Chef (2014)
10/10
Underrated Gem!
2 April 2020
The leading man (in fact my man) Jon Favreau is hilarious! I really love to see him on the screen but once i log on IMDB, I saw that he is the director as well! OHM...this is really great movie and John and Emjay adds too much things. Kitchen of the movie is fullfilled with talent, vegetables and senses. Today was a good day that's because I saw this moive! Thanks Jon, I really aprreciated with every seconds of the movie! 10/10

Sorry...
2 April 2020
Sorry guys, this one was the worst of the series...emotion ; check, acting; check; directorial; failed, story; failed. No deepness, no "real" action as in the first 2 ones. Martin was Ok with funny moments and Will was at a top level at this age but something strong is missing : the soul of the legacy! Since i was a kid, this couple was the second best after Gibson and Glover but from this movie on, I will look for new ones...sorry guys, really sorry. 5/10

It Follows (2014)
4/10
Yes, Back to Classics But Definitely Overrated
14 June 2015
OK, sometimes we never look for logic in horror movies but i really did not like this one. Simple and meaningless idea covers the whole film. Maybe I expected too much after seeing the rate on IMDb. And I respect the ideas of other people but never felt in the same way. Bleeding ghosts but can not walk through the doors; ghosts but need to walk in 1 km/h. What? Afterall, should I afraid of making love now? Never! And even not for a second, I could not thrilled. Sorry guys! There are tonnes of underrated but better films in the market. Sorry but I disagree with all these people and never suggest to watch. Thanks to God I did not watch this at theater. Otherwise I would regret for the payment.

True Detective (2014– )
9/10
Perfection!
5 May 2014
It was started without any idea. All I knew about the show was only the cast. To be honest, I could not be sure if I would go on until the third episode. It took some time to accept/get used to the personalities and slow tempo. But on the fourth episode, I started to understand that this show would be one of the best shows I have ever watched! For me, since I have this experience, Matthew and Woody is the best couple of television/cinema/theater. Especially, the final episode was one of the most disturbing endings I have ever seen! In the last 20 minutes, I smoked more than 3 cigarettes! I suggested many of my friends to watch it and all liked it. I believe you will like it either 9/10

Snowpiercer (2013)
8/10
Train Of Humanity
5 April 2014
Different but same... The Snowpiercer is a good movie with its messages and I liked the way of telling the story of mankind. Especially, the final of the movie, of course with Ed Harris' great acting, the movie pushes you to face the meaning of our acts and emotions. You may disagree with the idea but you'll certainly think about the words of "Wilford" and "Mason". Atmosphere is good, acting is good, but story is better than both. I have started to watch it with some expectations and at the end, all my expectations fulfilled with satisfaction. Fight scenes, sense of humor, tempo, special effects are first class. It worths to watch every minutes of it. Highly recommended, you should watch it 8 / 10

Bereavement (2010)
3/10
are you kidding me?
10 September 2011
One word: Rubbish! The reviews are telling great lies about this one and all you will have is a time waste. The reviewers should be the parents of the director or someone else who has involved in this picture!

I have seen better bad ones but when you match with the reviews, this was the worst one.

Thanks to God, I did not watch this one in the theater!

I even could not understand the genre of the movie, drama or thriller??? There are lots of good pictures out there! Do a favor for yourself and stay away from this one!

Dorothy Mills (2008)
10/10
Excellent!
11 September 2009
Acting, music, story and the place that the movie have been shot...all these elements combine the movie can be described with one single word : EXCELLENT! I have not watched such a great movie since ORPHANAGE. Same genre but the script is different. No matter how many minutes that the players have on this picture, but all the characters were fitting to their roles greatly and from begging to the end, you feel uncomfortable but curious as well. What you need to do is turning off the lights and leaving yourself to the atmosphere of the movie. Guarantee : You will enjoy and at the end, you will start to think "Why didn't I hear about this movie so far?" 10/10 Highly recommended.

