No word yet on a cast or release date, but when there is I’ll bitch about it some more.

Not to mention its stars were actual martial artists, not untrained movie stars aided by quick cuts and CGI. Plus, The Raid works so well because it’s not padded with the moralizing, exposition, and B-plots American studios seem to think audiences want. It won’t look great if we get a predominately white DEA squad invading Philly tenements in search of a crime kingpin in these days of increasing recreational drug legality. First off, I’m pretty sure the most violent thing to happen in low-income, post-WWII Philadelphia is still the time it was bombed by the cops. The ways this could go very wrong outnumber the ways it could go right. The remake, according to Deadline, “… is set in Philadelphia’s drug-infested “Badlands,” where an elite undercover DEA task force climbs a ladder of cartel informants to catch an elusive kingpin.” And, well, we all know what (ugh) Michael Bay’s done. The sequel was so bad Roxana called it “a movie that convinced me time had slowed to a crawl and captured me in its malevolent molasses grip,” while Expendables 3 demonstrates the Law of Diminishing Returns so clearly that it should be required viewing for any film criticism class. The Hitman’s Bodyguard is an entertaining movie held up by stellar performances by Ryan Reynolds, Samuel L. Patrick Hughes’s record isn’t much better. With the sole exception of The Old Guard, Netflix’s one smashing success, I can’t tell any of them apart. The plots are bogged down by exposition and absurd dialogue, the stars interchangeable as the GI Joes in a kid’s sandbox. As a production company, Netflix has created scores of bland, nearly colorless action movies indistinguishable from one another. That’s not a pair to inspire confidence, particularly with Netflix involved. Gareth Evans is on board as EP, but Patrick Hughes ( The Hitman’s Bodyguard, Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, Expendables 3) will write and direct, and (ugh) Michael Bay will produce. Now, because we can’t have anything nice, Netflix is remaking the movie for American audiences. It inspired an equally successful sequel and any number of carbon copies and homages, such as John Wick 3. Cho mogoby si wydawa, e sequel z 2014 roku wystarczajco wyeksploatowa t histori, na horyzoncie pojawi si. Positive reviews and word of mouth generated a cult following and almost $10 million in US DVD and Blu-Ray sales despite its limited theatrical release.

It’s so graphic even I flinched a few times, though I could never look away. Michael Bay American film director and producer (born 1965) A new take on the cult 2012 martial arts film The Raid: Redemption is coming to Netflix from producers Michael Bay and the original.

Things go awry as soon as they arrive, and what follows is 101 minutes of operatic violence. The 2011 Indonesian hit, written and directed by Gareth Evans, strips all the filler out of its story of a Jakartan Mobile Brigade squad attempting the capture of a vicious crime lord ruling over a dilapidated tenement.
