Review of Bekas

Bekas (2012)
2/10
Rip Off from Slumdog Millionaire !
14 December 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Bekas is a lame rip off of Slumdog Millionaire (2008).

The writer and the director Kazan Kader just change the location from India to Kurdistan of Iraq. For sure with some changes in the story too .

In some interviews they mentioned : This film is based on the true story of Kazan in the 1990's. which doesn't make any sense because in Karzan Kader's IMDb profile is written :

Karzan Kader was nine years old when his family fled Kurdistan during the Iraq War in 1990. They settled in Sweden where Kader and his siblings were raised.

Beside all these made up stories and rip off, The thing that made this movie a bit famous is that it been shot in Kurdish language which most of the audience can't feel, hear, understand the mistakes and they read the subtitles which most of the movie was translated in wrong way just to make it cute to their ears.

However this movie was a waste of time for those who watched Slumdog Millionaire and for those who understand movies.
