After watching "The Raid", BD-RMVB's version, I heard very early that this film was praised by European and American media as the strongest action movie in 10 years at the Toronto Film Festival in 2011, and it also won the Best Midnight Madness audience vote. In the film award, imdb, the world's largest film website, also gave a high score of 8.4 or more. After all, the film is an Indonesian version. Now it is said that the Americans quickly bought the copyright and asked the original production team and team to remake the Hollywood version. Americans are always fighting at the forefront of the world's film trends. If you shoot well, I will buy it and ask you to shoot it again. Just like the "Infernal Affairs" in our Hong Kong film industry, the Americans also remade "The Departed". People's large-scale production represents the advanced nature of the needs of the majority of movie fans, the advanced nature of the application of film technology, and the advanced nature of box office revenue, oh ~ 嘢.

Talk about the feelings: The
fighting scene is really hot
, so old men like me can see that the blood is swollen, the blood is boiling, the hands are hot and itchy, and I have an hour of insomnia before going to bed at night. The first half of the shootout, the second half of the fistfight, the professional term for the exciting part of the fight is called "CQC", the full name of Close Quarters Combat. These fights have given us a refreshing feeling to those who have watched Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, Jet Li, Zhao Wenzhuo, Donnie Yen and other Chinese martial arts. Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung are also slightly humorous when fighting, such as "Drunken Fist" and "Plan A" series; Jet Li and Zhao Wenzhuo were born in martial arts, and they are agile and handsome, such as "Zhongnanhai Bodyguard", "Once Upon a Time" Series; Donnie Yen has recently been the standard-bearer to carry the banner of stardom. In addition to fighting with ease and calmness, his box office appeal is also amazing, such as the series "Slaying the Wolf" and "Ip Man". The melee combat in this movie is fast, with one move and one style from our traditional martial arts, with both offense and defense, huhu, hey, and different routines. CQC must KO the opponent as soon as possible in a limited space and time.

The star is really handsome
The star is called Iko Uwais. He looks like a handsome young man, a bit like Orlando Bloom, a handsome elf in "The Lord of the Rings". In the close combat in the corridor on the 6th floor of the film, he killed ten people. Agility in one go. It is said that he began to practice martial arts at the age of 10 and liked martial arts. He was originally a taxi driver, and the two began to cooperate through communication due to a chance encounter with director Gareth Evans. This film is the second film they collaborated on. Iko Uwais has already risen as an Indonesian star, and it is said that the future is limitless. There is no heroine in this film, there are two supporting actresses, one is the pregnant wife of the hero of the film, the other is the wife of the landlord, and the other is a female patient. I don't know if the American version came out, how many people this handsome guy would be fascinated to death.

The supporting roles are also ruthless. It is
rare to see the supporting roles in the film fight so ruthlessly. The character in the film is called "Mad Dog". He is definitely not as handsome as the protagonist Xiaobai, but the kung fu in his hands and feet is really good. In this situation, he gave up the chance to kill with one shot, and had to fight the sheriff one-on-one, beat the sheriff to the point where he couldn't move, and then twisted his neck KO, which set off a small climax in the film. This climax can be regarded as a one-on-one close. A classic in combat. The climax of the film is also the ultimate fight between the mad dog and the two brothers. He voluntarily gave up the one-on-one fight, and asked himself to use one against two to fully enjoy the thrill of punching and kicking. During the overall ultimate fight Not at a disadvantage, the three parties came and went, knocked, smashed, punched and kicked, and in the end, the evil did not suppress the righteous, and the younger brother used a certain material to kill the "mad dog". So it seems that this person is the real king of fighting in this fighting-oriented fighting film.

The plot is cliché, but I don’t need to go into
it. I will describe it in Diaosi as follows: My brother’s police found his younger brother who had been missing for many years (has already entered the underworld), the older brother received a task and entered the underworld devil’s den to bring the younger brother out safely. Brother, the younger brother was found hanged and beaten by the boss, and the younger brother teamed up to kill the BOSS. Di sent him to the gate of the iron gate. The brothers went their separate ways, black and white, and the music sounded and the film ended. It reminds me a bit of a certain passage in "Infernal Affairs", maybe it is also preparing for the sequel.

Finally, a friendly reminder: There are many violent and bloody scenes in this film, please do not bring children and women to watch, please protect women and children, and men can be excited.

The Raid: Redemption quotes

  • Jaka: [talking to his S.W.A.T. team] Okay, listen up. Our target is Tama Riyadi. I'm sure most of you know who I'm talking about. This man has become something of a legend in the underworld. Pushers, gangs, killers, they all respect him like a god. For the past 10 years his building has been a no-go zone for police. I don't care how big he is or who is behind him, he must be stopped. That enterprising fuck's been renting out rooms like it's an apartment, to any low-life piece of shit looking to keep his head down. Our mission is simple: we go in, and we take him out!

  • Rama: They'll come here. They'll tear this place to the ground.

    Andi: We'll be long gone before they get here.

    Rama: Then why do you stay?

    Andi: For the same reason you stayed in that uniform - it just fits.
