that's because Gareth Evans is the key to the RAID being sick like that, mixed with iko kuwais choreagraphy, But really it's Gareth's direction and camera work.
He REALLY needs to direct more films, or Hollywood should REALLLY being giving him more looks. He was supposed to direct a DEATHSTROKE movie but it fukking got cancelled. Can you imagine the raid director doing a DC or Marvel film? it would literally blow up and save the action/blockbuster film industry.
Here's a short film he made also, crazy that he's a white boy
also his early film with IKO, merantau
But he has a film coming out called "Havoc " also...so crossing fingers
