The raid (first one, second one comes out on the 8th) 6.5/10
Decent action movie with a good soundtrack, it's the low budget Indonesian version of Dredd. Although since The raid came first maybe Dredd was inspired by it. Good fight scenes, plenty variation in the action to keep it interesting.

The movie unfortunately doesn't look all that good on blu-ray, soft digital camera look, muted colors, flat contrast with black level issues as if certain scenes were digitally brightened afterwards. I guess understandable with a 1.1 million budget. The movie was shot with the Panasonic AF-100 fig rig.

A slightly steadier version of a handheld camera. It does turn the camera into another actor, the camera movements did a good job to enhance the action.

I wonder what The raid 2 will look like. IMDB lists the GoPro HD Hero 3 as camera, but that's a $300 consumer grade sports camera. Sounds like a step backwards? Maybe a typo.

Looks like incomplete data, it was also shot with Red Epic and Red Scarlet cameras. http://shotonwhat.com/cameras/gopro-hd-hero3-camera A site made for me :) All the tech specs in one place.
