The Raid
An not a fan of Asian films normally due to the way the action is that fast and unbelievable that the viewer gets lost in what’s happening I mean a man running up a wall the doing a back flip isn't something you tend to see in your average street brawl but I couldn't help like "The Raid".
The story is set in a tower block that's in one of the most deprived areas of Jakarta that is being run by a criminal who has control of the tower block and is virtually untouchable in the criminal underworld, the police decide that the only way to bring him down is for them to take the tower block so they send in an elite swat squad but things soon take a turn for the worse for the police as every resident in the tower turns against them in an all-out bloody war that is leaves the viewer cringing at time, this certainly isn't a movie for the squeamish as the action use a whole host if weapons from guns, knives, axes and pretty much anything they can lay their hands on.
As the action rages and the blood sprays everywhere the plot takes an unexpected twist that leaves you wondering who to trust in this edge of the seat no holds barred epic.
