Masterpiece!!! This movie is an absolute must see for Martial Art fans

I love this movie, but RAID 2 takes it to a whole different level!!!

Good news, there's The Raid 2. Bad news, there's no The Raid 3.😢

The martial art used in this movie is called "Silat". A lot of school kids in Indonesia, Malaysia, & Brunei learn this martial art. It is not impossible for most people in that building know how to fight like that.

the guy who was explaining the mission is same guy who plays sub-zero in mortal kombat

Most of the actors actually did hit each other, but it wasn't by accident. They just did it as softly as possible, while still making contact.

He's a "pencak silat" athlete, "pencak silat" is a martial art from Indonesia, And he himself choreographed the fight in this film 🤷‍♂️ Next 🙏🏻 reacting to THE RAID 2, Because THE RAID 2 is a continuation of the storyline of this film

Part 2 is even better imo🔥 great to see y’all back

Me & my brother went to the screening for this before it came out. The writer / director Gareth Evans was there & had a Q&A after. He said with the fights, they were really hitting each other to the body. No headshots though.

Also, Iko Uwais (Rama) & Yayan Ruhian (Mad Dog) both worked on the fight choreography. They’re both master practitioners of the Indonesian martial art called Silat.

Yes, those whom practice this martial art have done some sort of trainning of combat. They have done this for various functions, like weddings, etc. Yes, they hit but usually without full force. Furthermore most of the stun actors have simillar or same martial art (of different branches). They know what to do, furthermore yayan & iko are sifus.

I loved this movie, I liked the realistic stunt choreography especially during the fight scenes. it was so real as if it actually happened

From the BTS the do actually hit each other, but with controlled power. That's why the impact feels real with minimal hospital visit 😅

Lets gooo for THE RAID 2 !

Mad dog is a beast 😂

Fun Fact: The actual film was The Raid 2. But the Director/producer didn't have the budget to make the film. So He made The Raid 1 to make money, so he could make The Raid 2

Where the raid 3😢

Not only this has some most amazing fight scenes and choreographs ever. Film maker's didn't do Hollywood style censoring. Every knife hit was aimed for kill / cripple spot unlike most Hollywood action films they mostly (with few exception) either censor hits, or show stabbing in location etc that is not dangerous in short term. These all in here... just for to kill or cripple. Its quite amazing.

The final fight against Mad Dog, iirc, took two weeks to shoot. Hollywood doesn't want to "waste" that kind of time, they want to wrap it up as fast as possible so they can make money and move on to the next project... the result are lame fight scenes with fast cuts and shaky camera, to hide poor choreography and sloppy execution. That's why movies like The Raid are so good, they actually put in the time and effort instead of rushing and halfassing

This movie was a masterpiece and the Raid II might even be better. You guys gotta do that one next! Great reaction! Earned my sub.

john wick, captain america winter soldier, dare devil, the arrow and so many other movies are inspired by this movie. this movie becomes reference for action movies in the world. go watch The Raid 2: Berandal

FUN FACT: the Swat Leader was the same guy that played Sub Zero in the latest Mortal Kombat Movie

remember randomly watching this movie on dvd for the first time, it was really amazing

I like the way you react on this my fav movie, it's so natural and not too much like the other guys did, and you explain the scenes, the editing, etc. keep up guys!!

You NEED to react to The Raid 2: Brendal. The sequel is just as good, if not better than the first film.

Because I’m still young and energetic I love acting out martial arts fights but these are legit the first fights that I struggled to keep up with. They are so awesome and fun.

Great choice, part 2 is just as good and maybe even better

Phenomenal movie!!! Thanks for reacting!

Great reaction! Can’t wait for your reaction to the second film, it levels up so hard! 👍🏽💥

Great to see you both enjoying this masterpiece of a martial action movie. The punches/kicks you've seen in this movie mostly were direct hit. The actors (Yes the actors can fight here) and stuntments had to learn how to slow down their hit when it close to touch their partner so it wont hurt that much during the filming of the fight scene. At the time for the practice or choreo making they went to build like trust to each other so whenever one hit a bit too hard they wont hit their partner back. Would love to see ya guys watch the sequel cuz its a whole lot better than this movie in almost every way

I'm glad this won the poll.

