A rookie member of an elite team of commandos, Rama (Iko Uwais), is instructed to hang back while his comrades-in-arms go ahead with their mission to take down a brutal crime lord called Tama (Ray Sahetapy). However, the team’s cover is blown, and Tama offers sanctuary to every criminal in his high-rise apartment block in exchange for the cops’ heads. Now Rama must take command and lead his remaining team on an ultraviolent charge through the building to complete — and survive — the mission.

Did you know?
- Despite the fact that the movie’s tagline mentions “30 floors of chaos,” the apartment building in the movie only features 14 floors, 15 if you count the ground floor.
- Lighting in this film was very difficult, since in several sequences, the camera turns 180 degrees around and moves around the room. To supplement this, production crews used lights on long poles and constantly moved with the camera.
- The original title Serbuan Maut means “Death Raid” in English.
