Golpe en Java

A Muslim detective teams with an American (Kellan Lutz) posing as a graduate student to find the man (Mickey Rourke) behind a series of deadly terrorist bombings in Indonesia.

Although this seems in some ways to be an inferior-grade "Bourne" film, it has plenty to offer: a fresh lead actor, a great villain (Rourke, as a "klepto-terrorist") and all the action you expect from such a film -- explosions, gun fights and car crashes.

My biggest issues were not really with the film itself (which I thought was pretty good), but more technical matters. The DVD/BD seems to have not had the volume synced properly (conversations are too quiet, action too loud) and the subtitles are hard to read -- both because they are small, and also because they leave the screen too quickly. I would have enjoyed the film much more if these problems were corrected.

To start with, a very well sorted plot, story and good screenplay. The movie keeps getting you interested even in some dull scenes. Overall a very well written script and screenplay….good acting by Ario Bayu…I thought he did an excellent job in this movie.

Yeah…action is missing in some scenes but there is enough to enjoy !!… would have been a great movie if there were some more action packed scenes. I don't want to take away the credit from the director….he did a nice job but he could have done better with all the ingredients he had (plot, story, actors and locations)….nevertheless decent action flick.

Recommended from my side :-)

Another movie from far east, Indonesia.

Clearly this is an action movie, if you like action, this movie could be your weekend options. Quite entertaining. A lot of action in there.

Tells the story of a special forces anti-terrorism cooperation with an American citizen solving terrorism cases.

Speaking of the actors may not be so well known, but their acting is quite good.

In the end, the film is worth watching. presents the story from the largest Muslim country in the world. Where many terrorists were arrested and prosecuted.

From 1 to 10 I give 6.5

A swaggering American and a tough Muslim cop team-up to stop a ruthless terrorist in this action-packed thriller starring Kellan Lutz (Twilight) and Academy Award-nominee Mickey Rourke. A suicide bombing in Indonesia has left the Sultana dead, and American FBI Agent Jake Travers (Lutz)) was the last person to speak with her before the attack took place. Determined to bring her killer to justice, Jake teams up with Muslim detective Hashim ({$Ario Bayu) to track down the mastermind of the operation, an opportunistic terrorist named Malik (Rourke) with close ties to Jihadist terrorists. Now, in the world's largest Muslim country, two unlikely partners will forge a fragile alliance in a bid to prevent Malik from pulling off the biggest heist of his career. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi. interesting story but poor direction.need more action scenes

Watchable for the Exotic Location Filming and some Violent Action Pieces, this STV Movie is a bit Different, owing to its Setting. Mickey Rourke was Unadvisedly and for no Good Reason given a thick French Accent. Another slight Setback is the Totally Uncharismatic Lead Actor that is all Buff and not much Else.

The Actor Playing the Local Cop comes off much Better. The Story is Forever Confusing and Keeping Things in some kind of Make Sense Order is a bit Difficult. But Action Fans are Forgiving in this Type of Thing and may find it a Satisfying Shoot Em Up.

The Look of the Movie is Great, so for some Foreign Land Eye Candy with Fantastic Costumes, and some Truly Violent Action this is Worth a Watch.