I love how they slow down the fight scenes for choreography cuz the real application of proper silat is too fast to be enjoyed as a scene lul

Both Mad Dog and Iko (the protagonist) were in Force Awakens.

Fun fact, BGM is from Mike Shinoda Linkin Park, and MadDog once trained somekind of Indonesian Special Force

IKO UWAIS successfully starred in several films at the start of his career in Indonesia, including The Raid, now he is a Hollywood actor and has played many roles with several Indonesian colleagues. The choreography used uses pencak silat martial arts techniques, a martial art originating from Indonesia

just realized crazy eyes is very polite, after he trashed the apartment of the guy who saved rama, he closed the door when he left😂

Have fun with part 2 - especially the "kitchen fight"!

alrightt guys, theres no going back lol. THE RAID 2 is INSANEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE, more characters, more complex story, more place (not in just one building lol), more ass kicking, its just more and moreeee

Anyway, the actor for Mad Dog (Yayan Ruhyan) was known as really nice and warm person

After you watch part two, please watch "The night comes for us" ITs like a raid/Horror film. Dope. It has a lot of the same cast as in this.

This movie is dope. Iko Uwais (the main actor) is one of the best actor in action and martial art movies, he's fucking insane. Please react The Raid 2, and his another movies: The Night Comes for Us and Merantau.

"Fun Fact that Mad Dog guy together with the main kick ass villain from The Raid 2 was playing on John Wick 3 to be kinda some major obstacle to Keanu Reeves !"...🤔😅

39:18 my favorite part of the movie... My friend would get pissed when I rewind that over and over

The boss who died in the end is a big star in Indonesia when he is young, the others is new to acting...

❤❤ Hey there 🤗 I just subscribed to your channel! The Raid 2 you are gonna love. I have wanted both Raid movies everything is brilliant. There are a few other movies on Netflix that have the same actors different characters and stories. Again brilliant arts of art. Smooches

Thank you for giving your reactions to films from my country ❤

Hey, congrats on the delivery (of the baby, that is) and welcome back!

BTW...fun fact., "IKO UWAIS" as the martial art policman..,he is villain on "The EXPENDABLES 4". And "JOE TASLIM" as Jaka is Sub Zero in "MORTAL KOMBAT " 🤘 IKO.. like Indonesian jackie chan ...,and all the choreos come from him..

It’s kinda funny seeing both of you say the same words at the same time over and over again😂 Great reaction guys👏 Love from Indonesia👍

at 29:35 minutes, the person fighting against Mad Dog is called Joe Taslim, who plays Zub Zero in the film Mortal Combat

Joe Taslim (The cop leader who got killed by Mad Dog) is Sub-Zero on Mortal Kombat movie.

This film has a lot of fighting/many people who can fight with the martial art "Silat" because this film also has a documentary motif. Gareth Evans (Wales, England) is a documentary filmmaker who loves silat, meets several silat teachers Iko (Rama), Yayan (Mad Dog) and members of several silat schools. They all wanted to introduce Silat as a martial art that existed hundreds of years ago in Southeast Asia (Indonesia). If Americans (Hollywood) saw that Kungfu/Karate/Taekwondo was great and big like the vastness of the ocean, I would say that Silat is the Ocean. So when Gareth (England) took the film The Raid internationally, many fans of Hollywood martial arts films were shocked! The new world was introduced to Kungfu/karate etc. because the country of origin was already advanced and controlled cinema. However, for several European countries such as the Netherlands/France/England, the older generation already knows and feels the bitterness of Silat, because they have already set foot in Indonesia. And silat schools also exist in the countries mentioned above, although they are not widespread, because silat techniques are difficult to adapt to the world of sports. Karate/Kungfu/Taekwondo/Wrestling/etc. also live and develop in Indonesia, but it is difficult for the Betawi/Sundanese/West Sumatran tribes to develop, because this is the basic tribe of pencak silat. Indonesian society is very closely related to pencak silat. If you know Jacky Chan, there is an Indonesian actor who has the same talent and has received the same international award, namely Willy Dozen/Billy Chong... see "Cristal Fist". kzread.info-l1s83PkUps?feature=shared kzread.info/dash/bejne/n6tp2LOpp9fdqZs.htmlfeature=shared Billy doesn't want to extend his contract in Hong Kong because of pressure from the Mafia. Billy was recruited to play in films in America earlier than Jacky. There are also many Indonesians who are crew members in Hong Kong films, including the great Hong Kong actor Lo Lieh who is originally from Indonesia.