Triumph!
24 March 2009
First of all, the movie is not for the guys who hates slow tempo! You can count this info as a spoiler, but my first sentence is for the people who may want to see what users say about this picture before watching it. Well, this is a must see! And this is the first example of Norwegian movie I have ever seen. The movie has it's own style and using "kid" characters made it complicated, at the same time, very simple. I believe that the film shows the way that how a boy can prove his love to his lover: Not with muscles nor his fighting skills but again, with his love's itself. These kids are telling great things to adults. Despite of the slow tempo, you stuck on it. I postponed 3 times to answer my cell phone during the film :) 9/10

Blindness (2008)
10/10
Personality Does Not Depend On Senses
20 February 2009
For some people, some of the movies are more expressive than the others. I could give this movie 8 or 9 stars, but this one is a definite expressive one for me. The story telling and the characters of the movie, which have been fit correctly to the playing actors/actresses, make this picture a MUST SEE. Well, what I started to think after watching this movie is : How would be my life if I was a blind or a deaf or a dumb person and would I be a different guy without the senses I have. I believe that people can give shape to their own personality, but the personality's origin comes from birth and nothing can change it's base and essence. Maybe most of the audiences are going to criticize this one in a different way but all of the people who watch this one will pick up a role and put him/herself to the character's place, that's for sure. Because this picture is telling who we are, what kind of a species we are and the sides of life that we hide from ourselves or the feelings what we don't want to accept/have. Highly recommended if you look for a stylish and "make me think about" movie!

Great Story
1 February 2009
When a science-fiction movie's location is not space but is earth, also if there is an alien threat, it becomes a nightmare for most of the audiences. At least, I feel this way and I believe so. If you can focus on this movie carefully and if you have no idea about it before, you will enjoy it and you will scare a bit. Many of other critics did not fit my thoughts and I really liked to watch how earth stopped. Especially the ending message is good but could be better if editors would leave it longer. I think many of other fans will wait for it's DVD to see the deleted scenes. Because somethings looks missing in this one. 7/10 Give this one a chance and watch it.

The Orphanage (2007)
10/10
Excellent!
7 September 2008
If I would not know that the director is Bayona, I could easily say "This film is Del Toro's". Maybe not the director but as the producer, it's clear to see that there is a touch of Del Toro on this movie. Anyway, beside Del Toro, Bayona is one of my favorite Spanish directors now. If Bayona does a work again, as I will definitely do, I fully advise you to try to see it without asking any questions as if it's good or not. Because it will definitely will be a great one! This film is amazing and its atmosphere reminded me Pan's Labyrinth. A world that based on children fantasies is always an interesting theme to use and show. Because this kind of pictures boils innocence and fear in the same cup. And you feel insecure, curious, pityingly and afraid. In this one, I felt all those feelings until the last scene. 10/10

Taken (I) (2008)
8/10
Great !!!
17 July 2008
Warning: Spoilers
I had no idea about "TAKEN" when I was stepping inside of the theatre. Liam is one of my favorite actors. But since I see the movie's poster and read his name on it, I even didn't know that Liam was in the leading role. Anyway, after a few minutes later, I started to focus on the film and the show started when the sweet daughter left the country with her best friend. Since "Bourne" series, honestly, for a long time, I did not watch such realistic fighting scenes! This movie made me fully satisfied with it's directing, cast and atmosphere. It was very serious, hard and straight. Screenplay is simple but tempo makes you to forget about it. Once it's DVD comes out, I will definitely add it to my archive. Neeson was like a storm during the film. He was very successful when we match his performance to his age. As I mentioned, movie just have a simple story but very watchable and entertaining. Go and get it!

Only For Turks
2 April 2008
Warning: Spoilers
I guess that this movie is only for Turks! No other nation audiences will have fun or understand the wit and jokes. Exorcism has already been mentioned several times before in comedy movies, but in this one, we are looking into this with eyes of an ordinary citizen of Turkiye. The jokes are not so good maybe, but the actor Safak Sezer is succeeding to make you laugh with using his ability. For me, the most enjoyable moment was his reaction/fear after seeing the girl who has been captured by Satan and watching him in the bathroom when he was cleaning his underwear that got wet because of his scare. It can be a good weekend fun but do not expect too many things. Because after the film, I had nothing to remember. 6/10

Inside (2007)
9/10
The Most Disturbing Experience
31 March 2008
Warning: Spoilers
At first, I must say that, who has a weak heart or if you are a pregnant lady, stay away from this movie! This is not a joke! This film has no limit to make you see the gore & blood and puts you in the middle of a continuous uncomfortable feeling. After I watched it, I powered on my computer and wanted to tell about this movie via IMDb. As many of the other audiences, I am not sure about what I suggest, but this genre's fans must not miss this blood bath. During the film, if you expect it to slow down, you should wait for the ending credits. Of course the film's horror theme based on visual effects, but the beside of eyes, your heart will hardly resist it's story telling. Personally, I could not understand clearly if all I watched was a revenge story or a pregnant woman's subconscious fear, but I'm definitely excited and impressed! The film also touches to an actual social event : Furious reaction of the immigrants in France as burning the cars. This detail makes you think where the feeling of security is, inside or out of the home? Also, it's music is very cruel as much as the film. Great job! 9/10

