History Film / TheRaid2Berandal

* AntiHero: Rama and Bunawar.

* BloodierAndGorier: The film has much more blood spilled than the first film, especially during the fight fight where karambits are used to splatter blood everywhere.

* BreakThemByTalking: The karaoke hostess's insult really pisses Uco off.
* BiggerIsBetter: Many feel that Berandal is this to the first movie, even though some critics disagree.

* TheMole: Rama becomes this to expose the corruption rampant in the city.

* NonActionBigBad: Bejo, whose only chance of getting to kill someone is when he was about to execute Eka. [[spoiler:Thankfully, Rama prevents him from doing so.]]

* BoomHeadshot: How [[spoiler: Bangun, Andi, and more importantly, Bejo, meet their ends.]]

* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: Eka's attempt to rescue Rama after being shot in the leg result on his death caused by taking a shotgun blast to the side in the car chase.]]
* HeKnowsTooMuch: [[spoiler: Bunawar's reason to kill Wahyu]]

* ImprovFu: Rama can combine his pencak silat skill with his environment.
* {{Jerkass}}: Uco, who doesn't take kindly to people insulting him

* GoodScarsBadScars: Rama has a scar on his cheek from being cut in the previous movie. [[spoiler:Hammer Girl's right eye is terribly scarred, forcing her to wear sunglasses to cover it up.]]

* QuirkyMinibossSquad: Bejo's three assassins. At least two are quirky, the other is TheVoiceless.
* RatedMForManly: Compared to the first movie, it's doubled then boosted up to eleven.

* RasputinianDeath: [[spoiler: The Assassin.]] After all, a prolonged fight scene with Rama tends to have this affect on people.

* RuleOfCool
* RedShirt: Anyone nameless goon that meets Rama is destined to become this trope.
* RuggedScar: Rama has a scar on his face from the first movie -- and he's as Badass as they get.

* ReverseMole: Rama.
* SacrificialLion: [[spoiler: Prakoso is trapped by Uco and murdered so Uco can frame the Goto Family for it in order to start a war.]]

* SelfImposedChallenge: Prakoso picks up his machete and then fights his way through a horde of bodyguards -- without using the machete, instead just fighting one-handed.
* SequelEscalation: The action is everything you love from the first movie and then some.
** The very first shot of the film is a far wider visual than anything from the first film.

* The Speechless: Hammer Girl.

* SnowMeansDeath: [[spoiler: Prakoso]] dies under the falling snow... [[ArtisticLicenseGeography in Jakarta]].

* SuddenSequelDeathSyndrome: [[spoiler:Andi]] is killed in the opening scene. [[spoiler:Wahyu]] is killed not long thereafter.
* SurveillanceAsThePlotDemands: Rama uses a stealth camera to [[spoiler: film Uco's alliance with Bejo.]]
* SwordDrag: It's not exactly a sword, but Baseball Bat Man does this.

* [[spoiler: UndercoverCopReveal: Eka.]]

* TheVoiceless: Hammer Girl is deaf and speaks in sign language. The Assassin simply doesn't like talking.

* TranquilFury: Rama at the end.

* WeaponOfChoice: Prakoso: Machete. The Assassin: A pair of karambits. Hammer Girl and Baseball Bat Man: Well, duh.
* WellDoneSonGuy: Uco deeply respects and admire his father and aspires to be like him. [[spoiler:When the old and weary Bangun doesn't act like his idealized version, Uco snaps.]]

* TheWorfEffect: [[spoiler: The Assassin kills Prakoso (who, aside from being played by Yayan Ruhian, had an early scene that served only to establish his badass credentials). Prakoso was mortally wounded, but still. The Assassin follows this up by knocking out Rama in their first fight.]]
** Bejo manages to [[spoiler:capture and kill Andi at the start of the film.]]
* WouldHitAGirl: Rama doesn't pull his punches against Hammer Girl. At all.

* YouLookFamiliar: Yayan Ruhian, who plays Prakoso, also played Mad Dog in the previous film.

* FanDisservice: The rape scene at the porn den is, to no one's surprise, unpleasant to look at.

* {{Foil}}: Everyone. Most notably, Uco and Goto's son are both heirs to major crime families, but with different temperaments. Bangun and Goto balance each other out, while Eka and Ryuchi fill similar Consiglere roles.
** Rama and the Assassin are both master silat fighters, work for ambitious crime middle bosses, and wear blue close-fitting jackets with short hair. Their fight reveals eerily similar symmetry. [[spoiler: Especially once Rama gets one of the Assassin's knives.]]

* FugitiveArc

* GoodIsNotSoft: Bunawar.

* GoryDiscretionShot: So much of this on the Indonesian version, considering Indonesia is a conservative religious country, LSI won't let overly gory scenes be shown.

* HumanShield: Prakoso’s first victim attempts to use his date as one. It doesn’t work.
* {{Hypocrite}}: [[spoiler:Uco keep telling his father how he was enraged at Prakoso's death, while in fact he's the one who set it up.]]

