A.R.O.G

Cem Yilmaz, who is the funniest man of Turkiye, has broke another record with this film (with its hilarious and creative scenes of course). Unfortunately, for non-Turkish ppl, like most (even all) of Turkish films, many humours in these scenes were lost, since mostly attributions are about a life of a very classical and easterner Turkish person and his comments about Turkish social, political and cultural life. You will also childish joke scenes which I also didn't enjoy, too. I don't know, but, this must be his way of filming, on the contrary, his shows never make concessions about quality.

Another subject is don't expect a great visual scenes, as this is not a Hollywood film which one of the richest governments in the world supports financially, on the other hand, this is just a Turkish film (not the best one) which a company accepted to be the sponsor of limitedly.

Nevertheless, don't get disappointed yet. The film is more than 2 hours and each 5 minutes include at least one thing to laugh(for all). Well, this is no different indeed for non-Turkish speakers to watch this film or for me to watch "how i met your mother" episodes. I find "how i met your mother" as the funniest show ever, but, sometimes there are a few jokes American-ish. So I think it will mostly make you laugh, while it is important to watch it with a valid subtitle to understand every single joke, as this movie was filmed mostly to make people laugh.

Such a very small explanation for non-Turkish speakers; Ridvan Dilmen is a commentator (and an old footballer) who seems in late minutes in the film. In Turkish matches, whenever he says "it's a goal", well, there the shot then and it is. (damn! he is like a seer!) Well, he was not really the person who we expect to see in that scene all of a sudden.

Oh, I'd almost forget! Have I told you what record Cem Yilmaz broke with this movie? His first film, GORA, had been watched by about 1 million people in three days in Turkiye. Now, this is the third day and I think for AROG, this number has already rised up and still is rising...

First of all I'am a huge fan of cem yilmaz, I adored his stand-up shows and the movies he played in. The first movie he made himself was G.O.R.A. He did play in it, write it and did the directing with Ömer Faruk Sorak(Vizontele). The movie was about Turks in space, it was a very good movie, the jokes were hilarious and I gave it a 10. Now he made the sequel A.G.O.R. with another director Ali Taner Baltaci which was a co-assistant at vizontele. The sequel is this time about Turks in the pre-historic time. The movie wasn't what I expacted at all. The effect were lots of better than the first part, but the movie was boring and the jokes weren't funny expact 2 or 3 jokes. I really wonder why this movie was so bad was it because of Ali Taner Baltaci? or is Cem Yilmaz not so funny as he supposed to be?

It's great I still know the jokes by heart.

Cem Yilmaz.....

Arog is by far the worst movie that Cem Yilmaz has ever made. He used a simple plot, amateur actors like in all his other movies. But unlike others, he could not get a warm, entertaining movie. There were not big laughs in any of the jokes which were mostly about Turkish idioms. The plot was boring, I counted minutes towards the end. Lot's of money spent and they used the technology right. However, if the story is bad and the jokes are bad, this cannot help the movie out.

I feel that Cem is not very funny any more. He should spend more time to find jokes and construct a movie. Writing a script in a short time is not working out for him any more.

This movie is a masterpiece from the most comic comedian of Turkey.I want congratulate Cem Yılmaz because of this movie.The movie is about a man named with Arif.Arif is a characteristic guy.He has been going to past times with using a time machine.He became friend with somebody on the past and he started to teach them modern things.He made the first football match,making graffiti to caves.At the end he came back to normal time.It is a nice science fiction comedy.Maybe ı watched it for two times.In Turkey this film cutted records.I think you shopuld watch it if you want to laugh.I made this rewiev with my friend Deniz.Thank you for reading.
