Arif V 216

If you want unterstand this film you must watch G.O.R.A. and A.R.O.G.

Firstly, it has elements from GORA. If you didn't watch GORA, i recommend to watch it before.

This movie has many references to particular movies. I don't really recommend to watch this movie if you are not Turkish or have information about Turkish Cinema. Because most of the references about old Turkish movies.

It was absorbing until end but ending disappointed me a little. Even though it was the best Cem Yilmaz movie for me.

Ben cok begendim tavsiye ederim. Devaminin gelmesi temennisiyle...

If you are a non-Turkish moviegoer, most of this movie might make no sense at all. For the uninitiated, it's just another sci-fi comedy revolving around an odd couple who goes back to the past and messes everything up hilariously. However, for a Turkish person, it is full of references to black-and-white melodramatic movies, colorful yet still melodramatic musicals and so forth. In addition, Arif and 216 are already well-known and much-liked by the Turkish audience from their previous roles in GORA and AROG.

The movie uses many cliches of old Turkish films by twisting or combining them in a weird way to create comedy plots. And, it is clear that particularly Sadri Alisik has a special place for Cem Yilmaz, because the film heavily borrows themes and stroylines from his works.

It's a solid 5 for the internationals and 7 for the Turkish audience.

Do not listen to ruthless criticism. it is a movie that will take place in the upper rows. These kinds of movies should be watched in the cinema. The musics in movie was very good. i recommend to watch this movie without any prejudices. and congratulations on making this movie.
