If you haven’t seen The Raid, stop reading this now and go to Netflix and stream that sh*t… Ya back? Good. How amazing was that?
We’re generally not prone to hyperbolic statements here at JOE (…shurrup), but The Raid is possibly the best action film of the past couple of decades. It is unrelenting and utterly breathtaking.
Now, we have easily our favourite trailer this year with it’s highly anticapted sequel.

Wow. Just wow. How much could Hollywood learn from Welch director Gareth Evans and his kick ass cast? This looks absolutely unreal!
Also, remind us never to f**k with lead Iko Uwais as his hands are going so quick there they may have travelled back in time. His cop character goes undercover in the sequel to crack the criminal underworld and protect his family.
We feel bad for the criminals.
Expect to see this one in the first half of 2014.
