Recep Ivedik

İ really gave the film 3 stars.Not because it deserved it but people took some time for it. I failed to understand people pay a good deal of money to watch this thing on a theater.There are free shows in some animal channels focusing on furry animals, acting the same mating behaviors. Well, the film may be funny because of its irrational anti hero but that popularşty, that idol.Come on, the guy is on the commercials now.I guess there is a mass delusion around.Is this what reflects us? I can say that just because of our own mentality, we will never reach up to some certain points.This field is one of them. And there are many fans of that furry animal i know.I feel pity for those who pay to this film while having a girlfriend next to them.

I really enjoyed this film. I had some doubts (prejudice rather) about it previously, due to a lot of people around me despising it. Therefore I haven't seen it until I saw bits of the sequel, and realised that I've really missed out on a remarkably funny movie. Yes it has elements of toilet humour, balls humour etc... But it's a comedy and it's bloody funny! The fact that some people of more "ordinary" taste in cinema might enjoy it too does not make it a lousy movie. Obviously it's not up there with the best of its genre, but it does what it says on the tin. Sahan Gokbakar has created a rather primitive character that is all but too familiar to Turkish audiences, thanks to similar movies and -what the heck- the man on the street! But the character also has a genuinely funny (not talking about the toilet humour) and sometimes surprisingly intelligent side to him.

I have a good taste in movies, but I'm not ashamed to say that I really enjoyed the 100-minutes I spent watching Recep Ivedik. I must say though, that it primarily appeals to a Turkish audience who would be familiar with the context. It may be perceived as a low-budget Borat copy by others.

I think my understanding of comedy has changed as time has passed. Farting didn't seem funny to me anymore, when I first watched it I was a kid, a teenager and the first movie was funny to me. I watched other movies too -_- What did I do?? The Movie is very, very bad.

I can't say waste of time for Recep Ivedik because i enjoyed in a couple of scenes while i was watching it.Maybe it wasn't a brilliant comedy movie,but you can watch this for laughing.But don't wait very much.

But i can't understand most of people who watched this movie.After one month they can still make same jokes for each other and they can still laugh.Maybe some of the jokes was good in movie but after movie making the same jokes again and again is really boring.

Finally i can say that Recep Ivedik isn't a good comedy but not very bad at all.You don't lose much if you just skip over it.

The amount of bad ratings this movie has gotten over these recent years might come from a phonomonea that i call "lost in generation", where a film that used to be revolutionary gets rotten with the growing movie industry, and the company is still making sequels like its their mario, so this movie, from a 2008 perspective is great, but for a modern viewer, this would be weird for them, there has been greater films then this, and i always call this "Turkiye's Shrek", due to how edgy it is (plus the fart jokes), so if you like that sort of comedy, go for it, nobody is stoping you, but it isn't #1.
