Fetih 1453 (2012)
Not a bad movie
Since it's one of the first historical epic movies from Turkey, I wasn't expecting much. However, if you choose to look away from cheap CG, the story telling is not bad at all. The movie had plenty of cool elements and decent acting. My only other complaint besides cheap CG is the soundtrack. It's slightly cliché. They should've incorporated eastern, Turkish motives to the soundtracks to make it more authentic. Of course, certain groups of people will dislike this movie and rate it poorly. The movie somewhat sticks to historical facts, but this can never truly accurate as history is written by winners and it's subjective in its nature.
Pars: Kiraz Operasyonu (2007)
Not bad, worth watching
When i watched this movie i didn't have high expectation, as I've watched many Turkish movies recently and I'm aware in what genres the Turkish cinematographers are good. The movie is worth watching and it touches very serious topics, such as drug usage among the youth etc, although it didn't have many original elements. I also didn't like the performance of many actors including Mr. Kurtulus', it was quiet mediocre.
To conclude, if you are planning to watch this movie lower your expectations and just watch it as any other Hollywood action flick with a small Turkish touch.
Beyza'nin Kadinlari (2006)
cliché too much cliché
Persuaded by the 7.0 points in IMDb, which is pretty good, i decided to watch this movie. However, i found this movie quiet boring (about 2 hours) and full of clichés, A little girl getting multiple personalities after a childhood trauma etc. Tamer KAradagli is quiet funny in this movie, dialogs motions etc, you will have to see it, he is kinda the tough cop you see on American movies, perhaps copied too much. I would describe this movie as ordinary American thriller with a little bit of Turkish touch, Unfortunately yet again I'm convinced that comedies and dramas are the only genres worth watching in Turkish cinema Anyways i gave this movie a 4, its too boring and full of clichés
