Where Cuaron’s style reflects a character’s perspective, Evans’s style anticipates a characters intent. He makes every fight a plot point, communicating through action the kind of relationships and character history other films explain in dialogue.Įvans shoots in long, unbroken takes, not unlike Alfonso Cuaron ( Gravity, Children of Men). Director Gareth Evans builds his film using old-fashioned suspense techniques, and his martial arts scenes – using the Indonesian style Silat – are more than just impressive choreographic sequences. There are a range of decisions that make the fight scenes some of the most effective ever put to screen. He’s merely additional leverage in the business relationship between the gangs and Jakarta’s police. Rama begins discovering that being an undercover officer doesn’t mean he’s a wrench in the gangster’s works. Needless to say, few things go as planned.
Rama is convinced to go undercover, get arrested, and befriend the incarcerated son of a Japanese gangster who owns half of the capital Jakarta. It is an incredible action movie, but it’s an even better gangster thriller. The second Raid follows the first movie’s hero, Rama (Iko Uwais).
It was brimming with enough gunplay, explosions, and martial arts to put it alongside Raiders of the Lost Ark and Die Hard as one of the best action movies ever filmed. The first Raid followed an Indonesian SWAT team’s assault on a drug lord’s tenement building. The two build on each other, but they’re each their own animal. It’s OK if you haven’t seen the first – it’s like seeing the second Godfather without seeing the first.
Film the raid 2 full movie#
It’s an Indonesian movie by a Welsh director, sequel to 2011 surprise hit The Raid: Redemption. If Stanley Kubrick were to have directed a martial arts movie, you might get something like The Raid 2.