The choreograpy in this film is just insane. You guys gotta be watch The Raid 2 as well!

The raid 2 is another masterpiece. Highly recommend

This movie was incredible, everything about it was fantastic. Unfortunately it also came out around the time another movie, with a similar concept came out - 'Dredd 2012' with Karl Urban. Dredd was about the most PERFECT action movie Ive ever seen, but it didnt do well at the boxoffice cause The Raid got more publicity and I think, if Im remembering this right, The Raid was released in western theatres before. But yeah, Dredd 2012, wow, Karl Urban, Lena Heady (Cersei), penned and directed by Alex Garland (The Island, Annihilation, 28 Days Later), like I said is about the most PERFECT action movie, heart pounding, exhilarating, great story, acting, everything, just everything. Hope you guys put it on your list or your patreon poll or however you guys choose your movies The Mad Dog fights, wow, just wow

The one who play jaka did subzero in mortal kombat movie.. And also the mad dog guy did one of the john wick's enemy in john wick 3

You mention Mortal Kombat at 14.12, actually the police who shot the bad guy was the actor who played Subzero in the film Mortal Kombat

the sergeant (Joe Taslim) who fight first with mad dog (Yayan Ruhiyan) is the actor in the last mortal combat movie as sub zero.

Some of the music, IMO, sounds a bit like Terminator. There is no Raid 3 and the director moved on from the idea and even said Rama would only have had a minor role in it, anyway, and the story would've focused on something else. From what I read online, there is a Japanese movie called "Re:Born" (I never saw it) that comes very close to what we could've seen in The Raid 3 with the style being very similar to The Raid movies. I take it that you did not know or did not hear at the time years ago when Iko Uwais & Yayan Ruhian were hired to work on The Force Awakens? I remember back when it was first announced how excited everybody got, including me, that those 2 would be in The Force Awakens & what crazy action choreography we might see. But, we all got disappointed their involvement was not as we had thought. If I recall correctly, I think I read later some of their main stuff ended up being cut out. Iko Uwais is also in Mile 22 (great, underrated movie, IMO), Expendables 4, Headshot, The Night Comes For Us, Triple Threat, Stuber, Beyond Skyline. In my opinion, Dredd (with Karl Urban) is like the americanized version of The Raid & Extraction 2 (with Chris Hemsworth) is like the americanized version of The Raid 2, just less graphical. There was supposed to an american remake of The Raid, but last I heard, I think it was canceled (either canceled or changed into something else). If true, I think that is for the best. I'd rather we have some movies take inspiration and do homage to scenes in The Raid, rather than a full american remake.

great reactions guyss

Joe Taslim (Jaka) in the movie is Sub Zero now

Thank you for reacting to this movie, I'm from Indonesia and I have subscribed to your channel now, also watch Iko Uwais' other movie's, I hope you enjoy it..😂

The raid really changed mainstream movie fight. I know movies like Ong Bak do it to, but this was the first to use combine skill, camera work,(Jackie chan and classic chinese fights)and brutality(The raid)we see in movies like kingsman.

Its the Kanji Club guys! The Raid series set the bar high in the fighting arts genre.

Nah, they did that in a week. Gareth is a man with mad attention to details, in every shot he needs at least 8-9/10 shots. The scene when Jaka and Mad Dog met (knife v pistol) for that one simple scene they did it for +50 takes.

As an Indonesian, this is the reason I afraid live in Indonesia

All your questions are answered in the sequel. Yall gotta watch it. It's even better than this first one.
