'The Raid' to attack the UK

Here's some news that I am sure all movie fans will be happy to see, and that is the Blu-ray and DVD release of The Raid, in the UK. Momentum Pictures will be releasing the action flick on September 24th on Blu-ray, DVD and Steelbook Blu-ray, with none of that Redemption malarkey, from the looks of it! This release features a ton of extras, which I have listed below, and includes a UK exclusive director's commentary.

Deep in the heart of one of Jakarta’s most deprived slums stands an impenetrable high-rise apartment block. To most it is 30 floors of Hell to be avoided at all cost but for many of the city’s most dangerous killers and gangsters, including the area’s most notorious crime lord, it is a fortress-like safe house protecting them from the law. Even for the bravest and most experienced police officers it is considered a no-go area.
In a desperate bid to flush these violent criminals and their leader from their haven once and for all, an elite SWAT team is tasked with infiltrating the building and raiding the apartments floor by floor, taking out anyone who stands in their way. Cloaked under the cover of pre-dawn darkness, the SWAT members make their move and enter the block not realizing that this is the easier part of the mission. Once inside, it soon becomes terrifyingly apparent that the real problem at hand is surviving long enough to be able to get out again.
