Watch Out For ‘The Raid’

I have been following any news for The Raid, for quite some time now. In it’s basic premise: A SWAT team has to take down a drug lord. Bad shit happens, and the entire building begins to hunt the team. Many people are killed in bad ways, leaving one elite SWAT member (Iko Uwais) to fight his way through the carnage.

Does it sound overly original? Not in the slightest. Does it look extremely badass? Most definitely! A similar plot can be used numerous times, as long as the execution is well done. I am just basing my assumption off of the trailer, and an early review, but it seems safe to say that everything will be top notch (no CGI people running and flying through the air is a good start…CGI blood spatter does not bother me too much).

If you are still in the dark about this future gem, check out the trailer below (good amount of violence, so probably NSFW)…men, I dare you to say this looks weak — seriously, I dare you.
