Sundance 2014: Watch the Amazing Trailer for THE RAID 2

Twitch posted the newly released Indonesian trailer for Gareth Evans‘ The Raid 2: Berandal, which looks even more amazing than the previously released teaser.  The film will be making its world premiere at this year’s Sundance Film Festival and is the number one film on my must-see list at the fest.  I was wondering how they could possibly top the amazing visceral action of the first entry and it looks like they will absolutely succeed in the sequel.

The Raid 2 will be hitting theaters in the U.S. March 28th, hit the break to check out the trailer and synopsis. 

Here’s the synopsis provided by Sundance:

Immediately following the events of the original, The Raid 2 tracks Officer Rama as he is pressured to join an anticorruption task force to guarantee protection for his wife and child. His mission is to get close to a new mob boss, Bangun, by befriending his incarcerated son, Uco. Rama must hunt for information linking Bangun with corruption in the Jakarta Police Department while pursuing a dangerous and personal vendetta that threatens to consume him and bring his mission–and the organized crime syndicate–down around him.
 
Filmmaker Gareth Evans gloriously reunites with star Iko Uwais for this epic martial arts sequel. No longer confined to a single building, the fight spills across the streets of Jakarta–from prison yards to subway cars. Evans packs his film with enough jaw-dropping action and groan-inducing hits to rival a Hollywood studio’s entire summer slate.
