Organize Isler 2: Sazan Sarmali

Forget everything . If you love Istanbul , panoramic Istanbul views in this movie is fair enough . Musics in the first movie was legend . Music in the second one is not so good as the first. Characters are quite successful. Scenario is well known . But contains lots of little surprises. As mentioned at beginning Istanbul views are enough to forgets the failures.

It had a decent balance between action and comedy with the comedy side feeling a little more original. Can't say the same thing about the action parts because most of it felt like a cliche-filled 90s Hollywood movie. I also have a big problem with having music in 99% of the film even though its a formula that seems to work fine in Turkish film and tv show industry. For me it feels like watching an annoyingly long music video with a story. Most of the acting was good and had nice establishing shots of Istanbul.

A scammer's daughter's husband-to-be gets scammed from a different scammer. So they set out to catch those scammers while a gambling mafia are set out to catch them.

Thanks to Netflix, I didn't spend money for this movie. I think it's a movie that you don't need to focus to watch it, for that reason you can see it at home. The first movie was way better. The acting was not so powerful as the first movie. Kivanc Tatlitug and Yilmaz Erdogan were good but that is not enough for a good movie.

Yilmaz Erdogan present us a follow up of his follow-up cameo movie Organize Isler. It highlights the details of Istanbul and the Turkish standards in a very questioning way. But I am easy able to say that this part is not an oeuvre as the first one is. A fine watch but nothing more special than that. Worth watching with both family and friends.

A sidenote to this movie is the 'silkerler' word used in a scene is a quick copy of Levent Kirca's sketch named ''Silkmisim haliyi''. I just want to underline this to respect the profession of Kirca in the theathre business. But what made me to give the seven instead of six is the choice of minimizing the use of bad words with which other modern Turkish movies make their bread with.

The eight is too far due to the saturation of time with music and dance. The movie could easily be ended in 1&1/5 hour without them. This actually was wasted valuble time which could be usrled to perfectionize spoken parts of the movie or add some more action. Sometimes it felt like Erdogan ripped us off while he was eating the caviar.

He spent so much labor and money but unfortunately this was a commercial film. End of story.
