Yolun Açik Olsun

Heart breaking story about consequences of war. The story of the friendship of captain Salih and liutenant Kerim is tell in a way of a very particular road trip, one that to understand you will need to watch with attention.

The acting is outstanding, as well as the music and photography.

I highly recommend this story to people that like touching and well acting dramas.

The film, adapted from Hakan Evrensel's novel of the same name, produced by Lanistar Media and Same Film, directed by Mehmet Ada Öztekin, starring Engin Akyürek and Tolga Saritas, was released on Netflix on May 23, 2022.

Mehmet ada oztekin definitely understood this job...

Öztekin is always in the director's chair whenever there is a work on netflix that can be watched lately.

The movie is technically very good.

4k dolby vision image and 5.1.2 channel dolby atmos sound reinforce the story of the movie.

I felt those explosions and gunshots in my heart...

The original name of this movie is "Yolun Acik Olsun", which literally translates to "May Your Road be Open" in English. The prayer itself might be manifested throughout the movie in that the road might be constantly open, but oh boy are there some sharp turns that makes you wish for a full stop... Always make sure your prayers are fully-inclusive lmao

I presume the Turkish cinema was waiting for the economy to collapse to sublime in producing top-of-the-class movies such as this. I'm not going to give any information regarding what happens in the movie, just go ahead and dive.

Good luck in coping with the after-effects of this movie; a cold shower usually works.

The film is a masterpiece with its cinematography, music scoring, plot, performances by the actors... Endless thanks to everyone who contributed to this: symphony of landscapes, the harmony of notes, the poetry of gazes, the visual feast of the performances, the ocean-depth of emotions.

Yolun Acik Olsun aka Godspeed, a movie that stirs you from start to finish. I still haven't recovered from the disturbing and unexpected ending. A sweet-bitter happy ending, but behind this ending are hidden truths, traumas that you only get over if you make the ultimate sacrifice. A masterful interpretation. Engin Akyurek was Salih to the bone. Every look, every line brings a drop of the drama that is about to be revealed until the end. The traumas of war, the connection between the two comrades-in-arms, the promises made that must be fulfilled, the consequences that war brings on everyone's lives are so well and sensibly rendered, without force, without unnecessary violence. A story from which many lessons can be learned.

Bravo Engin Akyurek 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Bravo Tolga Saritas 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 On top of that, Toygar Isikli soundtrack 👍🏻
