Antarjal Movie Review: There was no such movie in Bangladesh before!

 

Suddenly, an international hacker group attacked the server of Green Bangla Bank, all transactions were stopped. Millions of people's money are stuck there, but no one can access the server. The hacker's demand is only one, to find PLS-71. It should be handed over to him. What is this pls 71? Why do they need hackers so much, that a country's banking system had to be hacked! Is this where the hacker claims end, or is it just the beginning? Is it eyewash or is the goal something big? What exactly is Antarjal-21? What are the interests of Bangladesh involved with this mega project? Why did Maria Hacker take over this project?

The story of Antarjal can be told in many ways. Just as the story can be portrayed as an all-Bangladesh war against a group of hackers, Antarjal can also be portrayed as a villain's journey. The villain who wants to ax Bangladesh's dream project is called Antarjal-21, sometimes by trickery. Attack-counter-attack makes this fight very enjoyable.

Dipankar Dipon means a grand event, a glitzy affair, no compromise with the budget, and no excess of spice in the story - this flavor was maintained in Antarjal. The surprise he gave to the story at the last moment will be remembered for a long time. He tells a story of modern times simply. Thriller The movie moves slowly at times due to plot or character buildup, but Dipankar Dipon never lets the focus shift from the main story.

Siam Ahmed played the role of a programmer, he carried the mood of his character in everything. The trauma of the past that still haunts him is portrayed brilliantly by Siam Ahmed. Although his pairing with Sunehra Tasnim didn't get much space, it was nice to see the two together. Abm Sumon's presence was great, Bidya Sinha Saha did justice to her character. Well done Mashrur Enan popularly known as Keto bhai. The audience will surely get that surprise if they go to the cinema hall and watch Antarjal.

The work of VFX is quite good in some places and weak in some places. The product placement also felt unwanted in some places, the product has been nicely mixed with the screenplay. But Dipankar Dipon started a new trend in Bangladeshi cinema with 'Antarjal'. Bangladesh has never seen such a brilliant movie exploring the dark world of cybercrime, the dark web, Antarjal. 'Antarjal' will surely set a precedent for all other movies in trying to make complex issues simple.
