Jakarta (2000)
Entertaining and full of surprises
6 November 2012 - 2 out of 2 users found this review helpful.
This heist movie is easy to follow and yet full of creatively arranged surprises. It is also very funny and gets more and more entertaining until the end. Watching it till the half, you may think you know the story but then the movie uses flashbacks that nicely reveals the twists in the real story. Some parts of the movie are violent but they are made up for later on when you start to understand the story. The title has nothing to do with the Indonesian capital city of Jakarta. At least, not until almost the end of the movie. I watched it three times (despite that I am not a movie addict and hardly watch any movie another time) and still got surprised here and there and got to laugh many times!
