Arif V 216

In a country where the first university was established in the 20th century, this film is a milestone, a turning point and an enlightenment in terms of its capturing storyline, acting quality, excellence in terms of the technicality of cinema, the messages it gives and so on!

Since I work in the US, I am aware of how important the art, literature and lately the film industry is in scientific developments. Remember how many years submarines appeared on the stage of history after Jules Verne's book Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. Unfortunately, Turkey is not even at the stage of dreaming about science and technology yet.

As a scientist who believes that many Cem Yilmaz films should be included in primary, middle and high school curricula, I believe that even thinking that this film is only a tribute to Yesilcam is a result of this lack of imagination of science.

As many Cem Yilmaz viewers agree, since Cem Yilmaz never made films for money or popularity, his films are 40-50 years ahead of the country's level of education, consciousness, imagination and creativity.

Perhaps those who will invent and produce Turkey's first one-of-a-kind artificial intelligence some decades from now, I am sure, will remember ArifV216 with gratitude and a big smile.

I adviced you for get rid of stress or distress; forgetting daily problems,let it all hang out.My slogan is little laugh, much smiling for this movie. I think your friends give you much laughter in a cafe by paying the same ticket cost. it is so so. Dont expect to be much happy , it is bored me a lot scene.

Do not listen to ruthless criticism. it is a movie that will take place in the upper rows. These kinds of movies should be watched in the cinema. The musics in movie was very good. i recommend to watch this movie without any prejudices. and congratulations on making this movie.

Arif v 216 is a bit of a back step considering the previous films AROG and GORA. Yet I firmly believe it achieves what it sought. The film is mainly about traveling back to 1960s and experience the naive sentimentality of those times through the lens of Turkish movies of that time. Thus, one could enjoy the luxury of meeting all the greats of Turkish cinema in 1960s as if one were in a parade. The directing of the film is quite satisfactory. The acting of the lead actors is also quite good. The plot flows quite smoothly, which makes the viewing very enjoyable. Technically speaking, the film was almost flawless. All in all, I could say that with all the reference to our nostalgia included, the film is absolutely a nice and easy watch. However, I cannot state that it is a great film. It is a good film worth watching and enjoying oneself.

Firstly, it has elements from GORA. If you didn't watch GORA, i recommend to watch it before.

This movie has many references to particular movies. I don't really recommend to watch this movie if you are not Turkish or have information about Turkish Cinema. Because most of the references about old Turkish movies.

It was absorbing until end but ending disappointed me a little. Even though it was the best Cem Yilmaz movie for me.
