Sometimes you hear buzz about a movie & feel skeptical, but ‘The Raid’ is the real deal. You hardly have time to breathe between fight scenes, it’s like you feel every single blow onscreen hurts as hell & it’ll make you shake your fists and shout at the screen (or at least I did).
It’s humbling that it took Welsh-born director Gareth Evans to show the world the art of Indonesian kick-ass with ‘The Raid’, and may many more people get to watch it when it finally releases in theaters.
