A former triad enforcer named Eto'o, on a new mission. His mission is to protect a young girl while fleeing his former gang. After his disappearance, which has been vague for everyone, it may turn into new and exciting battles and endless fighting in the streets of violence-plagued Jakarta.
If we're never going to see a third installment of The Raid, The Night Comes For Us is truly the best possible sequel scenario we can hope for, with Tjahjanto firmly cementing himself as the future of action cinema with his efforts here.
Akin to The Raid 2 in particular, Tjahjanto blends emotion and scale with close-quarter savagery to craft an experience both exhilarating and exhausting.
Timo Tjahjanto masters fist-of-fury filmmaking not only by dragging audiences into a mega-fun knockout most pit but experimenting with body-cam angles and honoring continuity.
It uses a thin plot touching on the classic Hong Kong action themes of brotherhood and loyalty as an excuse to string together a series of gonzo action set-pieces so ingeniously bloody that one could conceivably classify the film as horror.
