Vezir Parmagi

This film is a victim of a racist and smear campaign. The smear campaign was so successful that two mayors put a ban on this film! As for the film, I can say that as a comedy film it serves its genre quite well. The cast is great. The setting is unbelievably stunning. The music is great for Turkish music lovers. The script is quite balanced and hilarious at times. The acting is superb. There are some flaws in the script and the rhythm of the film but overall it was quite entertaining and satisfactory. I would give a well-deserved 7 over 10 to this film of Mahzun Kırmızıgül. The 3.7 given by the voters on IMDb is totally biased and unfair.

Beautiful, funny and critical of the abuse of power by religious people.

Watched this in the Netherlands and enjoyed it with family.

Truly a shame how a collective boycott was organized to make sure this movie was rated so low on IMDB (below 5).

It must have offended religious zealots.

The reason i am writing this review is for those who actually liked Mahsun's previous movies and expect the same quality from this one, however i regret to tell you that you will be upset. I also find that failing with such budget and cast in Turkish movie industry should be really hard yet i consider this movie as a big fail.The humor is so cheap and coarse which makes the movie boring. I see many people are also judging the movie politically which is unfair however you don't need to give this movie a low rating because of your political view but because the movie quality is what it is.

As a Turkish viewer who enjoyed most of Mahsun's movies, I must admit that this one fell short of my expectations. Basically intended to be a satirical comedy, this movie is actually lacking both character development and relevancy to the genre. As Turkish audience, we have seen good examples of satirical comedy reflecting the Ottoman Period such as Sener Sen's Degirmen. But unfortunately the quality there is incomparable to this one. Besides I have seen some reviews here claiming that those who rate this movie low are doing it because Mahsun is opposed to the government and values in Turkey. I am sorry to see such comments because they show how polarized a society we are. For me, I consider myself to be one of those who call an ass an ass and don't care anyone's opposition to anything.

I went to see this movie in the Netherlands with my Turkish friends. In the past I saw some pretty good Turkish movies, so I went to see this movie with let's say a positive prejudice. But this movie turned out a complete failure. I couldn't sit through the whole movie, so I left early. It was god awful. A child wouldn't write this screenplay, that bad. Probably one of the worst movies I ever saw, if not the worst movie. Complete waste of precious time and money, I wouldn't recommend anyone.