Jumper (2008)
7/10
Energetic Movie
26 March 2008
One of the most enjoyable, fast running movie that I watched lately. Maybe most of ours dream is pictured with JUMPER : Being in another continent in one second. We can count this movie as an answer of the humankind's one of the top ten fantasies of all time. Especially for teenagers, this is good to watch. It could be longer and may tell why the jumpers are jumper, but -in my opinion- the producers are keeping this option for a possible second part. Cast is good. After AWAKE, Hayden Christiansen is changing and becomes a superman, maybe a super hero. We see more than four country's most excited places during the film. 7/10 You will not be regret, a good pop corn movie.

Faith Akin, poet of the sadness and is becoming a master
15 March 2008
After seeing his film Duvara Karsi (Gegen die Wand), I made a personal decide : I must see all his films before I die. Now, I believe that my last experience with "Auf Der anderen Seite" proved that I'm right with my decision. What I like to see in his films is hearing and seeing the love from different angle. Sadness is a way to understand the value of the love and he is showing us that in his own style. Even I stay against some of the characters, in my personal opinion, he tries to tell us that when you match with life and being wanted, being needed, all other constitutions and formations are nothing! He also uses and mentions Turkiye's crossing to a new looking and new thinking. His bridge between two cultures is so strong and this story could not be filmed by any other director. Excellent work and a must see.

Halloween (2007)

New breathe of the old story
27 December 2007
Until now, all we know about Michael Myers was his strange and powerful will of killing. But in this one, we witness the born of his rage, disappointments, the reason of his unlimited hate on people and the sense of being wild. So far, I was thinking that he will not stop until his last family member is finished. But when you watch it, you will find the "real" answer of his purpose. The story is different than the original and I think you will like, even you will ask yourself if Michael is totally guilty or not. I mean, I believe that you will start to think he is not a callous killing machine. Recommend you to watch it in a late time of the day.

Time wast
9 April 2007
After seeing it's trailers, I thought that at last I found a good epic to watch. But this waiting has been ended with a disappointment. All the story is built up on a heroic & unbelievable butcher born, supernatural, AOHUUUU screaming guys. After 45 minutes later, these guys started to make me wish to see the film's end. At least I thought so... I hardly understand the reason of so much pumping to the muscles during all the film. I was wishing to hear poetic, good sentences as before in TROY, but this one can not catch it's emotion and no charisma in the characters. I never read and saw it's comics/books, but if the original source is kept as itself in the movie, this is a very very big time waste for the readers, too. After Ghost Rider, again, this one could not give me the feeling I was waiting for. I don't know, you may like it if you like to see the violence. Try & see...

Lost Things (2003)
1/10
Wonderful?? You must be kidding!
7 April 2007
This was the most disappointing films I have ever seen recently. And I really hardly believe that people say goods things about this very bottom film! No reason to watch, even wonder. Be away from this one and don't waste your time with bad acting and nonsense dialogue. I don't know if you have seen Bodysnatchers -another Australian film- but this one's first 20 minutes will make you forget about this country's good examples. Awful and unnecessary. What made the people who rated with high points but they must have never seen a good movie. Two guys and two girls, a beach, a nomad guy and the rest is a question mark which makes you regret to spend the time you have. Sorry to use all these words but the only good thing about the film is ocean's great color and sounds of waves. Do yourself a favor and DO NOT rent this film.

Faith AKIN, The Conqueror
5 April 2007
At first I must say that, we -who watched this film- discovered a real energy what Turkey needs in cinema sector. The director, Faith AKIN, is a great story teller and knows how to reflect the intersections of the people's personal seeking in the life. I think he tries to prove that the degeneration of the cultures can not be stopped and he always makes us to ask ourselves if the life of the characters suits on us or if they are doing the right things... Sibel Kekilli is acting good but Birol Unel is driving the movie. He shows what a lover man have to do with his own style and he deserves all the good words with his successful act. A very dramatic story on a long long bridge which connects two hearts and two countries... Do yourself a favor and rent this movie.
