We recently had this trailer submitted to us by Merantau Films, and I have to say...I think this movie would kick ass if it hit the big screen. The movie premiered on a limited release basis at various festivals, but has a tentative release date of January 19, 2012. The premise is pretty simple, an elite police force has to work their way up a 30 story building to defeat a dangerous crime lord in Jakarta, but they get way more than they could have ever expected. The trailer is a nonstop barrage of kickass action and solid choreography, and the movie generated some pretty amazing reviews at the Toronto film festival, garnering a 9.0 IMDB score from 190 viewers. It also turns out that Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda will be scoring the film, and judging from the trailer, he's doing a damn fine job. We're keeping our fingers crossed that Sony will do a limited release stateside when it comes out.
EDIT: We previously indicated in the title that this was a Malaysian movie, by error. Sorry for the mistake, and thanks for the correction!
