Dünyayi Kurtaran Adam

Come on folks; this is George Chung meets Star Wars; somewhat tainted with nationalist and religious motifs... Otherwise, it is a helluva movie. For example, I love the scene where the pilots are bending their heads down (and bending over their knees?) to emulate the effect of diving with their tie-fighters. Or, vipers... That is one-of-a-king special fx. Love the helmets, by the way.

Aliens in the film can kill you out of laughter. Somewhere in the galaxy far, far away; these Turkish pilots riding on Imperial tie-fighters are using the karate-do to save the world. They ain't need phasers or other weapons. The power is strong in these two.

However, I seriously think the director did not mean to steal, er, lend, some of the Star Wars footage. At leastI suspect that was not his intention. Film's poster suggests otherwise, anyway. (see at http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/tr/8/8b/Afisdunya.jpg for yourself) It clearly states Galactica on it. I guess Cetin Inanc did not know the difference. Still some villains looked suspiciously Cylon through (tin cookie boxes were provide for the shining armor), with other monsters bearing a stiking resemblance to Battlestar Galactica daggit of Boxey, Muffit II...When to come to think of it, they also resemble the Cookie Monster.

Music is also great throughout; particularly with the fights scenes on the planet surface, the aliens riding horses and just the right music at the background you expect Indiana Jones to jump in the fun at any moment. anyway... Or, as the score changes, maybe Han Solo will show up... Or, Indiana Jones...

But it is not the worst film of the world. There is worst. Trust me. Try "Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women." This is actually a re-edited version of a film previously released in the US as "Voyage to the Prehistoric Planet" (1965), which itself was an edited and dubbed version of the Soviet film "Planeta Bur" (1962). Hence, the US rocket-ships journeying to Venus bear the red star of the USSR.

And the "prehistoric women" do not appear in the original Russian film from which this was made. They were later added on. So, in this third version, Mamie Van Doren and several other well-endowed beauties lay around on rocks by the ocean and make thoughtful faces while they have a telepathic debate concerning the "alien invaders" from Earth. The girls worship a dead pterodactyl until the end of the film, then they pull the wrecked robot from the ocean and start worshiping it instead (proof positive that a blond is a blond, regardless of what planet she's from).

The cosmonauts and the girls never come face to face -- which is no surprise, of course, since their scenes were filmed six years apart on two separate continents.

Another favorite of mine is "Assignment: Outer Space..." As Rich Meyer puts it "There's a scene where an astronaut tries to escape a crash by jumping down to one of Mars' moons... Suddenly, there's an explosion when his ship hits. Unfortunately, the person handling the mattes was apparently sleeping that day, because you see an explosion in front of a bunch of buildings and behind a Chevy. Here we are in deep space near the Red Planet and there's a Chevy on a street in Italy. One of the most jarringly funny scenes I ever saw in a grade z movie..." Both these and some other great 8 films come in a single box "Classics from Outer Space," published by St. Clair Vision (USA), the one-and-only collection of must-see-to-believe-it Sci Fi films.

Is that actual english dialogue from the film that you are quoting? Every print of this that I have seen, is in Turkish with no subtitles. I suppose it's been getting so much attention, that many have thought of translating it, and making it more readily available. I thought maybe someone already had. The funniest "Star Wars" knockoff to date, and worth seeing at least once.

There were times when I was watching this film that I wondered, What must it have been like for the intended audiences when they first saw this nearly twenty years ago? did they rise up and hunt down the people who made this astoundingly derivative, shamelessly inept piece of camel dung and string them up from the nearest lamppost - or did it win the Turkish equivalent of the Oscar (the Osman?) for Best Picture? Still, I can't deny that it has certain charms. In fact, it's been a long time since I have laughed quite so hard at a bad movie that wasn't on Mystery Science Theater 3000. If you can find this one (and you might have some trouble - I had to get it from a guy in West Virginia and the print I saw was in Turkish only), rent it and watch it with a living room full of 'Star Wars' fans, liberally lubricated with a case of cheap beer. The finale must be seen to be believed.

This movie is truly cult and its pretty funny.I think its one of the very few turkish sci-fi movies. If a movie is good then its nice to watch it. If a movie is bad then you should not watch it at all. But if a movie is too bad then it makes more fun than a good movie. This is one of those movies, called B-movies. Perhaps this is a C-movie. It has very funny scenes. The space scenes are all stolen from star wars. They are sometimes too bright and sometimes too dark. They show scenes of star wars and they loop those scenes every 15 seconds. Sometimes they go backwards. The monsters are pretty funny too. Especially the big robot which had a big yellow ambulance lamp on his head. It was moving slowly around during the whole movie, saying something like "catch the earthlings! kill the earthlings!" the guy who was making the robot voice was probably holding his nose while talking to sound like a robot since they were not able to make digital sound fx. The story is cool too. I did not know that there are muslims on other planets =)

I think if there is a man who can rescue the world he is Cuneyt Arkin and this film shows us how to rescue the world. If somebody is thinking that the world is not a good place and its being worth day by day and wants to rescue us than he must watch this film. And if there is somebody who says bad things about this film than i can say him go and watch MATRIX. than u will see that film is a copy of Dunyayi Kurtaran Adam. The character Noe is a simple version of Cuneyt Arkin. This film is better than MATRIX to me. and also this film tells us many things about life.
