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..

Right, well if "The Raid" or "The Raid: Redemption" didn't put Indonesia on the worldmap of action movies, then "The Night Comes For Us" certainly will do so. This 2018 movie is definitely one to watch. I found it on Netflix and didn't hesitate for a moment to sit down and watch it.

Why? Well, first of all it had both Iko Uwais and Joe Taslim on the cast list, and it was an Indonesian action movie. And if it was just equally adrenaline packed as "The Raid", then I would have been more than happy. It turned out that they took the energy and action from "The Raid" movies and amped it up... Yeah, didn't think that was possible, but they did...

Combine an overload of action, violence and mayhem with a nice storyline and throw in some good and interesting characters for good measure, then you have "The Night Comes For Us". This was a non-stop action orgy from start to end, and the movie never once lost its momentum or had a dull moment.

Needless to say that the action sequences in the movie were spectacular, lots of great choreography and execution of martial arts and practical stunts on the screen, which all came together for a very hard-hitting movie.

It was nice to see Iko Uwais not playing the archetypical hero for a change, and he did so with the usual excellency that he brings to the more heroic archetype characters. And I will say that Joe Taslim really carried this movie phenomenally with his performance.

If you are a stranger to Indonesian cinema and if you enjoy action movies, then "The Night Comes For Us" is highly recommended. This is a movie for men by men - 100% testosterone and adrenaline all the way.

Literally - and I had been warned about this. Now while at the start we only see an aftermath (still a lot blood and bodies laying around), it gets quite crazy during the run time. So if you can't stand the look of blood or are not into violent movies ... maybe you should not watch this. One criticism of users here has been the level of brutality on display. You've been warned.

Having said all that, the action scenes are really well choreographed. Yes you may wonder sometimes why only one person at a time is attacking, but that is nitpicking and deriving yourself of "enjoyment", remember this is only a movie and not a blueprint or a moral compass anyone should follow. One could easily depict the "story" which is quite slim. Also there is a short text introduction to the world we are about to enter. If you immerse yourself into it, you may understand what is going on. Even if you may not agree with the actions of the people involved, the sheer amount of insanity going on might catch up to you. Bloody genius? You decide
