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. "

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.

First of all I love the character "Recep" and I mean it. These film series are heavily misunderstood. People see Recep as a sloppy and pointless character. But he is not. He is one of the best example of anti-heroes; Like Tyler Durden (Fight Club), like Tuco (The Good, the Bad and the Ugly) or like Travis Bickle (Taxi Driver). He is an anarchist, he doesn't want to obey the unwritten rules of the society, he doesn't want to surrender to the conformist way of the everyday life. And he, represents the socially awkward people like us, struggling with our problems.
Acting is perfect in the movie. Every character, every extra used in this movie is acting so natural. You feel like you know them, you feel like they are your friends; with joy, sorrow and many other emotions. You feel like Recep, whatever he does.
I think this movie is more satire than comedy, but the comedy part shines more. The movie plot is against rules of society and the vessel is comedy.
I say buy this movie if you love comedy and satire.

Recep Ivedik is one of the best characters created by Turkish television and cinema lately. He represents a typical opportunist, selfish, arrogant, insensitive, annoying urban character. In an ordinary day in Istanbul you see such characters in the form of a lady driving a jeep while using her cell phone and violating traffic rules and putting others in danger, in the form of a manager humiliating his/her subordinates or a shopper shouting at a cashier.
When I first saw this character I thought we finally found our Homer Simpson. With clever marketing, good jokes, good scripts you can use this every day character for years with a very high popularity. However once again greed killed the goose laying golden eggs.
Unfortunately this movie has been absolutely a disappointment with a very bad script, nasty jokes, irritating awful grandma character, poor story telling, poor directing, poor cinematography and waste of time. Clearly harmful for children of all ages. Trailers are much better than the movie itself. Not recommended at all.

I agree with comments that this movie is not a real "movie". But its aim is not creating something that has an artistic value, but it is to make people laugh. When I watched it, the whole people in the movie theater were laughing continuously. Since this is a comedy film, and it can make people laugh, the rest is not so important. It is definitely better than the first one, there are more characters and more places, and the script is better except for the first half an hour. The grandmother's talks and Recep's speech to the crowd nearly in the end of the movie were the funniest, I think. If you want to "just" laugh, then don't hesitate to see it. But the jokes are for only Turkish people to understand.
