I was stunned to see the action (Kung-fu) sequences in the movie. The action sequence at the climax was my favorite. Apart from the stunt-men, I feel the camera-work is intense and superb. I loved the bgm that added a flavor to the theme. The storyline is too simple (a group of newly trained recruits raid a building to take down a mobster) but has few twists and turns at apt points in the movie.The dialogs were ultra-reduced and not convincing. The acting is just okay, could've been better. The movie is not for kids due to gory scenes and profane words. The script could've been handled with some 'feelings' and some background on the villain.
The bottom line : 'The Raid' entertains you with good action throughout with few flaws.
