Operation 021 comes as a pleasant audio-visual treat.#O21 is not for those who keep their brains at home when they come to a movie theater.Half of the people will not like it, whereas the other half will simply love it. Luckily I am from the second half.Story & Direction: It is not the usual "find the chip flick" but instead it intelligently highlights the intricacies of Geo-political scene of the region.Jami does a great job in handling the script crisply & keeps you guessing at all times. The movie is visually stunning, just a shade darker for my liking.Music Score: No songs, yes NO songs. Yet the movie has background music for at least 90% of the time. The music score gels in superbly and builds to the feel of the movie.#O21 is not a spoon feeder and requires your complete attention throughout.The Pakistani Cinema is evolving and this educating masterpiece by Jami is even better than many much-hyped Hollywood flicks.A MUST watch for the learned ! Awaiting its International release.

Watched movie yesterday and i'm completely blown away by its brilliance. From direction to execution of scenes, the mastered background music, dialogues specially between Joe Towne and Hameed Sheikh, the chemistry of Shaan and Amina, all done in an amazing way. The CIA part has its positives to add to the story as it proceeded further. Though the audio glitches at some points were a bit surprise but they did not affect the entire experience and were easily ignorable. First half was a bit slow but it was to be expected from a spy thriller as in this genre you cannot show the thrills and fights in the very beginning. As the story built itself further, more interesting it became to watch. The cinematography, superb acting and fantastic background score made it a fabulous watch. This film is undoubtedly a benchmark set for Pakistani cinema which is going through a rebirth process right from its ashes. Yes! Its for those people out there who have got brains and a real taste for movies. Its not lite but its lovely, its not your ordinary film but immersive. It takes you with it if you are following every scene and if you know what you are watching. Hats off to Jami, Azaan, Zeba Ji and the entire team for this fantastic movie. I loved it and may I say, I will be watching it again. Love

Undoubtedly a great movie, by saying this I mean the place from which they took the banner of Pak file industry was in abyss. And the message of this film was patriotism thas what we need in this hour of time . A change of strategy from nudity , glamour towards patriotic and the challenges being foreseen . After all seeing this movie one can say we Hav the capability and he road all we need is will power and yes we can beat them all . God speed team O21 and keep doing the good job .We And we are proud of you .You just need to focus on la Guage as mostly the people seeing the.movie cudnt understand it as major portion was in English . Instead team should rely more on English subtitles so that it's well understood and the message of the movie is well received.

Techincally -very smart production and direction Cinematography-well done So glad to see some quality work has been started in Pakistan , Script- well im sorry , why ? While watching such movies you cant let your brain ignore the ground realities and facts, as they have shown the very recent times in the movie on that basis we cant forget that agencies doesn't work in sucn improfession manner , and i don't know why people making it sound so different that there are no songs and any bollywood touch in it , i guess pakistani audience really appreciated movies like waar in which there were no songs as well neither any commercial entertaining touch, and film started with a different message and ended with a different ... Well i do understand most of the viewers do not have the understanding of quality direction , every movie has its own genre .. But a good director can make even depressive stressed out topics in such a way that till the last moment he can keep the attention of its viewer .its definitely not the movie for mainstream cinema , with a lot of flaws in script and stretched time lapse , its still goood effort ... P.s shaan ans shamoon needs to get out of their comfort zone and do dare to sign more challening characters.
