The Raid
Deep in the heart of Jakarta's slums lies an impenetrable safe house for the world's most dangerous killers and gangsters. Until now, the run-down apartment block has been considered untouchable to even the bravest of police. Cloaked under the cover of pre-dawn darkness and silence, an elite swat team is tasked with raiding the safe house in order to take down the notorious drug lord that runs it.

60 of 163 · most liked firstit is so good, in fact, that it is an entire movie genre in and of itself The Raid: a Die Hard movie Dredd: also a Die Hard movie think of an action movie that involved fighting your way up or down a building, that's a Die Hard movie and all of them are great
unlabelledView post →Hammer Girl from the Raid 2 is still one of the best villains in an action movie ever, like she just decided one day killing people with hammers was gonna be her thing.
unlabelledView post →Rewatched The Raid, which is just one preposterously good horror-movie-violent shootout or fight scene after another for the length of an entire film. A top 5 action movie for me I think.
unlabelledView post →Yesterday I watched The Raid and Dredd, taking "Die Hard is a Christmas movie" to its logical endpoint, "all claustrophobic action movies set in big tall buildings are Christmas movies"
unlabelledView post →THE RAID was released 14 years ago this week. One of the great martial arts films this century and the film which showcased the talents of filmmaker Gareth Evans, the making of story is pretty massive… 1/29
unlabelledView post →All I want from the Blade movie is Mahershala Ali to kill vampires for 90 minutes. Just have him walk into a building with vampires and pull a "The Raid" for an hour and a half.
unlabelledView post →House to myself tonight. Recommendations for an action film? Something in the Raid/Wick neighborhood?
unlabelledView post →Seeing in the new year watching The Raid 2. God, I do enjoy a movie where two men are in love but can only express it through punching.
unlabelledView post →Variety film critic says the director of Havoc, The Raid, and Raid 2, "might be better suited to specializing in the second unit or action sequences on a major franchise." man, stfu.
unlabelledView post →Okay okay, hear me out: A sequel to THE RAID set in this building The movie is just two hours of Iko Uwais's character attempting to leave the building along with everyone else after the football match is over
unlabelledView post →tomorrow on Netflix: a new movie from the lunatic who directed The Raid and Raid 2.
unlabelledView post →THE RAID was released 15 years ago today. One of the great martial arts films this century and the film which showcased the talents of filmmaker Gareth Evans, the making of story is pretty massive… 1/29
unlabelledView post →Why yes I WILL watch a new action movie from the dude what directed The Raid movies starring Tom Hardy youtu.be/HAQfDRvrU0s?...
unlabelledView post →Tonight's film The Raid 2 (2014)
unlabelledView post →“Gareth Evans didn’t innovate w/ ‘Havoc!’ He should be pushing action forward like he did with ‘The Raid!’” My brother in Christ, what? Why are we holding Evans to a standard we hold no other action filmmaker to? What happened to liking a filmmaker’s style (good & bad) & enjoying a film for that?
unlabelledView post →Dudes, I thought THE RAID: REDEMPTION was brutal, but this new Adrien Brody movie is THE BRUTALIST.
unlabelledView post →I want to see a movie about a gnome detective that’s like Se7en but with a gnome, and then I want to see a movie about an elf mage commando who has to do the The Raid thing
unlabelledView post →HALF is a daywalker vampire action movie with the same fight choreographer from THE RAID movies. 96 minutes of gory mayhem. #fantasticfest
unlabelledView post →However like Spencer with The Nice Guys I could discuss The Raid for two hours, which is longer than the actual movie
unlabelledView post →If you're missing the relentless action of John Wick, then look for Dev Patel's MONKEY MAN. The film is exciting from end to end, w/ great supporting performances & a working class political POV. The fight choreography is amazing. Some of the best I've seen since THE RAID. You can find it on Prime.
unlabelledView post →Writer/Director Gareth Evans’ critically acclaimed action thriller ‘The Raid’ (aka ‘The Raid: Redemption’) starring Iko Uwais, Joe Taslim, Yayan Ruhian, and Donny Alamsyah premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival fifteen years ago this week (September 2011) 🚔 🏢 👊🏼 #OTD
unlabelledView post →It's true that HAVOC, the long-awaited crime movie from the director of THE RAID, is not THE RAID. But here I argue that it's Really Fucking Good™ in its own right, with absolutely ferocious action, tons of style and classic Tom Hardy grunting.
unlabelledView post →My only problem with Punisher: One Last Kill is I wish it was a full two hour movie. Emotionally intense, physically visceral - I dug this special. Its wild to me that so much of the focus has been one that one stunt shot, because the rest of this movie is The Raid levels of brutal action. 👍
unlabelledView post →watching The Raid in 4K--with the new color grading--feels like watching a completely new movie it's so vibrant and bright, the blood so much redder
unlabelledView post →He was literally so good in The Raid that they brought him back in the second movie as a completely different character.
unlabelledView post →Do it The Raid: Redemption style, all action and no plot. The Gettysburg movie version is fine but nowhere near visceral enough, you want to see every last moment of the rebs getting caught in a brutal crossfire Lee didn’t suss out because he actually wasn’t shit
unlabelledView post →The 100th and penultimate movie of my #ACenturyOfCinema challenge: 2011 THE RAID: REDEMPTION
unlabelledView post →Still one of my favorite fight scenes from The Raid. The moment it cuts to Iko jumping on the table I’m in action movie heaven. Amazing camera movement, fast and furious blocking and tracking followed by an awesome fall as the exclamation mark to the scene! Masterclass.
unlabelledView post →Picking a random film from my collection to show off for no real reason! Day #123 "The Raid: Redemption" (Gareth Evans/2011) A game changing action film. It borders on horror with its wave after wave of enemies thrown at the cops as they fight their way up a tenement building. Worth your time!
