      Just to be fair, this movie came out before Dredd, however, I think Dredd was in production for a year before this movie. So, it's genuinely just a strange coincidence that they both had a very, very similar setting.

    The Raid changed the way fight scenes and action in movies could be forever. You can tell every decent movie after 2011 (ones like John Wick) got their inspiration from this. Gareth Evans is the director of this and The Raid 2 (which you need to watch) and he really is a perfectionist. Joe Taslim who played Jaka and Iko Uwais who played Rama both said on a podcast with Scott Adkins that the director for this was like no other. They said he would spend days on one fight scene and make sure it looked perfect for the camera before moving on. It really shows in these movies as they are certainly some of the best fight scenes ever choreographed. If you're wondering the main style of martial arts in this movie, its one called Silat, very specific and one you wont have seen much in movies before

    The 'familiar guy' was Mad Dog, and yes, he was one of the two who tumbled with John Wick in his third movie. He and Iko Uwais (this movie's protagonist) were playing a minor role in Star Wars. You can find Joe Taslim in a lot of western films. These Indonesian boys has grown a lot and I'm proud of 'em (I'm Indonesian XD)

    LOL..your reaction.
    The first time I heard about the Raid Redemption, using Pencak Silat. I was like, really, you're using Pencak Silat, and I wonder how brutal the movie would be. I am Indonesian and I did Pencak Silat in school only for 1 semester. It is beautiful but deadly.
    Imagine me going to cinema with bunch of my friends, watching with no freaking Pause button.
    Fights after fights after fights. It's beautiful yet deadly. I just couldn't take my eyes off of the big screen.
    In all the fight scenes, you know exactly the position, the left-right, as if you were there directly watching the fight. I was rooting for Rama for the whole movie. I wanted him to go back safely to his pregnant wife. And when the movie was ended, I felt so tired, due to the Adrenaline rush, I guess, seeing so many fight scenes.

Big respect and appreciation to all the film crew and actors who were part of this, especially to the Top Three Badasses: Iko Uwais (Rama), Joe Taslim (Jaka) and Yaya Ruhian (Mad Dog).And yes, Nikki you two have definitely seen Yaya and Iko in a cameo on Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Yaya was featured as the main fight in John Wick 3.
    The Raid was exceptional and highly technical but if you all that plus some of the gory action scenes ever in Martial arts film then I highly recommend The Night Comes For Us. OMG what a film!!! Please react/review it, I guarantee you will not regret it. Btw that movie also has all three of those badasses!! Always love your reactions!!! 👍👍❤❤
