Rama’s kitchen-set showdown with Bejo’s most lethal henchman ranks among the greatest one-on-one fight sequences in recent memory. A car chase sequence is so dizzyingly inventive it would send Jason Bourne spinning off of the pavement. A mud-soaked brawl on a prison yard early in the film makes the opening turf battle of “Gangs of New York” look cute in comparison. Evans (who not only directed but edited the film as well) catapults himself to the forefront of action directors, systematically tackling and outdoing just about every benchmark for combat in the pantheon. The violence is jaw-dropping, with every evisceration leaving a traumatic reverberation in its wake, only to be outdone by the next gruesome strike. Each one is preceded by a meticulously observed build up: We watch as some of the greatest martial artists in the world snap, gouge, and pummel every component of each other’s anatomy with whatever object is at hand. Undoubtedly the most astonishing aspect of “The Raid 2” are its action set pieces, which create the impression that “The Raid: Redemption” was just a warm up. In a welcome piece of stunt casting, Yayan Ruhian (who played Mad Dog in the first installment) returns, reincarnated as another unstoppable berserker named Prakoso. On the periphery is the ambitious upstart Bejo, whose arsenal includes a trio of assassins so outlandish they could comfortably reside on the pages of the wackiest of mangas.

Ucok (Arifin Putra, sporting classic movie star looks), Bangun’s son and the man with whom Rama must ingratiate himself, is a petulant king-in-waiting all too eager to inherent his father’s crown, his sense of entitlement only matched by his ruthlessness. Controlling the city are two crime lords: The local syndicate lead by the all-powerful Bangun, and the refined Goto, who exerts an equally iron fist from Japan. Almost immediately, Rama realizes that this quest will become much more complicated than that.Įvans populates this epic with a rogues’ gallery of larger than life villains, each of them distinctive and fittingly despicable. His mission calls for him to land in prison for a few months in order to befriend the incarcerated dark prince of the mob, Ucok. Exhausted and disillusioned by his ordeal, he initially refuses, but accepts the task when he considers the prospects of personal vengeance.

In exchange for his family’s protection from these dark forces, Rama is asked to go undercover into the belly of the beast. It turns out that the crime lord Rama helped take down in “The Raid: Redemption” was but one midlevel spider amongst a massive web of criminality. Our hero Rama ( Iko Uwais), his wounds sustained from an army of thugs still fresh, is brought before a special squad keen on cleansing the city of the reigning mafia as well as the police force that aids and abets them.
