About the Movie:

The Raid 2: Berandal 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, Julie Estelle, Yayan Ruhian and Cecep Arif Rahman. The story is about a special forces officer Rama (Iko Uwais) who 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.

About Hammer Girl (Source Wikia)

Alicia, better known as Hammer Girl (portrayed by Julie Estelle), is a supporting antagonist in The Raid 2. She is a deaf-mute assassin who is often accompanied by her brother Baseball Bat Man. Her left eye is ruined and she has a large scar over where it should be. She wears sunglasses to hide this.

Fun Trivia (source IMDB):

Julie Estelle had zero background in martial arts and she had to learn Silat from basic for 6 months before she started shooting her fight scenes.

According to Gareth Evans, the idea of "Hammer Girl" came to him from his first feature film, Merantau, where one of the silat styles featured is called "tiger style" because the hits are made with the palm of a hand while the fingers are kept in a claw-like position. Evans wanted an "extension" of the tiger style where a weapon would be used, and the only weapon he could think of was a claw hammer.

Although The Raid 2 uses a native fighting style of Indonesia called Pencak Silat, the martial arts share similar roots to the Filipino Marital Arts of Kali in which Logan is an expert of.
