"Neredesin Firuze" or "Where are you, Firuze ?" is perhaps one of the best movies of 2004, not only for the Turkish cinema industry but considering the world cinema as well. A slight resemblance to the famous musical "Chicago" might be not an exaggeration too
A perfectly written screenplay by Levent Kazak and a careful and colorful direction of Ezel Akay makes you stick to your couch until the film ends. Many laughters as well as some eye drops will guide you into an incredibly colored atmosphere with carefully chosen songs, singers, clothes and and performances. Almost one fourth of the Turkish performance actors and actresses take place in some part of the movie too.
The soundtrack is considerably well done. There's one obstacle for it to become a world legend that it carries too much local indigrients that I'm not sure an English ( or any other foreign language ) translation might not be as successful.
I must admit, Haluk Bilginer is at his peak performance in creating a music producer with many abilities except music producing. He is one of the best actors Turkish cinema industry ever met, with long years of experience in British theatres as far as I know. Demet Akbag is at her usual , Ozcan Deniz with perhaps the weakest link covers his actor presence with his magical voice and romantic songs. Ata Demirer is another surprise in the movie. He is a man with many faces and does a great job to entertain us all. Cem Ozer, like Ata Demirer is a talk show man, but I think he is a real actor with observing eyes.
One other surprise is the director Ezel Akay ( he calls himself Ezop ), which couldn't stop himself to take a part in the movie too. As a hit man, he's the sound only that we don't see the face, but who knows, he's something special.
The movie is about the people who seek their chances in music industry with no backgrounds but only a blind courage to make a record. The failures and short successes, the correlation between the mafia and the small people takes us to a totally different world of dreams. The costume designs and sets are amazing, so are the graphical presentations throughout the movie. There's a lot of effort and artful elements put in the movie that, you won't regret you see it at least once. ( I watched it three times already ).
As I watched the DVD version which is also prepared successfully ( with DTS ), I advise all to watch it and have a seriously good time and real entertainment. I too rate it as a 9 out of 10.
Thanks to everyone involved and thanks to Ezel Akay for the joy he brings. I hope this movie will find a way to show itself to world audience, and get what it really deserve.

When my friends convinced me to see this movie I was expecting a silly comedy because of it's trailer.But when the movie started it just took me in and didn't let me go until it ends.Especially the songs of this movie.They're sung by some of the greatest singers of Turkey and every song is so well placed into the movie that it blows you away.Probably the non-Turkish viewers won't get the songs' meanings so i think the subtitle should include the songs' lyrics too.This is also a very realistic movie that tells the path to become famous in Turkey.It's sometimes easy but mostly a long hard path to walk.So if you still have a chance to see this movie,see it.You won't regret it.
The topic, cinematography, music, little details, and the ending. It's amazing with all its features!!!! Definitely a 10.
I can't find word to explain the feelings while watching this movie... It is a bit musical, a bit movie; also combines tragedy, comedy and whatever other feelings are there... It also gives an idea about the power of dark forces over music sector in Turkey; and also the cheaters in it. Maybe; "Hope" and "Success" words can be a roof for summary of this story! Congragulations Ezel Akay!
If it is needed to tell about the techniques; really similar to Chicago maybe; but also original sounds and colors. I have to say for foreign watchers: All singers in the movie are real. They are star in Turkey; and most of them is as old as Turkish Pop Music comes to world. (For Ex: Erol Büyükburç is one of the first examples of Turkish Pop Singer) Not only pop music; many genre of songs are played in movie. (Really successful soundtracks!)

Saw this in London, the first time I saw a Turkish movie, and bought the ticket by mistake (I actually went in to see The Village!). When I realized I was watching a subtitled Turkish movie, I was about to leave the cinema, but had fifteen minutes before the Village started so I stayed on.
I was expecting a cheesed up Bollywood movie, but I was simply blown away. I stayed till the end. I don't think I have ever been so moved by a movie - it captures the essence of human spirit on the same level as the greatest movies of the 20th century. My only regret is that this will forever be unrecognized in our world. This movie invariably deserves to be in the IMDb to 250 movies of all time, if not in the top 25.
