Before I start of how i think about the picture, I would like to emphasize that I am a big fan of Mr. Yilmaz's stand-up comedies as many millions of people in Turkey. However if one must talk about the movies Yilmaz personally wrote and directed, then we come up with a conclusion that he is not as successful as he is as a comedian on the stage. The term of being successful is also too generous for someone to mention that kind of works. What are the requirements for a work to be called as a movie? That must be the first question for a person whose claim is to write the screenplay and direct a picture. And these requirements are not that simply to obtain as we can already observe form Cem Yilmaz's works. He has a great potential but have not gone many step forward since he started filming career. In every work he plays, his character acts identical with the character from the previous work. It is much the same person although their names differ from each other. The main and the biggest problem lies on the screenplay and directing. That are point where Mr. Yilmaz should be criticized. When we watch him as an actor in movies which he only acts and got no effects on directing and screenplay he is much more better. What he should be doing for his next work and what he is gonna make will be so different i am one hundred percent sure of that. Because he is not such kind of a person who evaluates the commentaries in a positive way.
... View MoreAs a Cem Yilmaz fan i still can't get over G.O.R.A. but you can enjoy every Cem Yilmaz movie. I enjoyed this one. The acting is really good, every scene you wonder what is gonna happen and characters are lovely.Keep your expectations low. I know when you heard Cem Yilmaz doing something you're waiting to see it with impatience and you always assume it will be super funny and you gonna laugh until you cry. But follow the story, follow the characters not only lines. I'm not telling this movie is so good or so funny but it's a good production and worth to see. Not a waste of time. When i heard the name of the movie "Ali Baba and the Seven Dwarfs" i thought it will be a fantastic comedy movie. But it turns out an action comedy. Characters of Cem Yilmaz movies are always have drama, you're loving them and you feel sorry for them. You want them to accomplish everything and be happy. The movie warms your heart. That's what i expect from a comedy movie.If you want to laugh like and elephant then go see cheap productions like Recep İvedik. I'm not saying Recep İvedik is worthless but you can't even compare them. Try to enjoy the movie and don't say people "It's not that funny, i only laughed couple of times" who cares? It's your sense of humor!
... View MoreI didn't have the opportunity to watch the movie yet. But who cares, it is a Cem Yilmaz movie so it doesn't have any other chance than being a great work. I'll come and edit/rewrite my comment here after watching the movie. And if you ask why i am writing this, the answer is that i want to show you guys, to rate and review a movie you don't have to watch it. Knowing about the previous works of the writer/producer/starring actor would give you enough information about a movie. Here it takes us to the question what is watching a movie is? Is it seeing the every little detail in the movie and watching each frames the movie has? I watched the poster for 114 minutes and i consider myself as i watched it. Yes maybe I'm giving an extreme example but that is only because i want to take your time and stop you and make you think on the definition of "watching a movie". What makes a movie, a movie is everything about that movie. From the poster to the advertisement, every material and literature about that movie. So here i am reviewing it according to all other things except from the movie itself.Note:For those who are going to read this review and decide to post it or not, do not be deal breakers and let people read this review and smile. Do something nice, once in your live and post this!SINCERELY!
... View MoreI watched the movie today. As a Cem Yilmaz fan, I can easily say that this movie was the worst Cem Yilmaz movie ever. Playing two different character as a Cem Yılmaz is always a good idea. It was the only good thing for this movie. Cem Yilmaz is very clever and creative person. So, we were expecting more creative and funny movie but it was so boring. Some people leaved the theater before the end. I believe that Cem Yilmaz's next movie will be better than Ali Baba ve 7 Cüceler. In summary, I cannot say "you should watch this movie in theater". If you have time and you are a Cem Yilmaz fan like me, you can watch it in theater. Otherwise you may watch it from DVD or something else.
