The Raid: Redemption (2011)
A S.W.A.T. team is dispatched to take down a locally entrenched crime boss. This is an Indonesian film and I viewed the dubbed version (yeah the dub was pretty lame). Don't pick this one up if you want a story or character development, or anything with more than 3 syllables. Just take your brain out and get ready for the adrenaline. This has some of the most insane and violent fight choreography I have ever seen.. its like a cross between Oldboy (2003) and I Saw the Devil (2010) .. if you are a fan of either of those films you will probably enjoy this one, granted both of those 2 movies have more meat on their story bone than this one, the action sequences make The Raid stand out as a milestone for insanely violent films. If you like balls out fighting and killing this delivers in a way Hollyweird studios only have wet dreams about. This one is all meat.. served bloody on a sharp stick!
