[8.75/10] The Raid 2 (2014)

The Raid 2 (2014)

Quick Review: More polished in production, if not as inventive and mind-blowingly frantic as the unique original film, "The Raid 2" is a 150- minute thrill ride of hyper violence, stylishly-executed and remarkably- choreographed fight scenes, each more heart-poundingly intense then the next, all surrounded by a solid plot, and further elevated by the likable Iko Uwais' impressive action skills and acting abilities. This is the near-perfect sequel, fans of the first flick were hoping to get.
