When considering writer-director Timo Tjahjanto’s new film, it will be difficult to omit two words: The Raid. Similarities between the two certainly have their veracity, with overlapping stars and head-cracking choreography at the forefront of these comparisons. Akin to The Raid 2 in particular, Tjahjanto blends emotion and scale with close-quarter savagery to craft an experience both exhilarating and exhausting. Yet The Night Comes For Us manages to carve its own brutal path, leaving in its wake a pile of bodies and a measure of emotional heft that stand as its own achievement.
Ito (Joe Taslim) is a member of an elite Triad force known as The Six Seas. When tasked with massacring a small village for respect, Ito has a change of heart in the form of a young girl. Surrounded by the fresh corpses of her parents, she represents a glimpse of a new life, one Ito cannot resist pursuing.
