Joe Taslim) under the guidance of Lieutenant Wahyu (Pierre Gruno), encounters complications as was bound to happen and they suddenly find themselves stuck in a building full of psychopaths trying to kill them.

The events of this film follow a police task force that raids the building, focusing mainly on a man named Rama (Iko Uwais) who has a pregnant wife waiting for him. Wanted by rival gangs and the police alike, Tama’s building is prepared for the constant threat of a raid. The building is owned by the notorious crime lord Tama Riyadi (Ray Sahetapy) where he allows his hordes of murderous mobsters to live. The entire film, save the first five minutes, are on the grounds of the same apartment building. The day has come for that unfortunate absence to be changed and the catalyst for that change was a film called The Raid Redemption.

I have reviewed funny, serious, old and new movies but the other day I realized that this blog is oddly absent of any movie involving martial arts. At this point in time, I have gotten the chance to watch and review almost every type of movie there was.
