A SWAT team becomes trapped in a tenement run by a ruthless mobster and his army of killers and thugs.
There is a story, but does that matter? Dudes are getting bodied left and right.
Really?
Fine. Okay, here's the story:
There is an apartment complex controlled by a notorious drug kingpin. There is a swat team assigned the task of taking him out and stabilizing the building. Once inside, the kingpin offers free rent for life to anyone that takes them out. The mission then becomes a fight for survival as the team tries to escape the building alive.
The best part?: They get that shit out of the way within 10 minutes. There's nothing but action after that point and this has to have been one of the best pure guy films I have ever seen. I can overlook the so-so ending, because the start to finish action easily overshadows it.
The Raid: Redemption is currently getting a limited run in theaters, and by the time you read this, it may be over. If you should happen to come across it, know that it is highly recommend it.
Here's the trailer if you haven't yet seen it:
**(BTW it is subtitled.)**

Nudity? No
