"A longer, slower, more expansive sequel that nevertheless delivers deep, bone-crunching pleasure for hardcore genre fans." 

"Only viewers with zero appreciation for the genre will leave unimpressed; devotees should add approximately six stars to the rating above. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)" 

"Neither its undercover drama nor its two-and-a-half-hour length bog down the bracing, and numerous, fight fests." 

"'The Raid 2' lets its warriors rip for two and a half thrilling hours. With the precision of dance and the punch of a KO champion, Evans keeps the action coming like nobody's business. The wow factor is off the charts. (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)" 

"'The Raid 2' flails for too long, but it does, eventually, make contact. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of five)" 

"That rare sequel that expands the scope of its predecessor to produce something grander, richer and far more rewarding, 'The Raid 2' elevates the franchise (...) into a full-blown crime epic."
