The Raid: Redemption

Philippines

Extremely violent action film about a police raid on a twenty storey building that goes wrong from the get-go. Fast-paced with elaborately worked out choreography...some of the hand-to-hand fight sequences were spectacular and evidenced care and preparation, great editing. The addition of some softer moments an hour in seemed pro forma but even this thread found its way into the main story line and contributed to an amazing final fight.

For those with a taste for this sort of thing...this was a winner.
