Outcomes:

Although Cem Yilmaz works with the same faces again, he did a great job. I appreciate to see how much he loves his culture and values. And wants to demonstrate how unique they are.

Cok Tesekkurler Cem. Gurbette Iyi Geldi.

Those who need to sort movies into various categories, who see drama as a baddies versus goodies game, who think heroes are only deadly serious supermen on a mission to save the world, those who think that digital effects can substitute the absence of creative imagination and that improvisation and clowning around pertain only to stand-up comedies... those people should not try to understand this wonderful film. Because nothing is as it seems in the world of cinema, only the people involved in it are real, their fates and their professional objective to complete the project. "Pek Yakında" was made by clever people for a creative audience and leaves a lot open to interpretation. Each cast and crew member find their own way, and the theme grows and matures without losing its integrity. There are no minor roles in the usual sense. Two characters, Zafer and Boğaç, seem to be pivotal to the plot, oscillating between self-deception, self-destruction, flight of fancy, despondency and a fatal love of their profession. Cem Yılmaz' and Ozan Güven's splendid acting performances make these characters natural and convincing, and create them with an engaging self-irony, far from any showy pathetic effects. Well plotted, creatively done. Directing, music, camera and so on, deserve respect. One of the most inspirational films about filmmaking and the people around it.

Pek Yakında is the best of Cem Yilmaz movies in my opinion. It is funny, gives messages, includes many topics, has some references to a few popular Hollywood movies such as Avatar, Fight Club, Oceans 11. I don't like every movie but I recommend this to everyone. The music in the film belongs to the group, MFO and perfectly fits the subject, the rhythm is great. You don't get bored during the film, instead final of it is not easily predictable. Caglar Corumlu is very funny as always and Ozan Guven acts so naturally. The scene in the hospital where main characters argue about finding a new actor for their film is nice and surprising in that they make fun of themselves and Yilmaz Erdogan appears suddenly in the scene..

Being one of the best comedians of our time (if not THE best) and an incredibly talented actor, Cem Yilmaz surely makes one go to the cinema with great expectations, and with Pek Yakinda, he certainly does not disappoint. His directorial debut is a heart-warming, carefully crafted movie which delivers all the laughter the audience expects, along with quality acting by a fantastic cast and a good story which involves friendship, family and the cinema industry in Turkey. It also shows the wide range of Cem Yilmaz's acting skills, and the movie is full of surprising guest stars in addition to the main characters, each and every one of whom deserve major applause for their parts. In particular, Caglar Corumlu's performance exceeds expectations and makes him the shining star of the movie! Long story made short, I cannot imagine anyone who'd regret seeing this film, and I strongly recommend it to anyone who's interested in a good Turkish movie filled with elements of fun and love on top of Cem's genius work.

He is really a man! He does good job. For me, it started and finished in a moment. Not boring. Many emotions . Congratulates!
