Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Raid: Redemption is by far one of the most influential action films to come out of the 2010s, but revisiting it today unearths some unfortunate truths. Coming out of Indonesia, the daring martial arts film enthralled audiences upon its release in 2011, making a deserving star out of Iko Uwais, later appearing in The Expendables as well as a litany of other notable roles.
9 The Raid Doesn't Have Much In The Way Of Story Hardly an attempt is even made to give context to the action Essentially a film consisting of one big fight scene, The Raid: Redemption is utterly relentless in its pursuit of action purity. Early on, it's made clear in no uncertain terms that the choreography and martial arts prowess on display are the real stars of the show, with any attempt at a narrative taking a distant backseat.
7 Some Of The Battle Tactics Make No Sense Strategy wasn't high on the minds of The Raid's leaders Though Rama may be one of Iko Uwais' best martial arts roles, he isn't exactly the leader of his unit, much to the dismay of their overall tactical efficiency.
5 The Raid's Characters Are Undeveloped Rama and company are little more than their fists Even if many others of the greatest action films have similarly bare-bones stories, like The Raid: Redemption, there's one category other straightforward fighting films are able to nail that Gareth Evans' bone-crunching romp isn't able to nail. That is, the characters of The Raid are woefully undeveloped, even by action movie standards.
