Recep Ivedik

First off, there's one point that I'd like to make is that what did you the watchers expect from this film ?? You expected a top comedy ? You honestly thought that this would be the funniest Turkish comedy ever ? If you go to see this flick with huge hopes and have huge expectations, then this film might disappoint you hugely. If you expect the best Turkish comedy, your hopes might get shattered. Keep this in mind when going to see this film.

As we know the funny character from previous TV shows, the pranks and the funny dialogs were predictable. Nothing new of course what we see! Hence I don't understand why the viewers moan about this comedy!! They should have known better if you ask me. However, I can say that if you like the comedy character Recep Ivedik you will like this film as well. Worth seeing, really it is, honest I think so. This film's served its purpose in my opinion. Some of the scenes are hilarious, I laughed really hard at some gags, couldn't stop laughing at some absurd dialogs,too. It's not that you nearly die of laughter or laugh out loud all the way through out. But this comedy film has a lot of giggle moments. OK, even though it's got not a clever story-line, and the plot might be dull but like most comedies I was entertained but not to the point of laughing out loud , but it was still entertaining for me. Unfortunately, towards the end, everything is done badly, like in Turkish comedies nowadays!

Sahan Gokbakar (Recep Ivedik) is superb in the film. To tell the truth I was glad that the character Recep Ivedik played the role as we know him from his TV shows. Nothing new was added to the role which I found cool. Other than that, the bellboy Komi and the lorry driver are really annoying, but Sahan Gokbakar (Recep Ivedik) and Tulug Cizgen (Sibel's mother) save the film.

To sum up, I can say that that Sahan Gokbakar fans would like this, however as with most comedy films which stem from an hour TV show, you do get a lot of problems, you can tell that it has been overstretched and gags that look good on TV don't always have the same effect on the big screen. As above-mentioned, it's not the best Turkish comedy flick in the world but then again it really doesn't deserve all the bad comments. It might not be great for some viewers but to say that this film was really p*** poor, and try to trash this funny film is not fair. I don't think much of the critics anyway but give this film a chance.

The amount of bad ratings this movie has gotten over these recent years might come from a phonomonea that i call "lost in generation", where a film that used to be revolutionary gets rotten with the growing movie industry, and the company is still making sequels like its their mario, so this movie, from a 2008 perspective is great, but for a modern viewer, this would be weird for them, there has been greater films then this, and i always call this "Turkiye's Shrek", due to how edgy it is (plus the fart jokes), so if you like that sort of comedy, go for it, nobody is stoping you, but it isn't #1.

Some films are so bad that they are actually good. And occasionally we feel affection for them because if nothing else, they invoke feelings of nostalgia when imagination and creativity were almost commonplace and the bottom line. However do not be fooled into thinking that because you found old Kemal Sunal, Sener Sen or Zeki-Metin movies or other well-written Turkish comedies funny, you'll respond similarly to this Recep Ivedik.

Sahan Gokbakar is not a very "funny" guy. At least for me.. He tries so hard to be funny, it is impossible not to be annoyed by him. I can maybe watch some 5 minutes of him and that would be it. This is 90 minutes and that was harsh.

If you don't count the continuous swearing and its unbearable annoyance, there is supposed to be a joke hiding somewhere in this film but obviously I blinked at the wrong time. If you have the sense of humor of an emotionally retarded orangutan you might just enjoy it but be sure not to blink..

If you are into Turkish humor or want to see a Turkish movie, please pass this. Try some old Sener Sen movies... Otherwise get ready to see some solid toilet humor without any endowment.

I really cant believe why these few people write such terrible reviews about this movie.

First of all, you have to be Turkish /familiar with the Turkish culture and values. If you are not known with these then this movie might look like a 'farting and shouting - movie'.

I believe that the Actor and director reflected some Turkish behavior in this movie very good and its just a very funny movie.

I've seen of hundreds of movies including a bunch of Turkish movies but there hasn't been a single movie that made my laugh my *** off as much as this movie.

Just see for yourself en don't stop yourself because of the few bitter people who write reviews who don't have a sense of humor.

İ really gave the film 3 stars.Not because it deserved it but people took some time for it. I failed to understand people pay a good deal of money to watch this thing on a theater.There are free shows in some animal channels focusing on furry animals, acting the same mating behaviors. Well, the film may be funny because of its irrational anti hero but that popularşty, that idol.Come on, the guy is on the commercials now.I guess there is a mass delusion around.Is this what reflects us? I can say that just because of our own mentality, we will never reach up to some certain points.This field is one of them. And there are many fans of that furry animal i know.I feel pity for those who pay to this film while having a girlfriend next to them.
