The Night Comes for Us

I am going to keep this review nice and short. If you don't mind over-the-top violence and appreciate action movies then this movie is, plainly put, the best action movie of all time. That's right, I said it.

This is the Raid 3 in essence and if you like the first two movies then this movie is a must-watch for fans.

Amazing fight chirography and the action sequences are amazing.

Loved every bit of the 120 minutes running time.

We need to thank the film makers, actors and Netflix for bringing this to us. Easily the best Netflix in its history so far.

A solid 10/10. Watch it for yourself.

You think you've seen it all? Action, blood, guts, brains, bullets, body parts, broken teeth, sliced fingers, chopped heads, smashed heads, broken skulls, broken bones, protruding bones, hmmm? Think you've seen it all? SMH ... you haven't... until you watch this film.

Watchers beware, this film is not for the faint of heart. If you plan on becoming an active war medic, or a member of the cartel torture squad... well you get my point. ..

WATCH THIS MOVIE IT's WORTH FOR THE ACTION AND GORE Yes when i heard the name iko uwais new movie is out on netflix i just jumped into it cause even though story is weak his actions his enough to steer through and i was kinda disappointed in this .not here to spoil the show but here's how it goes if you have seen these movies headshot (DIR & PRO made this flick) ,raid 1&2 you might have seen how quick and agile group of minion thugs wielding machete are ..but here they made it like some sort of horde waiting for the cast( not here to spoil) to make the next move and yeah to be killed eventually but here is the catch after 1 or 2 fighting scene you can see that they made these cast like meat shield absorbing more than 3 or 7 maybe even more death blows only to be killed by enemy boss Eventually sigh:( it bugs me the most to say that it was like some martial art tournament game strong vs strong which we could forsee it already with a story so vague i cant expect more . GORE PART: only word i can say is daaaaaaaaam and brutal junks of flesh flying & lying everywhere coupled with vicious martial arts and weaponry which is a huge + and a treat to watch if you love gore of course.

I really cant hate this movie and it's hard to see martial arts flicks like these so yeah do watch it..

I've been needing a good insane action movie fix for a while now, and this was definitely it. Once this movie ramps up, it never comes back down. Nonstop incredible action all the way through. This film is amazing at using its surroundings to its advantage. A fight scene in a butchers room? Every cleaver, slab of meat, meat hook, and bone becomes a weapon. Fight next to a pool table? Pool balls and pool sticks used in the most brutal way possible. The fight choreography is phenomenal and I was almost convinced they were just beating the piss out of the actors. This movie is such a brutal and fun time, a great movie to watch with a room full of energetic friends.

My first thought when I saw this one released: New Iko Uwais movie? Must see!

And boy did I get more and more disappointed the longer the movie went on. "The Raid" was a good example of really good mass fight choreography where 20 vs. 1 didn't mean 19 people waiting and it actually being twenty 1 on 1 fights. This movie is the PERFECT example of twenty opponents awaiting their turn to get slaughtered. There is not a lot of finesse, this movie is all about gore and maximum brutallity, leaving the "good" guys shredded to pieces and continue fighting in an absolutely unbeliebavble state of injury.

If you are able to COMPLETELY suspend ANY disbelief, your totally fine with oponents in fight scenes doing the pause after one move until the good guy destroys them routine, mass fights with bad guys attack one after another, and don't need any kind of story when it's a good gorefest, then this is for you.

That said... Purely as a gorefest it is fantastic! Blood and guts everywhere, bodyparts are getting cut off, places get totally trashed, tons of broken bones in almost every scene, more cuts and slices than in any butcher shop - oh wait, except for the butcher shop scene in this one :) - and did I mention BLOOD, BLOOD, BLOOD? For the artistic and imaginative gorefest it is, I gave it 5 stars

Alas I expected more of a martial arts movie featuring Iko Uwais having seen his other movies with way better and more believable choreography, so this was a huge disappointment for me. And for my taste they were trying so very much too hard to make this look and feel like one of the classic heroic bloodshed movies John Woo did in his earlier career, going waaay over the top with it, there were moments I felt a bit digusted at that.

Bottom line: Great for gorelovers, painful if suspension of disbelief doesn't come easy for you, so and so for martial arts fans.
