The Raid 2 ( ; ) is a 2014 Indonesian action crime film written, directed and edited by the Welsh filmmaker Gareth Evans. It is the sequel to the 2011 film The Raid and stars Iko Uwais, Arifin Putra, Oka Antara, Tio Pakusadewo, Alex Abbad, Julie Estelle, Ryuhei Matsuda, Kenichi Endō, and Kazuki Kitamura. The film was released in the United States and Canada by Sony Pictures Classics on 28 March 2014.

In the story, special forces officer Rama is sent undercover to expose the corrupt police officials colluding with the crime families of Jakarta's criminal underworld. Like Evans' previous films Merantau and The Raid, the fight scenes showcase the Indonesian fighting style of pencak silat.

Two hours after the events of the first film, the surviving officers of the Jakarta apartment raid - Rama, Bowo and an arrested Lieutenant Wahyu - rendezvous with Lieutenant Bunawar on the advice of Rama's brother Andi. Bunawar, the head of an internal investigation unit, sends the injured Bowo for treatment but executes Wahyu, assuring Rama it is to protect him from crooked cops like Wahyu; Bunawar also tells Rama that courts cannot fix the problem and that testifying would only endanger him and his family. Bunawar asks Rama to go undercover to expose the other corrupt officials' dealings with the Bangun and Goto crime syndicates; Rama refuses.

After Rama's son is born, rising crime boss Bejo executes Andi, who had taken over his gang after the death of his former boss Tama. Following Andi's funeral, Rama agrees to go undercover and is tasked with infiltrating the underworld by going to prison for "a few months" to befriend Bangun's son Uco. Using the alias 'Yuda', Rama is ordered to assault the son of the politician responsible for putting Uco in prison. During a prison riot a year into Uco's term, several inmates led by Benny, an inmate who betrayed Uco's trust, attempt to kill him before Rama saves him. Upon Rama's release two years later, Uco takes him to meet his father, who hires him out of gratitude. Rama proves his value to the family through his work under Uco and his father's consigliere Eka.
