Wo willst du hin, Habibi?

Let's face it, this movie is not a stellar, high value production like a box-office movie, and the storyline is quite simple and predictable in a way. However, I have a soft spot (or maybe crush) on the main character , Ibo and he delivered a persona of an introverted, filial son but secretive with his sexuality, and I can relate to that. And what he did when Ali left the apartment is pretty much what I would do if I'm interested to someone, and some other things as well. Meanwhile, his counterpart, Ali is really an opposite of Ibo but I wasn't really irritated with his character which is a good thing. But, the precious Ibo is always there for his troubles.

Like other reviewer said, Ibo (Cem Alkan) lighted up with his presence in this movie, and I second that, I just love his demeanors and I wish I could have an 'Ibo' for myself. And I also wonder why he hasn't continued his career onscreen (as per IMDB listing) because I wish I could see him in another production just to see him in different light. This is still a mystery to me.

In overall, there were some cringe moments, but I still thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Good for light entertainment on weekend morning I would say.

Not written extremely well, and full of plot holes that leave you scratching your head. I could list them, but any viewer will pick them up.

What it does have are two attractive, endearing leads. You could believe their relationship. Also, just enough social commentary to relate to the story and move the plot forward.

It deals with their growing pains, the prejudice they encounter, as well as some family drama, etc. However, it also highlights how we cannot control who we love.

If you are a fan of gay cinema. I recommend you watch it, support it, and just take it for what it is - a story.

P. S. It has a great soundtrack by Bartosz Bludau.

It's a pretty basic movie but it does have its charm. There are issues with its rhythm. Sometimes it feels rushed and you get a sense that it probably would work better as a miniseries. Wanting more is a good sign. Having seen the two most recent movies of the director Tor Iben, I wasn't expecting a feel-good movie, but I understand why they gave him more chances to do his artsy stuff, with which he really struggles.

It's an OK movie with a basic plot and several soapy elements, but if you know the landscape of LGBT movies, this will feel like a rare outstanding movie.

It's not earth shattering or profound, but just a story of 2 attractive lads getting on in their bromance with a bit of social commentary thrown in. The story was sufficiently interesting to hold my attention for the full running time. I enjoyed the film and would recommend it.

Surprisingly well done. Subtle and layered.

Great story writing, good attention to detail, great acting.

Especially interesting angle of racism in Germany. Interesting vignettte where the Turkish protagonist is getting rejection letters until he uses Alexander's (blond blue eyed German name and photo) and gets an interview. Our household is still discussing the movie - it is quite layered and deeper meanings.

The erotic shots were also tasteful and subtle - able to watch with my mama.

It was a surprisingly tight movie too. I think it was only 1h15min, but they keep the story line moving.

Not just a basic gay love story. Will put on our rewatch list for sure!
