    Keeps us fully engaged.

    There is never a dull moment in this movie, except for maybe that one song sequence. This manages to make us feel convinced that this is how cyber police in Kerala works. We don't feel like any tech stuff they show is out of place. That is all one needs to ask from such a movie. When most movies show tech stuff in an incorrect way, this is breath of fresh air. It feels grounded in reality.

    At times it resembled Action Hero Biju. They have stitched together the investigation of several unrelated cyber crime cases in a seamless manner. It's told through the eyes of the two heroes. The story progresses through their viewpoint.

    The script doesn't lag anywhere. The comic relief we get is not at all forced and feels very organic.

    The acting is very good. There is no one who did their part in a bad way.

    The art, costumes, editing departments too did a commendable job.

    The only problem I found was that there was a bit too much of melodrama in it. The heroes always seem like they are not at all happy about what they got.

    If you want to watch an entertaining film which doesn't have any dull moment in it, go for this.

    Fast. Fun. Fantabulous.

    "Operation Java" shows us the routine mode of operation of Kerala cybercell through the eyes of 2 newly joined technical assistants.

    This film itself is based on true crime investigations conducted by cybercell.

    Debutant writer- director Tharun Moorthy did a fantastic job in keeping viewers engaged with fast paced screenplay and interesting plot points.

    Jakes Bejoy adds to the momentum of film with his apt music scores that.

    Film ends with a promise of a continuation.

    A brilliant, realistic crime thriller based on true events!

    #MovieReview #OperationJava #SpoilerFree

    Director Tharun Moorthy has delivered Malayalam's best crime thriller since Anjaam Paathira, effectively blending together three slice-of-life police investigations to deliver a stylish end product.

    Lookman and Balu Varghese star as a duo of down-on-their-luck engineering grads who land a temporary internship with the Police Cyber cell using their wit and tenacity.

    Their efforts in unravelling a set of cunning online crimes and financial frauds form the rest of the story and the fact that these are inspired by real events adds further sheen.

    The director's dedication to portray the story in as realistic a manner as possible is what makes Operation Java such an excellent watch.

    Highly recommended.

    Scripting Excellent. Making it's a step ahead.

    Even before its release, the film made a huge splash with trailers, teasers in YouTube!

    The film tells the story of Anthony George and Vinayak Das, who go from Salem to become courier boys and food delivery boys without getting a permanent job after engineering.

    Balu Varghese and Lukman Avaran are the B Tech cyber youngsters in the lead role. Lukman takes the field to another level with his eloquence in a crucial scene that presents an emotional storyline through dialogue.

    But the film does not revolve around them, it goes completely through the script and the making.

    The film begins with Alphonse's son's 'Premam' becoming a huge success and its censor copy being leaked on the internet.

    Antony and Vinayak Das are approaching SHO Prathap of the Cyber Wing in Kochi with the conclusion that the route found by the police is not behind it.

    The first part of Java is that the inspector, impressed by these guys ability, conducts the investigation the way they say.

    The film falls on track from the very first frame as it is an investigation of an incident that is familiar and interesting to the Malayalee.

    Gathering the audience as well. Java can be used from the beginning to create the impression that it can do justice to the hype received online

    Realistic and smart cyber police operations make the film worthwhile.

    The director manages to keep the audience curious throughout the operation. Nowhere does it seem like the work of a newcomer, says Tarun Murthy.

    Scripting Excellent. Making it's a step ahead.

    You can feel the exact homework behind it on the screen.

    Operation Java is another film in which a talented director emphasizes that, actors are not an essential element.

    As mentioned earlier, it is not the path of these two that is advancing in the investigative paths of cyber policing.

    Irshad has the full versatility of a cyber-wing station head. Binu Pappu and Prashant Alexander performed well.

    Operation Java came to an unexpected end.

    The compulsion to be realistic keeps the dramatic expectations of the traditional audience at bay.

    The film ends with the submission of millions of temporary / contract basic / daily wage employees in the Kingdom of India.

    A dedication that hooks somewhere inside.
