Pek Yakinda

Beside it's funny and tasty as Cem Yılmaz's finest work: Her sey cok guzel olacak, it's also good to see a lot of references to some Turkish movies. Eskiya (1995) is one of them. Cem Yılmaz really knows his job. The movie has a lot of good jokes and sad moments. Cem Yılmaz is father of his son, you can see its reflection in the script.

One more thing about the movie is Zafer Algöz's acting. It's getting more glorious over the years. Cem Yılmaz has been taking advantage of working with familiar faces again. Ozkan Ugur and Ozan Guven is killing the stage again.

Don't take attention of bad comments, just try to watch and understand the movie...

Those who need to sort movies into various categories, who see drama as a baddies versus goodies game, who think heroes are only deadly serious supermen on a mission to save the world, those who think that digital effects can substitute the absence of creative imagination and that improvisation and clowning around pertain only to stand-up comedies... those people should not try to understand this wonderful film. Because nothing is as it seems in the world of cinema, only the people involved in it are real, their fates and their professional objective to complete the project. "Pek Yakında" was made by clever people for a creative audience and leaves a lot open to interpretation. Each cast and crew member find their own way, and the theme grows and matures without losing its integrity. There are no minor roles in the usual sense. Two characters, Zafer and Boğaç, seem to be pivotal to the plot, oscillating between self-deception, self-destruction, flight of fancy, despondency and a fatal love of their profession. Cem Yılmaz' and Ozan Güven's splendid acting performances make these characters natural and convincing, and create them with an engaging self-irony, far from any showy pathetic effects. Well plotted, creatively done. Directing, music, camera and so on, deserve respect. One of the most inspirational films about filmmaking and the people around it.

Cem yilmaz's movies have subtle references that you may know/understand if you watch carefully and know about other movies. I like the part for Eskiya movie where he gives a hug as if like to represent all others who watched that movie and wanted to give a hug to Eskiya which is about die. Very good movie and very good cast!

Let me start by saying this movie is pretty darn good. Good acting, amazing cast, and the best of all are those tiny details that make you chuckle. This movie is by no means is just a run off the mill cheap comedy or a stand-up show.

Watch it and pay attention to details.. You will at least like it if not truly enjoy it. Especially if you grew up in Turkey and know the "Yesilcam" culture. I loved all the references made those movies we all watched and loved as kids.

Some of the reviews I read on this site was really unfortunate. I couldn't help but notice most of the bad reviews was also written in not so good English. Not trying to be mean or anything but please; just stop!!! (Not "Green Pine" like some idiot said. Seriously??? Do you call Hollywood "Kutsal Odun"?) What's with you people?

Anyway, bottom line is; I really enjoyed this movie and would recommend everyone to watch it. Keep up the good work Cem :)

He is really a man! He does good job. For me, it started and finished in a moment. Not boring. Many emotions . Congratulates!
