A brilliant film that helped define a genre

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Clever link to our world. Key civilization points to mention. But i should say that this movie is for Turkish People. Only people who know Turkish culture and lifestyle can understand many parts of the film... Cem YILMAZ is really good at stand-ups. But cinema world is different. Some can except the same style here. This is a movie which has a theme and an event flow. Satiristic pieces must have their own suitable places in it otherwise it goes bad. In my opinion the movie is good. maybe not extraordinary successful but still very nice to watch. When i started to watch it i was caught by it to the end. Indeed i waited a better final which i couldn't find. It seemed to me a part of series...

Cem Yilmaz, who is the funniest man of Turkiye, has broke another record with this film (with its hilarious and creative scenes of course). Unfortunately, for non-Turkish ppl, like most (even all) of Turkish films, many humours in these scenes were lost, since mostly attributions are about a life of a very classical and easterner Turkish person and his comments about Turkish social, political and cultural life. You will also childish joke scenes which I also didn't enjoy, too. I don't know, but, this must be his way of filming, on the contrary, his shows never make concessions about quality.Another subject is don't expect a great visual scenes, as this is not a Hollywood film which one of the richest governments in the world supports financially, on the other hand, this is just a Turkish film (not the best one) which a company accepted to be the sponsor of limitedly.Nevertheless, don't get disappointed yet. The film is more than 2 hours and each 5 minutes include at least one thing to laugh(for all). Well, this is no different indeed for non-Turkish speakers to watch this film or for me to watch "how i met your mother" episodes. I find "how i met your mother" as the funniest show ever, but, sometimes there are a few jokes American-ish. So I think it will mostly make you laugh, while it is important to watch it with a valid subtitle to understand every single joke, as this movie was filmed mostly to make people laugh.Such a very small explanation for non-Turkish speakers; Ridvan Dilmen is a commentator (and an old footballer) who seems in late minutes in the film. In Turkish matches, whenever he says "it's a goal", well, there the shot then and it is. (damn! he is like a seer!) Well, he was not really the person who we expect to see in that scene all of a sudden.Oh, I'd almost forget! Have I told you what record Cem Yilmaz broke with this movie? His first film, GORA, had been watched by about 1 million people in three days in Turkiye. Now, this is the third day and I think for AROG, this number has already rised up and still is rising...

Arog is by far the worst movie that Cem Yilmaz has ever made. He used a simple plot, amateur actors like in all his other movies. But unlike others, he could not get a warm, entertaining movie. There were not big laughs in any of the jokes which were mostly about Turkish idioms. The plot was boring, I counted minutes towards the end. Lot's of money spent and they used the technology right. However, if the story is bad and the jokes are bad, this cannot help the movie out.I feel that Cem is not very funny any more. He should spend more time to find jokes and construct a movie. Writing a script in a short time is not working out for him any more.

Cem Yilmaz did it again. A film that would be another blockbuster but has nothing to do with cinema. This movie could be funny for only a limited group of audience who should first be Turkish and secondly be around the same age with Cem Yilmaz. There are good jokes for those people but the structure and pace are not satisfactory. Script for other characters than CY is awful. He deliberately under weighs other characters and pampers his ego like he did in each and every movie he made. Acting is poor by most of the characters. References to other movies are as stale and at the level of Scary Movie series. After three attempts(Gora, Hokkabaz and Arog) unfortunately no progress for CY.
