The main problem with Raid is that from the trailer itself you know the whole story of the film and for the most part, it's a film that has been seen in Indian films way too many times. But the making is better than most of the previous iterations of the story in a way that it skips a lot of mandatory checkboxes and just barely satisfies some of them for a popular Bollywood film format for becoming a genre film. There are some very good moments in between too, but it soon becomes repetitive and there is no real tension because anyone can predict the next scene if they are familiar with some of the Indian political crome films and the film never tries anything new.
