The Raid 2: Berandal (2014)

The sequel to the great Indonesian action film and it is brilliant.
Instead of doing it as another all out tense action thriller, Gareth Evans presents an epic gangster type story that may not be hugely unique, but is executed fantastically. The sets look great, the cinematography is superb, performances are good and even Kenichi Endo is in the film.
The actions sequence of course, are also handled excellently with so many tense and great moments, and the final fight having some of the best fight choreography that I have seen.
Simply one of the best films of 2014 so far.
****1/2
