After this there are some interesting twists in the story, to know about which you have to watch the series.
acting
KK As always, Menon fits his character perfectly. His screen presence, dialogue delivery and expressions are as strong as ever. Karan Thacker (Farooq), Vinay Pathak (Abbas), Sayami Kher (Juhi) and Meher Vij (Rouhani) also do a good job, but this time some characters seem to have been added just to fill the screen. Prakash Raj and Tahir Raj Bhasin certainly bring some freshness, but their characters don’t get as much depth as they should have.
Features
-KK Menon’s performance is the lifeblood of this series.
-The topic of cyber terrorism is relevant to today’s era and the audience will be able to relate to it easily.
-Some episodes show good cinematography and production values.
Weaknesses
-The biggest problem is that there is nothing new in the series. Same old formula: there’s the enemy, there’s the Raw team and then there’s the mission rush.
-There is a lack of suspense in the climax. The story doesn’t reach the level it should have.
-Scenes are drawn at several places, which neither move the story forward nor leave any impact.
-After a point the series seems predictable.
See or not?
If you have seen ‘Special Ops 1’ and ‘1.5’ and you know that K.K. If you are a fan of Menon then you can watch this series once. But if you sit down expecting a great thriller and a powerful climax, you may be disappointed.
