At first glance, a new Malaysian martial arts film called Lari appears to be knockoff of The Raid. Whether it was intentional or not, the film’s poster features Aaron Aziz in SWAT-style clothing, similar to what Iko Uwais wears in The Raid, which happens to be the most influential action film of the last 15 years.
