Java Heat
2012, 103 min.
Writer/Director Conor Allyn,
returns to the Dallas International Film Festival with a smart
action-packed thriller set in the beautiful and sometimes dangerous
Indonesian island of Java.
Jake Travers (Kellan Lutz) is an American teacher’s assistant who survives a terrorist bomb that kills the daughter of the most powerful figure in the country. As a key witness, Jake is placed under the watchful eye of Indonesian policeman Hashim. In true buddy cop movie form, neither see eye-to-eye, but Jake has a secret and Hashim is determined to find it out and solve the case. The one thing standing in their way is cunning thief and crime boss, Malik (Mickey Rourke), who will do everything within his power to ensure that his master plan is carried out.
Part political thriller and part action drama, JAVA HEAT features dazzling action sequences, taught dialogue, a break out performance by Lutz and inspired villainous behavior from Rourke. It brings a new definition to the phrase “sweating bullets.”
Screenings
