Ali Baba ve 7 Cüceler

To me Cem Yılmaz is the funniest person in Turkey by far! But the film i watched yesterday was not funny that much. Maybe this was because of my high expectation level, maybe it was really not good enough. Although Cem Yılmaz always has positive credits from my perspective, i can easily say that this was his worst film. I know that he has the talent to do much better movies. Because he has a brilliant sense of humour.Although he has great ideas, i can not say the same thing about his direction performance. I think he ought to work with better professionals to convert his great ideas to great movies. Because, compare to his stand- up shows, his movies are really sucks. As a Cmylmz lover i expect better movies from him.

p.s: The Russian girl was really beautiful but her performance was one of the worst performance i have seen recently!

I watched the movie today. As a Cem Yilmaz fan, I can easily say that this movie was the worst Cem Yilmaz movie ever. Playing two different character as a Cem Yılmaz is always a good idea. It was the only good thing for this movie. Cem Yilmaz is very clever and creative person. So, we were expecting more creative and funny movie but it was so boring. Some people leaved the theater before the end. I believe that Cem Yilmaz's next movie will be better than Ali Baba ve 7 Cüceler. In summary, I cannot say "you should watch this movie in theater". If you have time and you are a Cem Yilmaz fan like me, you can watch it in theater. Otherwise you may watch it from DVD or something else.

Cem Yılmaz(and his team) is great at synthesizing original works out of clichés. If you focus on short moments you'll be bored but overall it feels different. This movie aligns with that premise. The parts about the struggle of common Turkish people with foreign languages and Europe -Bulgaria in particular- are hilarious. Some impressive cold war era gadgets were on scene. Commercial product placements were smart and not irritating.

Cons: it's nowhere near Yahşi Batı, even the late appearance of Zafer Algöz could not raise the bar. The content was insufficient to justify the movie length, it should end in 90 minutes at most. Overall 6.5/10

Hello everybody! As a Turkish movie watcher and an occasional IMDb.com reviewer, I feel obligated to write my review for this one. First of all, Cem Yilmaz is a well-known stand-up comedian in Turkey. He is the director and the leading actor in this film. As the screening began only a few days ago, I am least affected by commentaries. Well, the beginning of the movie was awesome, the jokes come one after another. I think Cem Yilmaz has clearly resolved what Turkish people want to see in jokes, various situations created by illiterate people or upstarts and their conversations being garnished with a bunch of f-words. With notoriously increasing censorship in Turkey, his movies will always be among top- rated ones in Turkey. When this movie is screened on TV someday, in my opinion 90 percent of jokes will be censored and we will be watching something different. Therefore, well done Cem for reminding us of our sense of humor and for not being overwhelmed with self-censorship like most comedians. As for criticism, I found the second-half of the movie and the ending a bit too long. The story development could have been better. The old hand, Zafer Algöz, is introduced too late in the movie. The religious-looking guy could have been much better. Last but not least, Irina Ivkina is gorgeous. Thanks Cem for introducing us such a beauty. In my opinion, she is more beautiful than Bond girls. All in all, I believe that this movie will be among the best in comedy genre this year in Turkey.

Cem's first films, such as G.O.R.A and A.R.O.G, are a masterpiece for the history of Turkish movies. However, in 2015 and later, we see that the attraction in his films has disappeared. He now produces films for his commercial concern. We can say this by looking at the increase his films in recent years. And their latest films are not as effective as their old movies. I'm not saying anything to his direction or editing, he's above standards. But I think he should do a self criticism as well. I think this film has nothing to distinguish it from other Turkish films. A kind of movie that people can watch when they get bored.
