The Raid: Redemption (Indonesia, 2011)

Deep in the heart of Jakarta's slums lies an impenetrable derelict apartment building which became a safe house for the cities most dangerous murderers, killers and gangsters. The rundown apartment block has been considered untouchable by rivals of the notorious crime lord Tama Riyadi and even the police. It all changes when an elite team is tasked with raiding the building in order to take down Tama once and for all.

From Indonesia, this beast of an action film is born and set loose to wreak havoc across the world. The story is next to non-existent, but things like character development and plot twists are very trivial matters when compared to the all-out war and countless shootout scenes that The Raid is filled with. 

Genre: Action/Crime
