If you’re into old kung fu-style movies you’ll especially be pleased. When someone is taken out, it’s ultra-realistic writer and director Gareth Evans clearly wanted to make sure that your jaw would hit the floor on multiple occasions, and succeeded magnificently in this objective. It has crazy gun fights, knife fights, and fist fights, all of which are stunningly brutal. The Raid: Redemption is a movie built for multiple types of action movie fan. Now the cops are no longer fighting to complete their mission, but to escape the building alive.

The raid is supposed to go smoothly, but others have tried before and failed, and when word gets out that the squad is there, pure anarchy ensues. The movie consists of a simple premise: a team of elite cops sets off to an old run down 30-story apartment building to take out a deadly drug lord who runs the building with his men, while also allowing others to rent out rooms, usually to the city’s most dangerous criminals. Every once in a while one comes along that reminds us of that old school high-paced action we love so very much, and one such movie is The Raid: Redemption. They just don’t make action movies like they used to…or so it sometimes seems.
