Short description
Deep in the heart of Jakarta's slums lies an impenetrable safe house for the world's most dangerous killers and gangsters. Until now, the run-down apartment block has been considered untouchable to even the bravest of police. Cloaked under the cover of pre-dawn darkness and silence, an elite swat team is tasked with raiding the safe house in order to take down the notorious drug lord that runs it. But when a chance encounter with a spotter blows their cover and news of their assault reaches the drug lord, the building's lights are cut and all the exits blocked. Stranded on the sixth floor with no way out, the unit must fight their way through the city's worst to survive their mission. Starring Indonesian martial arts sensation Iko Uwais.
What's left behind the scenes
- To prepare the actors for filming, they were sent for a week to a Marine training base called "KoPaSKa" (Komando Pasukan Katak).
- All the weapons used in the film are airsoft replicas of real firearms. Spent casings and muzzle flashes during shooting were added using computer graphics.
- The original title of the film translates to "Fatal Raid".
- Mike Shinoda's music was not originally featured in the film. A new soundtrack was commissioned from Shinoda only after Sony Pictures acquired "The Raid" for North American distribution.
- In the film, Andy says, "What I do, I do very well. But what I do isn't very good"—this is a line from Wolverine. It was first spoken by Wolverine in the self-titled comic book in 1982 by Chris Claremont and Frank Miller.
