Tosun Pasa

it's a real funny film that will guaranteed to make you laugh. an incredible cast and brilliant performances make this film a master piece for Turkish cinema. it's about a poor (and a bit stupid) man who acts as Tosun Pasa who is a strong, rich and famous commander. lucky for the poor man that the people who he tries to deceive have never seen Tosun Pasa before. from then some romance and lots of comedy is waiting for you to watch and have fun. it's not a wonderful story by all means though, but it doesn't mean that the film isn't good. it's a wonderful film that will make you laugh and feel good. definitely 5 out of 5! and if you like this film (you're gonna like it!), then check out "Sut Kardesler" and the series of "Hababam Sinifi".

I think most of the Turkish people are agree with me that tosun paþa is the one of the best films in turkey. First of all in the film there are lots of great players like kemal sunal,sener sen,adile nasit,aysen gruda..etc. They are great players who were played usually in comedy films which become classics like süt kardeþler,gulyabani and davaro. And film scenario was written by yavuz turgul who directed eskiya,muhsin bey and golge oyunu. Well they are great movies too. Finally words cannot be enough to describe the greatness of this great film,you have to watch this film.(but i think its DVD is not on the sell)

This movie is one of the best movies of Turkey. Like "Sabanoglu Saban" and "Süt Kardesler" Halit Akçatepe, Kemal Sunal and Sener Sen showed superb performance. If you want to laugh just watch one of these tree movie. These tree actors really great actors. also Ertem Egilmez (The director of the movie) is a great director. So the product of these actors and director of course will be the best.. The events between two important families "Telliogullarý" and "Seferogullarý", Their struggle for "green valley" was told. The intelligent! man Sener Sen try to get Green walley by introduce Kemal Sunal, the male servant of telliogullarý family, as Tosun Pasha. However, Tosun Pasha is the most powerful Pasha of the Palace.

All the story is about a man who is totally clumsy and unskillful. It's great opportunity for a view for Turkish tradition and ancient lifestyle. All the wits are not only for Turks , i can say all for globally.

First i can say during the one a half hour my brain is totally shocked for the jokes who are very simples and pleasurable. It' s not a sitcom like the American ones. There are many place in this movie who have a historical value.

For the final words i can say enjoy it and if you can watch in original language and customized subtitle.

If someone says I can watch a movie 5-10 times a year of course you don't believe. But this film makes it true. In Turkey there is no one who doesn't know Tosun Pasha. When you are a child you watch and laugh at the performers (especially Kemal Sunal, Sener Sen facial expressions) ,then after years you realize the film is satirical by many ways.Every time you watch the movie you can realize a different point.But it is sad many of the performers in this film are not between us.Yavuz Tugrul is a good film writer,still making good films and day by day he is getting better.I'm impatient to watch his last film Gonul Yarasi.
