Worst. Movie. Ever. (2009.10.10)

PERFECT is what I would say if it was supposed to be a parody or at least a comedy. Since it's obviously taking itself seriously, you really have to think hard about whether it's even possible to shoot something like this. I haven't laughed at anything as much as this ultimate "parody" for a long time. The final duel when the king is chopped in half ... I’ve never seen anything like it before, as well as many other incredible scenes (especially the training with rocks, I almost laughed my head off). It’s really one of a kind, receiving a score of 0%. (2012.08.23)

This is truly an unbelievable movie. Take several scenes from Star Wars, simply weave them into the plot, and connect them with your own crazy storyline where there's some strange Han Solo who keeps jumping on a trampoline and a villain who has a ridiculously weird robot by his side. This is so stupid you have to see it to believe it. Not to mention the fact that John Williams' music is still playing. Oh, the copyright... (2017.07.06)

I never thought that the music of Raiders of the Lost Ark would sound even better in the scenes with the biggest hotshot of the universe, who spends the entire film jumping trampolines, chopping stones with his bare hands and breaking grumpy plush animals in half. Thank you Çetine İnançi for your unprecedented courage to ignore copyrights and also for the incredibly extravagant, chaotic and haphazard direction of your “own” story (and I’m also nodding at you, Cüneyt Arkıne). I haven’t had this much fun in a long time. Whenever I heard any of Williams’s tunes, the level of guilty pleasure was lethal, making all that stupid stuff almost hellishly irresistible and awesome.

Turkish Star Wars, watch it and die! A clear tip for those who think that the film world can't surprise anymore. First of all, I would like to point out that the Turks have probably never heard of the concept of copyright. In their obscure mix of Star Wars and Superman, they inserted (stole) whole passages from Lucas's saga, but they shrunk the image, like when you make a rectangular widescreen format into a square, without side cropping, and converted it into garish colours, so the space ships sometimes look like they were vomited on by a whole air force at once. The music was also stolen, the entire film is accompanied by musical themes from Indiana Jones, Star Wars and other classics. The best part is of course the Turkish contribution: two heroes (supermen) walking among rocks (alien planet) and fighting against a galactic emperor (whose troops can't be compared to anything) and red bears (extras dressed in red fur coats). Throw in "superman training" with polystyrene boulders tied to his feet, karate punches landing 10 cm from a rock and lots of ridiculous fancy poses. The highlight is the superman martial art, I call it "baby-karate", because it looks exactly the same as the martial "presentations" of five-year-old kids playing with their friends. It’s hard to describe, you must see it. But make no mistake, this was not an obscure B-movie of its time, but by Turkish standards a high-budget film with the country’s biggest action star Cuneyit Arkin! Summary: a total cinematic low point, a total downer for days to come and after this experience, I have a question: Turkey in the EU? What would they do? (2007.10.23)
