No....I have not seen it, Yet. And...neither do I have any intention of seeing this movie^^
Because....it's not my kind of film. I think it is too viscerally violent for me.
I know this is Indonesian movie, the first ever to be released in worldwide release including that of US, Canada, Australia, UK, NZ, and others. Well, it is indeed something to be proud of.
the so-much hype and buzz going on and circling around this so-called 'the best action movie in decade or in years....' has been lingering on my ears and eyes (via news or online news). Surprising as it may seem, but it is not. The Raid turns out to be what lots of folks around the world have been talking about. It meets what it's been hyped about for. Just take a look at the reviews :....

The film speed of 24
frames-per-second barely outruns the relentless pace of pummeling that thumps
through the Indonesian martial arts flick "The Raid: Redemption."

slain, over and over, by the insanely violent multilevel bash "The Raid:

cop flicks. There are people, but no real characters. There are grunts, but no
real dialogue. There are just body parts, twisted into ...
