Twenty elite SWAT members head into an apartment building with a crime lord as their target. The apartment is haven for criminals were scrum can rent a room, no questions asked. The SWAT members move floor to floor to get to the top and capture the mastermind. Well things do go smoothly and a bloodbath wall happen.
The Raid is a cerebral encounter. Pulse-pounding music, dazzling fight scenes and characters that appropriately fit their role. The story is bland, but the movie is meant to be watched as a thrill ride. The fight scenes are brutal, fun and brilliant all at the same time. The Raid is the action of the year, one of the best in ten years even.
