The Raid (released as The Raid: Redemption in the United States) is a 2011 Indonesian action thriller film written, edited, and directed by Welsh filmmaker Gareth Evans. The film stars Iko Uwais, Joe Taslim, Donny Alamsyah, Ray Sahetapy and Yayan Ruhian. The story follows an Indonesian National Police tactical squad that is deployed to raid a ruthless drug lord's apartment block in the slums of Jakarta, only to be encircled by the criminals, forcing them to fight their way through the complex. After its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), The Raid received positive reviews from critics, who praised its cinematography, soundtrack and action sequences. The subtitle Redemption was added in the United States as distributor Sony Pictures Classics could not secure the rights to the title; it also allowed Evans to plan out future titles in the series.

How to watch it together from different places
Each of you opens The Raid on your own account. Herae keeps the two players in sync, so a pause or a skip happens for both of you, and puts a video call in the corner of the film so you can see each other react.
