2 Genç Kiz

This Book-based movie is truly awful, and a big disappointment. We've been waiting for this move over a month. Many film reviewer were hopeful for it. Also in newspapers and TV, it made big sense. When 29th April comes, many people regretfully noticed that movie is really awful. Why? First of all story was so monotone. It has been many indefinite scenes, sometimes it's hard to realize what's going on. The actresses, out of Hulya Avsar, weren't harmonized with their roles, especially Vildan Atasever. She acts better in comedy films, In this movie, a kind of drama, she couldn't disposed of her previous role. And finally Movie is too short, just 66 minutes.

This film was just shown in the London film festival and I must say what an excellent piece of cinematographic art it is. It is not just a nice story but it brilliantly portrays the female role as perceived in the supposedly modern Turkish society. Although the finale is nothing like something out of a fairy tale with a perfect ending, it definitely makes a mark and proves its point: the emancipation of women and how stereotypes, stigmas and even physical and psychological pressure and abuse cannot repress inner strength and joie de vivre as one could say.

I thought the movie was brilliantly interpreted and the comic references were certainly well put forward by both the director and the actresses. Well done.

This movie is about the different thoughts on life and incidents of two girls that are about to enter womanhood. Behiye is a character that does not accept the roles of ordinary woman and as a result she is rebellious. Handan is a girl that is having the trauma of a dissolved family and he needs and searches for love. Also, she does not have friend. The movie is about their passionate and unbalanced friendship. In my opinion, acting is a little bit hyperbolic and this fact made me harder to believe the story. Finally, it is good movie in illuminating us about women's point of viewbut the cinematography and the acting was bad

The film was so different from expectations. Because Mr Ataman has chosen an unusual style for Turkish cinema. He decided to tell the differences between two girls and didn't put any murder in a film ... Feride Cetin who plays Behiye, was really amazing. She is a short movie director in Turkiye but her first acting performance was unbelievable. I hope she continues acting. Behiye the rebellious girl who lives in a suburb. She's a tough attitude in life because she has no friends and her family finds her crazy. It's a benefit to see suburbs and underground parts of Istanbul. The film stands far away from the Turkish classical cinema. Esp. Behiye is a clever girl who doesn't accepts to be an ordinary girl despite she's good cooking girl. Replikas, Turkish rock group, made great music for Behiye's scenes. Also the other Turkish popular songs that are used in movie are OK for the spirit of movie.

in turkey, a couple of directors are auteur directors and kutlug ataman, who directed famous movie "lola and bilidikid", is one of them. when two little girls is watched first, of course, it seems a familiar story about little girls which discover what the complex and modern life is. because this story comes from a book, named "iki genc kizin romani" and written by perihan magden who is a ordinary writer, but ataman overcomes to differentiate a familiar story. ataman, as a smart director, uses a number of soundtracks in this movie that have famous Turkish alternative rock bands like replikas, zen (babazula) and all of musics makes this movie funny. i think if you want to watch a modern Turkish movie, you can choose this movie.
