Dag II

A modern Turkish version of the classic. Very good display of military tactics and weapons and, yes, exactly seven guys (albeit Special Forces) to hold off 200+ heavily armed Daesh with a tank who are attacking a previously defenseless village..

Remember this line:

"There is only one righteous reason in war: Defending the innocent."

When someone sees 9.9 score on IMDb of course the person wants to watch that movie. But i say don't waste your time for this one. The screenplay and the dialogues are really awful. I wonder how it's got this score. There can be two options Turkish patriots can be voted 10 without thinking. And the other one is they opened account just to vote this movie. They couldn't create a deepness in character's psychology and because of that when they shows us the situation it doesn't very important for us.Also unlike most of the action films it doesn't aiming something important in the movie time. But cinematography is nice. It must be, because it has a very high budget for a Turkish movie.

I don't usually watch foreign films before but this was a in-depth amazing film. It has character building. It shows perspective on both sides both civilian and the military on their ideas on how to build a better world. Stunning cinematography and incredible dialogues. It makes you understand why to become a soldier is not all about glory but really to serve it's people. It shows also why journalist do what they do show the cruelty that is in the world and why they criticize violence against violence and human rights. It shows also the civilians who fall in between as victims and the conflict of standing by to do your duty or doing what you know is right. Here you will really have an understanding on what it really means to serve and have a country. On further note: If it's true that the Turks army do not curse then I have deeper respect for that kind of military discipline. A REAL Officer and a gentlemen. My hats off to the maker of this film. You should be proud on making this film and sharing it to the world.

The Turkish producers and directors are doing their job well at the moment! Look at this movie! It is just terrific! I liked the first part of this movie, but the second part is much more better than the first one. They used real artillery, helicopters and real machine guns and rifles in this movie! The MPT76 is the first national Turkish assault rifle and they used it in cooperation with the gun factory MKE. The actors got real military training for a few months before shooting this film in order to increase the realness and always used real military gear and equipment during the shootings! Just go and watch it, you won't regret it!

I saw this without seeing the first part but still I thoroughly enjoyed the film. The Mountain II shows perspective on both sides both civilian, the military and the journalist. It shows also why journalist do what they do show the cruelty that is in the world and why they criticize violence against violence and human rights. It shows also the civilians who fall in between as victims and the conflict of standing by to do your duty or doing what you know is right. The Mountain II is movie that makes you realize how life is precious and how honour and duty.

The explanation by the team leader to this fellow commando on saving the journalist was top notch. Even the contents of the letter which team leader gives to journalist was very well done.

In this movie we see a lots of great examples of best visual effects. And also it has its own realistic scenes as well. The connection between soldiers were so great, enthusiastic and natural.

I give this movie my highest recommendation. If you want to watch military movie from Turkish cinema, you should watch this movie. Must watchable movie.
