Without question THE RAID: REDEMPTION will be on my Top Films of 2012, this film is phenomenal and easily one of the best action films of the past few years.
The film is almost upon us, and a new behind the scenes video has been released. You can see how the fight scenes came together, and what it takes to get things as intense as they are in this film! Well worth a watch, everyone involved is extremely talented and they certainly know their stuff!
Don’t forgot to scope out Eric’s review here and the Blood, Bullets and Broads podcast here for a chat with writer/director Gareth Evans!
As a rookie member of an elite special-forces team, Rama (Iko Uwais) is instructed to hang back during a covert mission involving the extraction of a brutal crime lord from a rundown fifteen-story apartment block. But when a spotter blows their cover, boss Tama (Ray Sahetaphy) offers lifelong sanctuary to every killer, rapist and thief in the building in exchange for their heads. Now Rama must stand in for the team’s fallen leader (Joe Taslim) and use every iota of his fighting strength – winding through every floor and every room to complete the mission and escape with his life.
The film stars Iko Uwais, Joe Taslim, Doni Alamsyah, Yayan Ruhian, Pierre Gruno, Ray Sahetapy and Tegar Satrya. It is out tomorrow in a limited release.
