Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Maleeha Vincent It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
necat3321 after movies previous movies Yilmaz Erdogan, just like Vizontele and Vizontele Tuuba, i and, i suppose, most of us were expecting a great funny movie. also its preview fragments seemed very comic and we went to movie with these feelings. however after watching movie my first feeling was disappointing because it was not funny as much as i expected. however it was not bad too.the point make this movie badfor us, i think, was our tendencies and prejudices. about performance, they were really great they did best think. in conclusion it is worth to watch.
daunted_undauntable It is an "average" movie what Turks may say "vasat". The plot had defects. Things aren't clarified enough for the audience. But, overall, the movie is fun to watch. I appreciate the performance of Cem Yilmaz as a lawless man. Characters were funny and well played. Dialogs were good enough for a comedy movie. Fly cams gave the good vision of the beautiful coasts and quarters of Istanbul but those shots were unnecessarily excessive.By the way, the scenario of the movie sucked. Girlfriend of Asim Noyan appeared in one or two shots and then disappeared. And I don't want to talk about the end of the movie. It sucked. I wish they had planned the plot better. Yilmaz Erdogan could make a better work. But he couldn't. An average movie at all..
mustafa_er I've seen this film the other day and thought wasn't as good as I'd expected. Luckily I didn't go into this movie with very high hopes. Therefore didn't come out quite disappointed. If I'd gone with huge hopes I'd have been immensely disappointed. I don't think anyone really doubted this, but Yilmaz Erdogan hasn't come up with a winner again.Now, Yilmaz Erdogan fans will hate me for this but I hate the fact that so many people think Organize Isler is a 'perfect' 'flawless' flick because it really isn't. Yilmaz Erdogan was fine as was the rest of the cast to be honest. The acting was very good from everyone, no complaints there.A problem was that these bunch of shysters live in the middle of Istanbul , obviously for years, and heck no police notices it! My next biggest problem was the way they cheat the people. Come on folks, where do you live ? Aside from these, there were a few other smaller problems too. The Istanbul-shooting from the air, and all the Istanbul-helicopter-tours from the sky was cool at first but dragged on for too long for me. After every scene, being up again in the air sucked really. Other than this, unfortunately, this film lacks of plot, and the most abrupt ending ever. This film doesn't have any new ideas whatsoever. The story could have been better. Neither thrill nor excitement during the film. No really laughed-my-socks-off moments. Definitely lacks the humour we had expected. What the hell ? You go out of the cinema and wonder "huh ? was it a comedy I've just seen ? or an action flick ? crime ? what !" Yea comedy, then why can't I remember any memorable laugh-out-moments ? OK there were some, but nothing that really stuck in the mind.Too bad these kind of movies make money anyway because of the director and the actors that are in it. Below average........ 4/10
Mert Uyaroglu While film was starting with the beautiful scenes from Istanbul, I was ready to watch another great Yilmaz Erdogan movie, like Vizontele. First of all I want to say that the actors and actresses were really great. They had done their best. As usual Cem Yilmaz were starring at the most funny parts of the film, that were very short. If his role was longer, I'm sure this film will become frenzy in Turkey. But the screenplay wasn't so good. It has an unexpected end, which was confused most people. I left the theater with question marks in my mind. In conclusion in spite of first class actors/actresses and a first class facility (Istanbul), a bad screenplay made the movie an over average.
