Operation Finale

As Summer ends, one of the most intense post-war setting flicks comes in as the film about a 1960's operation to track down the last of the Nazis by Israeli agents has arrived and Operation Finale is one of the biggest upsets in cinemas before summer ends that lets its espionage suspense boils hotter than the pages of history.

Operation Finale

Starring Ben Kingsley and Oscar Isaac, among many others, and directed by Chris Weitz from a screenplay by Matthew Orton, this gripping espionage thriller re-enacts the operation where a Mossad agent named Peter Malkin is on the hunt on a living Nazi named Adolf Eichmann, who's responsible for the transportation logistics that killed millions of Jews in concentration camps during the Second World War.

Set in Argentina, just like how the operation goes, and packed with usual espionage cliches such as recon, fake passports, and escapes, Operation Finale can really glue moviegoers with its dramatic suspense that will keep them hanging from start to finish, guessing what comes next in this intense reenactment of a top-secret post-war mission that you won't find in the pages of the history books, well almost.

By observing dramatic performances by the cast themselves, including the main ones, Operation Finale satisfies what a gripping espionage flick delivers while delivering the emotion, the power, the dynamism, and the flavor that portrays just how relevant movies like these are in the real world and while the judgment is up to the tongues of moviegoers, there's so much to talk about the viscosity of this spy flick and the dark appeal it delivers.

My rating: 3.9 out of 5.