unlabelledView post →I maintain that The Raid does the best job of any action movie of making it clear how villainous the bad guy is without using words. youtu.be/qNF7R2XhhbQ?...
unlabelledView post →My movie night friends are gentle nerds, and I’m not sure they’re ready for THE RAID. Nevertheless...
unlabelledView post →Picking a random film from my collection to show off for no real reason! Day #244 "The Raid 2" (Gareth Evans/2014) A film maybe a hair too long but the action set pieces are outstanding and sometimes that's just what the doctor ordered. Hoping we get a 4K release of this one too! Check it out.
unlabelledView post →A big thank you to everyone that watched our review of THE FURIOUS, but if you haven't seen the film yet, please table this until you do, as there are some spoilers here. If it's still in theaters where you're currently at, then go and watch it ASAP! This is not The Raid!
unlabelledView post →I had no idea that Gareth (THE RAID) Evans had made an action movie with Tom Hardy, Timothy Olyphant, and Forest Whitaker until about five minutes ago because Netflix has no fucking idea how to promote any movie I might want to watch, I swear.
unlabelledView post →about to go into The Raid (thanks @ninjapleasedj.bsky.social for getting me and @jakei.bsky.social in!) I have to say the film festival experience, which I’ve never really done before, is cool as hell - the crowds really add a lot to the experience
unlabelledView post →Murder Game 致命潮汐 [2026] Directed By: Bo Yin When I saw this listed and it has A Yixia (Dressed in Black) AKA Aisha (But listed as Arya in this film). Who co-star with one of the people's favorites in the Chinese action space, Yang Xing earlier this year with "The Raid"
unlabelledView post →Alternatively, if you enjoy the spectacle of men hitting each other with hammers, you'll love The Furious, a ground-breaking Hong Kong martial-arts flick, out now in the USA and next week in the UK. It's the best thing of its kind since The Raid 1 and 2. 4 out of 5 film-authority.com/2026/06/15/t...
unlabelledView post →We're at the 2025 Toronto Film Festival's Midnight Madness, and back for the attack; Kenji Tanigaki's The Furious is probably the best straight-up martial-arts action-movie since The Raid 1 and 2 Get ready for mountain-bike fu and ass-kicking on a grand scale. 4/5 film-authority.com/2025/09/11/t...
unlabelledView post →I can't remember the last widely acclaimed action movie I enjoyed. Maybe The Raid.
unlabelledView post →ICE : the Raid was a documentary movie
unlabelledView post →If you ask someone to remember The Raid 2 in sequence they will say 'IMPOSSIBLE' because that's how much movie is in that movie.
unlabelledView post →THE RAID 2 (aka Casey’s favorite action film of this century)
unlabelledView post →TIKI DRINKS: One of my favorite trips of the festival. Finally getting time with my friends after cranking out reviews. A perfect prelude to a movie with action choreography from the team behind THE RAID and THE NIGHT COMES FOR US. #FantasticFest
unlabelledView post →I got around to watching the Indonesian film, The Raid. (It's on Shudder.) Damn cool movie with some of the wildest fight choreo I've ever seen.
unlabelledView post →Remembering more "strongest audience reaction" moments: At the Glasgow Film Fest, THE RAID got several spontaneous rounds of applause, and a standing ovation at the end. The first time I saw ALIENS, "Get away from her you bitch!" had the audience clapping and cheering...
unlabelledView post →#NowWatching John Wick movie marathon, anyone?? This has to be my favorite action movie franchise to date. Only rivaled by The Raid movies. #JohnWick
unlabelledView post →if you’re an action aficionado and you haven’t done a deep dive on Asian cinema you’re massively depriving yourself (I saw The Raid again last year at a film festival with an audience of big fans and that was an incredible experience)
unlabelledView post →The Raid. The whole damn movie.
unlabelledView post →rewatched Dredd (2012) and that movie fucks exactly as hard as it did when I first saw it. I can’t wait to watch The Raid: Redemption and The Raid 2 again soon.
unlabelledView post →The movie really just needs to be like The Raid: an excuse to have 90 minutes worth of the sickest fight scenes you’ve ever seen in your life, set to the SoR2 soundtrack.
unlabelledView post →We are going to need to have a greater martial arts film talk because limiting it to kung fu really does leave out a lot of the true greats. Both The Raid films do different things but occupy different spaces in my heart.
unlabelledView post →also, I treat The Raid as a full-definition Action Movie, it's not specifically a kung-fu movie, both in the sense of "mostly focused on martial arts" OR "focused on skill through mastery, the real definition of kung-fu"
unlabelledView post →This looks like The Raid movie and I'm all here for it.
unlabelledView post →Hollywood has yet to make the movie that out does Hard Boiled. Arguably the only movie (outside Hollywood) that does is John Woo's the Killer but I'm open to someone saying The Raid.
unlabelledView post →Somebody with better film history knowledge than me tell me what action movie was the first to do a hallway fight scene. You know what I mean, The Raid, Oldboy, Daredevil, etc.
unlabelledView post →TRIVIA: Despite the fact that the tagline for 'The Raid' mentions "30 floors of chaos," the apartment building in the movie only features 14 floors, 15 if you count the ground floor. (IMDB) 🖤
unlabelledView post →"Everyone knows that THE RAID and READY OR NOT are two different movies. What this movie surmises is: what if they weren't?" (complimentary)
unlabelledView post →A Dredd film needs to be structured way more like Friday the 13th and less like The Raid
unlabelledView post →Still blows me away how excellent this film is. The Raid (2011) youtu.be/7iotMIWbji8?...
unlabelledView post →yo this movie shreds. if you like The Raid this is gonna land for you. it's not a martial arts ride but the mood and environment share some DNA.
