Mavi Magara

The basic virtue is the construction of story. And, sure, the beginning of romance, the promisse of retirement , the blue cave as symbol and the smart use of ambiguity.

Not ignoring the acting.

A love story like so many others. The nice intention to give to it a personal touch and a not dessapointed result , the crumbs of fairy tale of relation between marine officer and his future wife , archeologist, looking just fine, especially for the way of hero to truth and the meetings with the significant people of his past.

Not memorable but, obvious, more than nice.

And, in essence, this is the most significant thing defining it.

One of the best films I've seen. The love, the sadness, the loss, the happiness, the fear, it's all here. Everything fits together perfectly. Kerem is a great actor but he has also proven to be a very good and magical writer. The harmony with Devrim was something crazy like their chemistry. I hope they still work together. It's not the usual Turkish film full of clichés, it's different, a journey in search of lost love that turns into something surprising. Kerem and Devrim made the characters their own, making them very real and this is why the story becomes real, naked and raw. The last twenty minutes rip your heart and soul out of your chest. This film must be seen, tears are guaranteed.

Mavi magara is a beautifully shot movie with incredibly likeable characters. The concept of the story is amazing, the characters are top tier. They are so human, so likeable that is rare in movies. The cinematography is gorgeous. Every shot gives the feeling of beauty and is worth it. By the end, I was truly moved, having come to deeply understand the characters and the message the movie was conveyed.

The lead actors Kerem Bürsin and Devrim Özkan delivered a star-making performances. When their eyes meet, there's a tangible connection between them. They make the characters' love feel so real.

I loved to idea of the movie, it was a highly creative story, very well written. Every dialogue had the meaning and hidden message.

The last 30 minutes of the movie I could not stop crying. It was so heartbreaking. If you don't tear up watching the very last scenes, then your heart is made of stone.

The actors played their roles extremely well, especially Kerem Bursin as the main character Cem. I think that this movie is a turning point in his career and we will see him even more in international projects. Playing in local turkish things is just not enough for someone who is as talented as him.

I want to avoid spoilers, so I won't go into details, but I definitely recommend watching this movie. It will leave you with a very special feeling and make you think about life.

I absolutely fell in love with this movie, it went beyond any expectations I had for a Turkish movie, Kerem's writing exceed all my expectations I'm very excited for his future As a screenwriter and for his movies if this was his first screenplay! My only wish it was longer... it also meet Devrim thanks to Kerem and she is a very talented lady! Them 2 together was just chef's kiss the chemistry is undeniable

Kerem outshined any other role I have seen him in with Cem he was simply magnificent in this role I felt every emotion he showed.. the last 20 mins I think I held my breath for the whole final seen! Life and relationships aren't perfect or easy and in Kerem's writing showed that beautifully... Be so so proud yourself Kerem because we are! And I am counting down the days for the next adventure.
