À la gorge

Netflix presents us with many international movies, some good and some bad. In the case of Boga Boga, it's a very divisive film. Some people will love the movie because it's so different, but others will hate it for that very reason. However, I neither hated nor loved it, I found it to be an average film that has some highs and lows. He's pretty slow and that's something that will put some people off. At certain times the fact that it is slow helps a lot in the immersion and development of the film, on the other hand, at other times it becomes tiring. When a more frantic scene occurs, the director manages to do it in a well-executed way. The story is very interesting and thought-provoking, but the plot twist is pretty dull and its revelation leaves something to be desired. It's a movie I loved watching and most likely I'll watch it again in a while.

First of all the movie is very slow and most of the scenes consist of Yalin (Kivanc) being paranoid. He basically forked a lot of people over by stealing their money and he actually got away with it. So naturally Turkish people, being extra spitefull and triggered, have to have their revenge.

The funny thing is that even the police tells Yalin that the whole village will be hunting him down and that they will not help him. And that is basically the summary of the movie: angry village people trying to kill Yalin amd how he deals with it.

The suspence scenes are good. Eventhough there are a lot of unecesseray scenes Kivanc and Funda's acting remains well-round. The ending has a plottwist that tries to invite the viewers to a discussion about the power of money in Turkey.

No escape when it comes to my puns you say? It may be something different, but you'll have to watch the movie to know, so no pun intended. The title, the original one sounds a bit strange to say the least. Kind of dubious in a way. Kind of something you have to figure out - like the main character. Do you feel for him, having lost so much - or are you more sympathetic with the "others"? As the movie progresses you will know - actually some may be able to figure it a lot sooner than others.

If you like dramas with great performances, that deliver on ambiguity as well ... well you could choose worse than this movie right here. The movie may leave you with a lot of feelings, not all with a positive vibe ... you'll have to be aware of that and everything will be good ... well maybe not everything...

Definitely a noirish film, not one I could appreciate. I am curious about the writer and what other movies he has written. The main charactor was not the aggresser in his bad deeds, he was just defending himself; except in the end. That was a shock! Interesting how the writer wanted us to know that money talks and can forgive bad deeds. Watching films of locations where I have traveled is always rewarding. The actor is talented and very good looking although they protrayed him as bedraggled and certainly not walking a runway. As I am writing this, I have gone from a 2 star rating to a 7. Just because it was not my cup of tea, I should be fair and reasonable.

It is one of those movies that will be loved or not loved at all. Although the beginning and the course do not seem to give the expected, it is a movie full of social message content that gets better from the middle to the end. Onur Saylak, who has beautifully scripted the hypocrisy of our society was great again. Could have been a 10/10 movie if he could get out of the series format a little more. Colors, camera angles and images are very very successful. He summed up in an instructive way that money is above ethical values. Kivanc Tatlitug and Funda Eryigit remind us many times that they are among the best actors in this country. Watchable 👍🏾
