Recep Ivedik 2

This, right here, is the definitive Recep Ivedik movie. This movie perfectly encapsulates Recep as a character and how he responds to the world around him.

First of all, we need to understand what this franchise is all about. The "Recep Ivedik" series is about contrast. How a man responds to a world that rejects him. How a man tries to break into a world that does not accept him. Recep refuses to conform to the norms around him. He persists to be himself. He refuses to be a fake version of himself to fit the world around him. This, in return, obviously makes him an outcast. He is seen as a mere animal by the snobs around him (and this includes most of the reviewers here).

To the basic viewer, this movie is nothing more than just a movie about toilet humour. To the unthinking eye, this movie is merely poop jokes and whatnot. It takes a viewer to watch carefully and pay attention to the themes to understand what is really going on behind the scenes.

Recep is a complex character. His physical appearance is a very important part of his image as a character. He resembles the stereotypical animalistic Turkish man. This is what the movie wants you to initally think of him; nothing more than a hog to laugh at. But as the movie goes on Recep shows he is a lot more than that. He is highly knowledged in popular culture and seems to be a lot more aware of the world around him than one might realise. We see more of his emotions throughout out the film, although they are explored best in the third movie.

Some of the humour might be cheap, but unlike a lot of comedy movies this is one that will be cemented in your mind, atleast for me that was the case. This was definetly an experience for me, a core memory.

Lastly, this movie will just not be as funny if you're not Turkish as you will not be able to understand the characters and the setting.

I have never seen such a disgusting film. There are comedies to make people laugh showing stupid scenes, but this one is impossible to be regarded as a comedy. There are many scenes to make you feel sick. Sahan Gokbakar, the director and the lead character, despises the audience, making fun of ordinary people in his film. The main character, Recep Ivedik, is a stupid one with a disgusting appearance and foolish manners. What is surprising that people laugh at these silly scenes. Having watched Recep Ivedik 1, cinema goers thought that this one was better, but most of them were disappointed except for the ones who suppose that it is funny to be ignorant and rude. After watching the film, the only consolation is to see that Sahan Gokbakar has used up all his material to claim that he is a good comedian or a good film maker. I hope Recep Ivedik 2 is the last one to deceive the audience.

I totally disagree with the "The worst film I have seen so far".

Sahan only made this movie because his "Recep Ivedik" sketch on "Dikkat Sahan Cikabilir" was much loved and viewed by millions on Youtube and other websites. He could have easily made a film about any other character he played in his show. His story seems very similar to Ali G's in that respect. Ali G only made Borat because it was the best loved character in "The Ali G Show".

Let's get one thing straight, most people watched Recep Ivedik 1 & 2 because they already had seen the sketch on TV and liked it, thus they knew exactly what to expect from the movie, just like I did.

Most the people who did not enjoy the movie probably never watched his sketch on TV beforehand, thus the disappointment.

I can agree that the movie is not a straight forward comedy movie and different to anything I have seen before but it still entertaining.

The movie may have a stupid story line or no story line as some say but it cleverly delivers a message. The movie isn't just plain stupid like Ali G, in fact there are so many scenes in this movie that show Recep is opposite of stupid.

Recep is very rude and sometimes disgusting in the movie but I found this funny, again not everyone will.

I think people who did not enjoy the movie missed on of the main points in the movie, "The Message"

Along side being "ignorant, rude and disgusting" he was educating people.

Examples such as:

"Ekinler bas vermeden kor buzagi topalmazmis" is a very nice message and makes sense.

He is not just a "Kiro" as we hear him talk about many things most people watching the movie don't even know about, things like Photoshop.

He looks after his Grandmother (In Turkey old people are never looked after and often put in old peoples homes instead) and also send the message across that "we should do anything it takes" to earn a living in this current situation.

He is very open with people and speaks his mind. When he meets "Yakuza" at the Chinese restaurant he openly tells her what he thinks, some may think he is horrible but I think he is doing the right thing.

To round it up I believe the movie was excellent, although some of the jokes were over the top he redeemed himself with the good message he was putting across.

People need to realise now that Comedy is not what it use to be, there are different types of comedy and everything has changed, Turkish comedy movies are what they are right now, lots of swearing. The Kemal Sunal days are over and now we have a new era.

Popular Turkish comedy writer and performer Şahan Gökbakar ("Dikkat Şahan Çıkabilir") reunites with his younger brother Togan Gökbakar ("Gen") for this fast and furious follow-up to their 2008 Turkish box office number one hit comedy "Recep İvedik" featuring his titular comedy character which manages to outperform its illustrious predecessor.

Fat, aggressive, unibrowed slob Recep İvedik (Şahan Gökbakar) has more than met his match in the form of his profanity spewing grandmother (Gülsen Özbakan) who sets him the tasks to find a job, gain respect and get married before she dies, which he achieves with a little help from cousin Hakan (Efe Babacan) and loyal sidekick Ali Kerem (Çagri Büyüksayar).

Şahan Gökbakar returns on top form as the inspired burlesque exaggeration of the modern Turkish peasantry at large in the city while superb support comes from Gülsen Özbakan who steals every scene as well as Efe Babacan and Çagri Büyüksayar who are not so easy targets as the westernised "White Turks" of the first film.

The film-makers free the character from the misguided romantic endeavour that so marred the first film to give the comedy creation free range in a series of short burlesque comedy routines more fitting to the likes of Mr. Bean or Borat that are tied together by the loosest of quest story-lines to create a far more satisfying film, albeit one still too crude and obvious for refined tastes.

"I am aggressive, I have complexes, but I am timid as a kitten when by myself. "