* ImprovisedWeapon: Rama uses the environment as this multiple times.
** One noticeable example is the broom handle he uses in the mud fight.
* ICanStillFight: [[spoiler: With all his injuries, Rama decides to infiltrate Bejo's hideout and miraculously win against everybody in it.]]
** [[spoiler:It's worth noting that Rama has at the start of the day been attacked by corrupt cops and takes, aside from punches, two nasty cuts to an arm and a leg. He barely has time to treat them before being called to Bangun's office, where he fights and is knocked out by the Assassin. He then fights four guys in the brutal car chase. It's only a few hours later that he launches his RoaringRampageOfRevenge, still injured. And then he keeps taking injuries as he progresses through Bejo's lair.]]
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Baseball Bat Man -- not everyone can hit baseballs hard enough to kill a man.

* InnocentBystander: Many fights take place in public.
* {{Jerkass}}: Uco.

* JustHitHim: Zigzagged, strikes and throws are both used, with neither being automatically better or worse.
* JitterCam
* KilledMidSentence: [[spoiler:Andi]]

* LetsFightLikeGentlemen: The Assassin has karambit (Indonesian traditional weapon) on his utility belt, but he chooses to fight Rama bare-handed. [[spoiler: Then subverted, he uses his karambit later after Rama starts to gain the advantage. Ironically, Rama manages to use his own weapon against him, which leads to his death.]]
* MacheteMayhem: Subverted in one fight -- even though Prakoso holds his machete all along he prefer to beat the target's goons with his [[SelfImposedChallenge empty hand]], using the machete only against the main target, by stabbing him through a wooden wall.

* MoreCriminalsThanTargets
* MenAreTheExpendableGender: [[spoiler: Hammer Girl is the only woman who loses her life in this movie.]]

** On a physical note, [[spoiler:dozens of men are sent to kill Prakoso]]. It mostly works. Barely.

* NervesOfSteel: Rama [[spoiler:managed to handle his brother's death, two years in prison, and becoming a mole Bangun's mob.]]

* OneRiotOneRanger: [[spoiler:Rama invades Bejo's lair alone and manages to defeat everyone!]]
* PhallicWeapon: A naked female assassin killed a corrupt cop with a giant dildo (this scene doesn't appear at the final edit).
* PosthumousCharacter: Jaka and all of his squad (except Bowo and Rama) appears as dead bodies stacked in the police van.

* PunchCatch: Done multiple times.
** PunchParry

!Tropes:

* AnyoneCanDie:[[spoiler: And how. They started the movie by killing Rama's brother, and most of the main cast is dead by the end of it.]]

* ArtisticLicenseGeography: The only snow-covered location in Indonesia is Puncak Jaya mountain. There are a lot of Indonesian viewers who laughed at the "snow in Jakarta" scene.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Averted. Bejo, Goto, Bangun, Bunawar, and Reza are all powerful, but [[spoiler: Bangun, Reza, and Bejo are easily killed, while Bunawar and Goto have no fight scenes at all in this movie.]]

* CarFu: In the car chase, as well as when Rama [[spoiler: launches his assault on Bejo's restaurant.]]
* TheCameo: [[spoiler:Pong Harjatmo as Reza's supervisor.]]

* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: Throughout the movie, [[spoiler: Uco betrays his father's most faithful henchman, his own father, and his fellow conspirator, Bejo. He does all that in the name of ambition.]]

* FallenHero: [[spoiler: Eka]]

* FatalFamilyPhoto:[[spoiler: Prakoso's photo of his son.]]

* OddlyNamedSequel
** Unless you understand Indonesian.

* [[spoiler: SuddenSequelDeathSyndrome: Andi is killed by Bejo at the start, for unknown reasons, motivating Rama to go undercover.]]
** [[spoiler: Wahyu as well.]]

In Indonesia, this movie has a tight commercial rivalry against another Indonesian film named ''Film/{{Comic 8}}''.

* HeroesFightBarehanded: Most noticeable example is Rama, other characters often use melee weapons, or, though not as prevalent, guns.

* MenAreTheExpendableGender: [[spoiler: Hammer Girl is the only woman who loses her life in this movie.]] That said, aside from her there are only four female speaking roles; of these, three are sex workers and the fourth is Rama's wife.

* AmbitionIsEvil: The MobWar is instigated by Bejo, a young gangster who is trying to take over his father's organization.

* AbusiveParents: [[spoiler: Alicia]] (A.K.A Hammer Girl) and Baseball Bat Man's parents. A detail which is only revealed in their [[AllThereInTheManual off-screen background]].

* HolyShitQuotient

* AdaptationExpansion: Originally, Gareth Evans wrote Berandal to be a prison epic. He couldn't get the funding for it, so he made the smaller-scale TheRaid. Here, the prison epic is only a minor part of a bigger film.

