10 Tage eines guten Mannes

Following Sadeq the ex lawyer who lives like a homeless person in this 10 days journey to solve a mystery was very entertaining, intriguing, interesting and like a good witty well written crime novel was very captivating.

I am a huge fan of Turkish drama, and this movie surprised me, it was riveting, captivating with a very satisfying ending. For once, good people do get rewarded and bad people get justice. Life is not fair, but the message of the movie is very hopeful ... a message that any Sadiq (trustworthy) good human can get a share of happiness without giving up his values and selling his soul to the devil.

Who are we to judge, yes? So no pun intended as always. This may be the first of a trilogy ... or is it more? I only know there will be a third one, because Netflix told me after I finished the sequel! This begins quite interestingly .. action followed by ... some drama. We get thrown into the whole thing. And we feel for our male main character. Well I would hope we do (I do, I mean everyone else).

Of course him being of a certain age and having a past relationship ... beginning a new one ... with someone way younger than himself. It may sound a bit like male fantasy ... but the problems he has to endure .. not so much things one wants to have to worry about. Well told, even if I reckon it could be a bit tighter overall. 10 days in 2 hours .. another 10 days ahead ... (and another)

Iyi Adamin 10 Gunu is a wonderful crime movie. It's a better "hardboiled criminal fiction" film than anything else in the Raymond Chandler canon. There are numerous allusions to Chandler and his famous investigator, Philip Marlowe. The story of Mehmet Eroglu takes this style to Istanbul, Turkey. The movie follows a common yet multilayered plot that introduces us to a variety of complex individuals, local concerns, crooked lawyers, local mobsters, illegal immigrants, violence, love, justice, human traffickers, sex workers, and freaks. Gorgeous Istanbul scenes set the tone for the story. The characters and performances, as well as the story's consistency, are excellent. Putting them together results in an excellent crime movie. We are lucky because it is the first movie of a trilogy.

10 days of a good man started out as good movie. We were introduced to this man called sadik and his girlfriend. Until we see that he has another. Both woman are beautiful but really he should be honest. He is looking into a missing persons case that feels like to me it turns into a lot of different things and ultimatly as a result it was hard to follow and I thought the movie became a bit boring after that. If it had been straightfoword it would have made a lot more sense and been enjoyable. But as it stands 10 days of a good man was a mess. The cast were alright and some were better than others but overall it was not a great film.

Wow! I really loved this movie. Please take your time to watch this one if you want to see a good example of an exciting crime movie from Turkey. You will not regret if you do. The story is well structured and the level of violence and sex is not exaggerated. I think the producers could easily use the story content to extend the movie from 2 hours to 3, but probably they did not want to take any risk. I hope the translation language is good enough for you be because I was lucky to understand the original language. My only suggestion would be that the main actor not resist having a bit of Botox around his eyes and dye his hair. We like him very much.
