i see some people complaining about how cagan irmak, the director is playing with the feelings of people... alright, he is really good at finding the desires, passions and touchy moments, i agree with that but i think that's what makes this movie great... the movie has a story that gives most of the people the feeling of "having lived that moment", i believe it is based on mr. irmak's personal experiences... characters in the movie are well developed and acted good, especially the leading actor is just amazing... the director used the inner speeches (monologues/dialogues) very well... a very well known usage of the same thing is in the so called Turkish classical "selvi boylum al yazmalim" which exaggerated all this inner speech thing and made the movie unrealistic at some points, mr. irmak used it only when it is most needed so it is just giving the message, not disturbing at all... i believe those who didn't like the movie has some gaps in their lives, either never felt in love or never needed to be alone and ran away from all the ties... or they are the ones who are just finding reasons to criticize everything in order to show that they are more sophisticated... or they are so materialistic that they don't even see a reason for appreciating this movie... anyway, i think the movie deserves to be seen, mr. irmak did a really good job... oh, i have a word for those who like the movie just because of the soundtrack: those songs were always there, you are the one listening to the low-quality Turkish pop that's why you never realized how good we were in music, just open your eyes and ears, it may change your life ;)