* BreakThembyTalking: The karaoke hostess's insult really pisses Uco off.
* BiggerIsBetter: Many feel that Berandal is this to the first movie, even though some critics say the first movie is better because Berandal is just "too long" and doesn't have the "surrounded" feeling the first movie gave us.

* BreakThembyTalking: The Karaoke hostess's insult really pisses Uco off.

** "Yuda" is used as Rama's undercover name. [[spoiler: Remember Merantau's main character played by Iko Uwais? Yuda]]

* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Rama, Prakoso and the Assassin. They all have superhuman durability from exercise.

* CoversAlwaysLie: See the picture up there? Even though they stand on the same ground, they are placed on FOUR different sides! (Rama And Bunawar: Cops) (Goto, Keiichi, Ryuuichi: Goto's Mob)(Bangun, Eka, Uco, Prakoso: Bangun's Mob [[spoiler: Eka is formerly a cop, and Uco later betrays Bangun and join Bejo.]] (Bejo, Hammer Girl, Baseball Bat Man, the Assassin: Bejo's Mob)

** Uco doesn't hold in his anger when his Karaoke hostesses insult him.

** [[spoilerIt's worth noting that Rama has at the start of the day been attacked by corrupt cops and takes, aside from punches, two nasty cuts to an arm and a leg. He barely has time to treat them before being called to Bangun's office, where he fights and is knocked out by the Assassin. He then fights four guys in the brutal car chase. It's only a few hours later that he launches his RoaringRampageOfRevenge, still injured. And then he keeps taking injuries as he progresses through Bejo's lair.]]

* BolivianArmyEnding: Rama, facing the Yakuza. “No, I’m done.”

* [[spoiler:BolivianArmyEnding/NoEnding: The ending shows Rama bleeding from multiple wounds, standing opposite the Japanese mob, and saying, "Enough".]]

A sequel of 2011's Indonesian martial arts action movie, ''Film/TheRaid'', ''The Raid 2: Berandal'' (meaning "Thug") was released worldwide at the end of March 2014. The film follows the main character's journey right after the end of the first movie. This movie was originally Director Gareth Evans' dream project before budget limitations forced him to create a simpler movie.

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: [[spoiler: all three of Bejo's assassins are killed with their own weapons.]]

** One noticeable example is the broomhandle he uses in the mud fight.

* RedShirt: Anyone without a name who meets Rama is destined to become this trope.

** In prison, Rama wears a jumpsuit with the designation [[Film/{{Versus}} KSC2-303]].

* TakeThat: [[spoiler:Uco's "Speaking with their language in our own country" speech, an obvious metaphor to Indonesia's war of independence against Japan back in 1942 to 1945.]]
** [[spoiler:Uco's "Giving money and crotches to politicians make them shut up" speech, a criticism of Indonesia's severe amount of political corruption nowadays.]]

* TelevisionGeography: The chase scene started in Senayan in South Jakarta, then they teleported to SCBD (around 10 minutes drive from Senayan) the next shot, and then Kemayoran (North Jakarta), then back to SCBD.
* TokenWhite: Zack Lee as Benny.

* UndyingLoyalty: Prakoso, he served Bangun for thirty years [[spoiler:and was still fighting for him until his death at the hands of the Assassin.]]
** He is also loyal to his family.

* XMeetsY: It's Film/RedHarvest/Film/{{Yojimbo}}/Film/AFistfulOfDollars meets Film/TheRaid meets Film/InfernalAffairs/Film/{{Scarface}}.

** BadassDriver: Eka, Bejo's men count too.

** CulturedBadass: The Assassin, who uses an Indonesian weapon called a kerambit.

* CurbStompBattle: [[spoiler: The Assassin killing the already-wounded Prakoso easily with his kerambits]]

* LetsFightLikeGentlemen: The Assassin has kerambit (Indonesian traditional weapon) on his utility belt, but he chooses to fight Rama bare-handed. [[spoiler: Then subverted, he uses his kerambit later after Rama starts to gain the advantage. Ironically, Rama manages to use his own weapon against him, which leads to his death.]]

* WeaponOfChoice: Prakoso: Machete. The Assassin: A pair of kerambits. Hammer Girl and Baseball Bat Man: Well, duh.

** Very Tri Yulisman, who plays Baseball Bat Man, also played one of Tama's Drug's Lab Guard in the previous film.

* CIAEvilFBIGood: Although neither the CIA or the FBI appear in this movie, the Indonesian cop structure on this movie is likely like this. The lower grades of cops are affably "good" guys while the authorities (Like Wahyu and Reza) are the bad ones.

* EstablishingCharacterMoment: [[spoiler: The moment Bejo kills Andi describes how bad he is.]]

* DieHardOnAnX: Die Hard with more crime drama and Tarantino elements.

* ArtisticLicenseLaw: Indonesian law is actually tighter than what this movie depicts, considering Indonesia is a conservative country.
