The greatest movie ever made..!

Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Amateur movie with Big budget

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

OST album for this movie is one of the best albums ever made in Turkey, in my opinion. All tracks were made by Erkan Ogur, a Turkish musician playing many different instruments making Turkish folk music and Jazz. The tracks are very effective on the feelings given by movie when they are heard. I recommend this movie and the OST album to every single IMDb user, not only Turkish users but everyone from the world.Unfortunately, despite the awards the movie has taken, the movie wasn't watched by many people in Turkey. This is why I always think the movie has always been underrated. It tells about many different problems faced by Turkish people, so one could find something from himself on the movie. Even if that doesn't happen, you would put yourself in the shoes of the main characters and see how little things affect your whole fate.

This movie is far away from what we were used to in Turkish cinema. In fact, this picture has no hope whatsoever inside, and that kind of depresses you, besides a huge slap of reality. I think the movie is not made for criticizing anyone or anything, it is made to show how real, ordinary people are situated in our daily life. Contains black humor sometimes, it is dark and so real that it creeps you out. The acting is not even close to bad, actors have really got into their roles. And the directing is, a little new but better than I have expected. This movie is in the 1st rank in my favorite Turkish movies, and i think most of the people who watched it would agree with me

You should watch the beautiful cinematography in historical Cappadocia! Roy Kurtluyan has done a great job as director of photography on this part of the film! Keep up the good work Roy, we're proud of an Armenian cinematographer's great work in this controversial film! Yazi Tura has received 11 awards on Golden Orange (Altin Portakal) Film Festival in October 2004. Awards include: Best Film, Best Actor (Olgun Simsek), Best Director (Ugur Yucel), and many more.

Ugur Yucel,the giant movie star of Turkish cinema, is very successful in his directorial debut.In his movie,he has very impressively described the different and dramatical stories of two men who had been wounded in the war lasting for nearly 20 years at Southeast region of Turkey.This movie must be accepted as the first movie based on this terrible conflict.This war has affected every individual living in Turkey and everybody have something to say on this war.So in my opinion, Yucel has filled the biggest gap in Turkish cinema with this brilliant movie.Olgun Simsek is acting wonderfully and showing his linguistic ability especially when he is talking in Middle Anatolian accent. I wish many more people to watch this movie and the movie gets all the credits that it deserves..
