So, I just watched The Raid, and now have a new benchmark for delightfully over the top violence. It's just ninety minutes of people getting punched, kicked, stabbed, bludgeoned, shot, impaled, thrown down stairwells, blowed up real good, and sliced with machetes.
It also features probably the most honourable and fair-minded psychopathic death machine ever seen on screen, a weaponised refrigerator, and (in a wonderfully straightforward plot) a twist that I did not see coming.
