BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

karyaozmen The bitter facing of the good and the bad.The story is told in a different way. Normally the story line starts with introduction followed by development and then the conclusion. but in this movie this is a little bit different and this makes the movie unique. In this movie the order is like this: introduction, conclusion, development. A short introduction, a ferocious conclusion and a long development. It does not bore or let the viewer down. On the contrary it makes you open your eyes widely and watch it without blinking. The actress Binnur Kaya who appears as the electrician Celal's wife Sevilay performs wonderful scenes. Also Engin Gunaydin shows us how it is to be a bad person without regretting. A breathtaking black humor. And the family with an absolutely diabolical father, with an angel mother and their teenager son who got stuck in between.

lilaqueen I was one of the best films I've watched in a long time. A story of a family living in a small town struggling against the daily life like in classical melodrama. But this one takes the issue in a satiric way and takes a big step into black humor, even into film noir. While doing it never leaves the control of the movie or lose the center. A movie in harmony with all elements; from plot to actors, from cinematography to directing. It was a very pleasant experience for me, I really enjoyed it. A very satisfying movie coming from contemporary Turkish cinema which needs more films like this. In fact every cinema needs films like this.

port 5 Vavien is one of the rare (if not the only) dark humor experiences in Turkish cinema. The movie delivers evil in a naive way, just as might be expected from a life in a small town. Surely, the films strongly stands on its excellent cast. However there are some problems with the script. At least, at some point it becomes unclear that what kind of realism the directors wanted to deliver to the viewers (the scene where Sevilay kicks off the door and enters in a very caricature way). Cinematography is nice but the same does not go for the audio. I also think that the soundtrack is not on the strong side neither here. All in all, this is a satisfactory dark humor flick...this is, of course, if you like the genre.

grapesofbutcher Taylan Brothers' career, beginning with commercials and TV series, had already found its stylistic maturity even in their second film Küçük Kıyamet. However, this time, we encounter some other elements, a well-written screenplay, superb acting and a perfect provincial setting are woven together masterfully.Vavien also remarks the beginning of a new age for Turkish Cinema. Its revival in mid 90s has proved itself in an artistic level and has been internationally acclaimed in the naughties. Vavien's virtue is combining this maturity with the expectations of the audience.On the other hand, there are some comments about the Coenesque style of the movie. I think those elements mentioned are not enough to talk for an imitation or a pastiche. The idea of getting rid of a wife or a money bag does not solely make a movie Coenesque.
