Hür Adam: Bediüzzaman Said Nursi

In my opinion,

First, generally i don't like documents. But i really like that one because the story was depicted very well. Crew was good there could be more famous actors but it is OK.

Secondly, talking aboutwhat u get from this film is about what u want. It is an biography andSaid Nursi is an intellectual. Of course, the film should involve somenotions, but it doesn't make any Islamic or Kurdish propaganda. Itdoesn't impose any notion just show about Said Nursi's point of view.Also if you have some information about his life and his thoughts it isbeneficial for you to get the plot.

Finally, I strongly recommend thatfilm, Said Nursi is a scholar who has a great importance. After youwatch that film you will have an opinion about his ideas.

Everyone should watch it, if likes him or not.

I believe everyone can watch this documentary, yet, my perspective is that it would be most interesting to Said Nursi's readers and students. It's significance is not in film methods, but in his story and teachings. If you have love for a teacher, you will love even a 10 hour film, and wish it didn't end. Said Nursi was a scholar, preacher, a wise and kind soul, which translated well in the movie. The little boy's relationship with the teacher was the perfect touching element here.

I thoroughly enjoyed learning about this man and the historical events of that time. I watched it over a few sittings as I had to follow the English subtitles. I thought it was really well scripted and acted - the characters seemed very real. A very motivational film and I feel glad that I watched it.

This is a very ambitiously made film trying to give the audience an accurate account of the life of famous Turkish preacher Said Nursi, a.k.a. Said Kurdi (Said the Kurd) or his nickname Bediuzzaman (the wonder of the age). In this the film succeeds. His main teachings of scientific progress without abandoning religion and brotherly love and unity between Turks and Kurds are also wonderfully told.

The main criticisms I have for this film are three fold. The movie was made by a fan for other fans,and as such is less accessible for people who do not know anything about Said Nursi. As a fan I would have wanted it to be more accessible to the general public. The second point is the length and breadth of the film. At 3 hours, it's far too long and the story becomes unnecessarily convoluted. The third is the lack of characterful actors and story arcs. Except for Mursid Aga Bag who plays Said Nursi, the only memorable supporting actor is Ahmet Yenilmez, who only plays a small roll as the guard, but shines at it.

Unfortunately role playings disaster!! And the scenario doesn't explains the truths... Completely shows the Republic looks like anti-Islamic thing. Main character "Said-i Nursi" also known as "Said-i Kurdi" which is mean "Said the Kurdish" Thats why during the whole movie this matter doesn't shown and Said-i Nursi appearing looks like a republican and non radical Islamic.Actually in my mind the director and producer really made a good camouflage about to shows his real behaviors and thinks. The film shows like Republican politics had been opposite to the Islam religion and who believe to it..Thats why I can say that this movie a political purposed film which are contains a lot of exaggerations.
