The Night Comes for Us is a 2018 Indonesian action thriller film written and directed by Timo Tjahjanto (id). It was originally conceived as a screenplay and then adapted into a graphic novel, before finally being released as a film. In December 2014, Tjahjanto confirmed he was working with Indonesian artist hub Glitch Network to adapt his original screenplay into comic form. The film stars Iko Uwais, Joe Taslim, Julie Estelle, Sunny Pang, Zack Lee and Shareefa Daanish. The film was released to positive reviews, with critics praising the action and Uwais, Estelle and Taslim's performances, although the excessive violence was criticized.

The film premiered at Fantastic Fest on 22 September 2018.[4] Four days later, it was announced that Netflix had acquired the distribution rights, and was released worldwide on 19 October 2018.

This movie is awesome. Not as good as the Raid films from a story structured stand point, but the action sequences are amazingly brutal and very bloody and the pacing is relentless. If your a fan of those movies this is definitely one for you.

B+

While at times I thought the gore was too over-the-top, this is a mostly great exercise in highly creative ultraviolence. The plot about fighting your crime family to save an innocent has been done a million times, most notably in Headshot. But they still do a good job making everyone likeable or hateable enough to care.
