This is the second collaboration of Evans and Uwais after their first action film, ''Merantau'', released in 2009. Both films showcase the traditional Indonesian martial art Pencak Silat, with fight choreography by Uwais and Yayan Ruhian, who also worked on ''Merantau''. The U.S. release of the film features music by Mike Shinoda and Joseph Trapanese. After its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), ''The Raid'' received positive reviews from critics. The name of the film was changed to ''The Raid: Redemption'' in the United States because the distributor company Sony Pictures Classics could not secure the rights to the title; this also allowed Evans to plan out future titles in the series. It was released in the United States on DVD and Blu-ray Disc on 14 August 2012. A sequel, ''The Raid 2 ''(known as ''The Raid 2: Berandal ''in Indonesia), was released in 2014 to positive reviews; winning even more awards. Another sequel, ''The Raid 3'', is planned for release in 2018 or 2019. ==Plot== The film opens with Indonesian SWAT officer Rama praying, practicing silat and bidding goodbye to his wife, who is pregnant with his child. Rama joins a 20-man elite police squad, including Officer Bowo, Sergeant Jaka, and Lieutenant Wahyu, for a raid on an apartment block in Jakarta's slums. The team intends to capture crime lord Tama Riyadi, who owns the block and lets criminals around the city rent rooms under his protection. Arriving undetected, the team sweeps the first floors and subdues various criminal tenants; they also temporarily detain a innocent, law-abiding tenant delivering medicine to his sick wife in apt #726. Continuing undetected to the sixth floor, the team is spotted by a young lookout, who runs the message to another adolescent lookout, before he is speciously shot and killed by Wahyu; but the latter youth raises the alarm Tama calls down reinforcements. They snipe the two police officers patrolling the outside and shoot up the two waiting in the SWAT van, then ambush those on the first five floors, killing and maiming a majority of them. Cutting the lights, Tama announces over the PA system that the police are trapped on the sixth floor stairwell, and he will grant free permanent residence to those who kill the intruders. In the darkness, the team is soon ambushed by shooters from above and behind, killing of a great number of them. Jaka learns from Wahyu that the mission is not officially sanctioned by the police command; nobody knows their location, and no backup or reinforcements will arrive. The remaining officers are flee into an empty apartment, then use their ax to make a hole in the floor. Officer Bowo is shot and injured by a mob of pursuing thugs below. Rama uses a small propane tank, from under the kitchen sink to construct an improvised explosive device that kills the goons, giving them a small window of time. With more antagonists approaching, the team splits into two groups: Jaka, Wahyu, and Dagu retreat to the fifth floor, while Rama and Bowo ascend to the seventh. Fighting their way to apartment 726. Rama and Bowo must plead with the tenant for help, and despite his sick wife's protest, he reluctantly hides the officers in a secret wall space. Four machete-wielding thugs arrive and ransack the man's apartment, but fail to find Rama and Bowo. After tending to Bowo's wounds, Rama leaves him with the couple to search for Jaka's team; however, he crosses paths again with the machete gang. He manages to dispatch one member and flee, but is forced to fight the rest of them without any weapon. Rama defeats the group, including their leader, whom he uses to smash through a window and cushion a three story plummet onto a fire escape below. He then continues his search, only to be met by Andi, one of Tama's top lieutenants, yet who has just murdered two of Tama's thugs in the elevator. In a plot twist, Rama and Andi are actually estranged brothers of 6 years, and Rama signed up for the mission to search for him, at the urging of their father. Rama refuses to leave the building without his comrades, and Andi refuses to leave his auspicious criminal life. Concurrently, Jaka and his group are found by Mad Dog, Tama's ruthless henchman. Lt. Wahyu flees, and Jaka orders Dagu to follow Wahyu. Mad Dog captures Jaka, but instead of shooting him, Mad Dog challenges him to hand-to-hand combat. After Mad Dog kills Jaka, he drags the corpse to an elevator, where he meets up with Andi. Tama suspects that Andi aided Rama thanks to the numerous security cameras in the building, and fully realizes Andi's betrayal when he returns without a police corpse. Tama does not fully understand Andi's betrayal, but stabs him in the hand and turns him over to Mad Dog. Rama regroups with Wahyu and Dagu, who go on to fight through a narcotics lab, and they head for Tama on the 15th floor. Rama, finding Andi being beaten by Mad Dog, separates from Wahyu and Dagu to save him. Mad Dog allows him to free Andi and fights both brothers simultaneously. Mad Dog initially has the upper hand, but the brothers prove to be a match for him when working together. After an intense and grueling fight, Mad Dog eventually overcomes the brothers, but is stabbed in the neck by Andi while trying to finish off Rama. This weakens him enough for the brothers to finally kill him. Meanwhile, Wahyu and Dagu confront Tama, only for Wahyu to betray and kill Dagu. Wahyu takes Tama hostage with the intention of using him to escape, but Tama taunts Wahyu by revealing that Tama has been waiting for the team before the events of the movie began and Wahyu was set up by his corrupt higher-ups; even if Wahyu escapes, he will be killed later. Wahyu kills Tama and attempts suicide, only to find that he has no bullets left. Andi uses his influence over the tenants to allow Rama to leave with Bowo and a detained Wahyu. The tenant who protected Bowo watches from a window and grins with delight. Andi also hands over numerous blackmail recordings Tama made of corrupt officers taking bribes, hoping that Rama can use them to his benefit. Rama asks Andi to come home, but Andi refuses, due to his acclimation to his criminal lifestyle. Before Rama leaves, Andi asserts he can protect Rama in his role as a criminal boss, but that Rama could not do the same for him. Andi turns around and walks back to the apartment block with a grin that breaks into a wide-smile, whilst Rama, with Wahyu and an injured Bowo, exits to an uncertain future. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Raid: Redemption」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
