Asia Cine-Club: The Raid 2 (2014, Indonesia)🗓 Tuesday, October 13 | ⏰ Doors: 6PM | 🎬 Film: 8PM | 📍 TicTic, Phnom Penh
Picking up hours after the first film, Rama (Iko Uwais) goes undercover inside Jakarta's criminal underworld to root out corruption that goes all the way up - a job that takes him from prison-yard brawls to a kitchen fight that's become one of the most studied action sequences of the decade. Gareth Evans expands everything about the original: bigger scope, more factions, and pencak silat choreography pushed to a level few action films have matched since.
Believe the hype on this one - critics who thought the first Raid couldn't be topped were mostly proven wrong. It's brutal, gorgeously shot, and considerably more ambitious in its storytelling than a film this violent has any obligation to be.
"Believe the hype: 'The Raid 2' is as exciting as you've heard."
- Simon Abrams, RogerEbert.com
"Faster and more brutal than anything else on the market."
- Grady Hendrix, Film Comment Magazine
