Ask Tesadüfleri Sever

I am older and have been watching movies for six decades. From start to finish, this movie gripped me emotionally. The range of emotion extended well beyond anything I have ever experienced from a cinematic work. I would not call it "cheesy" or criticize that there were too many coincidences. One way or the other, the storyline reaches down and touches the viewer deeply.

I'm trying to watch many foreign movies to get introduced to different cultures. Plus, Hollywood does not interest me as much as it used to be.

However, I've never thought of watching a Turkish movie before because I'm not a fan of Turkish series so I thought why should I.

Anyways, let me tell something. I'm glad I've changed my mind and I'm glad I picked this one.

Hence the title, this movie is FULL of coincidences! So if you are too stuck to reality, don't watch it cause it will be shallow, silly and full of nonsense! Let us dreamers enjoy it

TBH, lots of what happened in the movie is considered to be crazy coincidences but that did not ruin it for me. Love is a strange thing, is it not?

The lead actor and actress did a great job not to mention the lovely chemistry between the two of them. You can feel their love, I'm serious :)

Firstly I've never watched a Turkish film before, in fact never one other than that's come from Hollywood or either Britain. We found this on Netflix and the description of the film sounded good so we thought we would give it a go. Needless to say this film left us speechless, it is an absolute gem. The main actress is better than anything we have seen in the west and the story is light years ahead of most films in recent history. Hollywood could learn a lot from the people who made this. A masterpiece!

I watched the movie "Ask Tesadüfleri Sever" - "Love Likes Coincidences" tonight the 11th of February 2011, and loved it by all means... In a movie, if you don't believe in a few coincidences, it is one thing, but in this movie, the story telling is a musical coincidences symphony in which two parallel lives, a love and the people circling around are successfully portrayed.

Ömer Faruk Sorak is a powerful director who makes the spectator find a place for him/herself a place in the story. He just finds the tempo and lets the river flow... Mehmet Günsür & Belçim Bilgin as the two main characters just fit in too... Especially Mehmet Günsür with his performance and charisma gives the movie the energy it needs. I'd like to congratulate Gökçe Doruk Erten as the director of casting too.. Since the movie covers a story of two people from their ages 7-10 up to end of 20's it is actually difficult to cast a continuum and that was done superb. In many successful American movies you sometimes get shocked by the casting of characters by different actors in such a long and evoluting piece of time.

Also an Oscar goes to Ipek Sorak who has created a perfect symphony of coincidences that lead to a touching love with her concept & story.

Thanks for all the efforts, I can say "Ask Tesadüfleri Sever" is the best Turkish movie I've watched for the last few years.

I have made this account a few minutes ago...I thought I have so much to say about the story of this movie,about my review here...But now I find myself speechless... And I must specify,I'm not a great fan of love movies.Plus,I was against movies in other languages but English.I have decided this evening to try it anyway. But this one...the most beautiful film I have ever seen! It made me wonder if such coincidences happened in my life or in the life of my friends,family...I was planning to watch another movie after this one,but I don't wanna do it anymore.I want to go to sleep with these feelings,with this story in my head. I'm not so easy to impress generally,specially about love movies and dramas. Well,this one got me!
