Av Mevsimi (2010)
Morality and Class Conflict
This is the film that Yavuz Turgul's works in the police style this time, always having problems such as social transformation, development, decay. In the film, Şener Şen plays a well-intentioned, brave-hearted, sensible, disturbing character as it was in his previous films.
The most serious conflict of the av season is between the idealist police officer ferman (şener şen), the business man who came from Adana and later became wealthy, Battal bey (tough tekindor). This is a conflict we are accustomed to seeing in the cinema of yavuz turgul. Eşkiya Movie (baran and berfo) and Muhsin Bey Movie (Muhsin Bey and Laz Nurettin).
Yavuz turgul used the detective style only as a backdrop. Main theme, social events, rich - poor - middle class morality (if any). Is a middle-class man who is often oppressed in his films. Because what we call 'morality' is a value of the middle class. The moral definitions of upper and lower classes are very variable.
The film ends with a sad optimism as if it were in other turgul movies; Justice has been partially found but many lives and values have been lost.
Tabutta Rövasata (1996)
Urban Survival
An exquisite movie about survival. Perhaps human's biggest mistake is to throw itself into things outside of survival. There was an enormous scene in the film: the Turkish national team beat its rival and the people are throwing themselves in the street, but Mahzun is in the process of spooning the soup. In solving the hunger, in the life of survival. Identity, power, belonging, success, etc. What's so important about surviving?
Yesil Isik (2002)
Underrated
Fantastic type in Turkish cinema has lessly works. This film is one of them. Deserve better score. İ think it's underrated. Kenan Işık is very successful.
The paradise scene could have been better. Also the girl in heaven scene who is deniz akkaya; was very bad. Deniz Akkaya is untalented.
Robin Hood (2010)
The Worst Robin Hood Adaptation
There are dozens of adaptations of Robin Hood. All of them are appreciated. But this movie is the worst of the robin hood adaptations I've seen so far. The weakest fiction, the most stagnant and boring film ever.
Despite two excellent actors, Russell Crowe and Cate Blanchett, the film has not arrived. Totally waste of time.
