Absurd but not comedy

[MovieandTheaterMaster · 2/10 · 11 July 2023]

This film is another BKM failure. This is not absurd comedy. This is absurd drama if I must name a genre.

The film falls far short of expectations due to its cliche and inadequate script and the director's inability to bring out a new perspective. While some may argue that absurdity is a matter of personal taste, it is difficult to overlook the blatant lack of effort and skill evident in this cinematic misadventure.

In the end, I can say with that poor execution and (?) scenario this film fails to meet even normal standards. It is a reality that if you are in the same creative area (istanbul bkm writers) you repeat yourself.

Nice Little Gem

While it may not be for everyone (especially the common Turkish audience who would regard this as a drama), this movie is a surprisingly good gem of an absurd comedy.

The plot is decent, the acting is good, and so is the directing. Add the little touches like lace laid on a dormant television in the living room, and it is quite immersive as well!

If you enjoy tales or instances of dark comedy, with an air of slight suspense, this film is for you. The rural setting and the frame plot of a family funeral does well to set up the story which unravels and snowballs into a somewhat predictable, but nonetheless enjoyable finale.
