Ordinary and sloppy

[oytunp · 2/10 · 9 February 2012]

Even though the players are mostly known as funny individuals, the characters they have rolled are sloppy. Most of the dialogs between the characters are too long, unnecessarily detailed, not serving the main subject of the film. The film is trying to tease with a lot of horror movie clichés, they are not successful at all. The photography of the movie is weak, the camera angles, backgrounds have not been picked carefully and do not touch your eyes' taste. There are too many unnecessary characters in the movie too, which makes the audience to loose the target and get bored. The changing of character Mujdat to a dog/wolf is not convincing, looks so artificial and very simple computer retouches. The make-up is even worse. You may laugh in several scenes, if you can stand to watch it all. During all the film, you feel that the scenes shot in a hurry.

Dogman ?

I mean, I was a teenager when I watched it and my sense of comedy was different, but even then I didn't really like it.

How much worse could it be?

Masterpiece

As someone who likes the cast, loved the concept and who considers Safak Sezer very talented and has enjoyed a good deal of his films, 'Kutsal Damacana 2: dogman' was somewhat of a let-down. It has a lot of great elements, but also has its flaws and one admires Sezer more for his ambition than his execution.

Starting with the praises, 'Kutsal Damacana 2: dogman' does look spectacular. It's majestically shot, seamlessly edited and boasts audacious set design and fantastic special effects. The music score from Ercan Fifty is perhaps his best effort for a Sezer film, it has subtlety but also an unnerving eeriness and haunting and heart-wrenching pathos. The sound effects and sound mixing are expertly managed and give a real sense of authenticity.
