Dag II

I will be honest, 9.9 points too high. There is the influence of nationalism. If you have big expectations, you will be disappointed. If we vote worldwide, this movie 7,5/10 (Ok, OK... Still a little bit of nationalism ^^), but if we vote for Turkish cinema, this movie 9/10. This is a great, and different job for Turkish cinema. Apart from that, it's a classic war movie with some stereotypes, that's all. Don't expect anything different.

Yes, Dag II(Mountain II) a nice war movie. But, don't compare with American war movies that cost 100 million dollar. That would be unfair. Because, Dag II's budget 2.000.000 Turkish Lira, it means ~550.000 dollar. But, Dag II is the best job that can be done with this budget.

Explosion effects can be better but passable(budget). Uniforms, weapons, equipment are real, taken from Turkish Armed Forces.

The movie is starting perfectly. The action is perfect in the second half. The conflict scenes were pretty good.

Dag II isn't like the first movie. The Dag was a struggle for survival. But Dag II a heroic story. Dag II is a different and much bigger movie. These guys are specially trained to kill but they aren't emotionless machines. Dag II shows this very well. They stay in dilemma, do the right thing, or just do your task. It's a tough decision and it can change a lot of things.

I can not wait for Dag III. With a much larger budget, as a bigger movie.

Also, if you want to watch another military movie from Turkish cinema, you should watch "Nefes: Vatan Sagolsun". There is a different, emotional and very impressive theme.

I've seen the movie just a bit earlier and although my expectations were very high, this movie satisfied me very well. As we already know Turkish movie sector has lack of visual effects. That is actually the reason behind why we usually don't enjoy Turkish Action kind of films. But in this movie we see lots of great examples of best visual effects. And also it has its own realistic scenes as well. The connection between soldiers were so great, enthusiastic and natural. Also the connection between the first movie with this one was great so this movie actually deserves its rate. Besides from good visual and sound effects the movie has also its own story-line which was perfect. As I mentioned before even though my expectations were really high this movie is even beyond my expectations. Thanks for letting us joy this kind of masterpiece Mr. Alper Caglar.

I saw this without seeing the first part but still I thoroughly enjoyed the film. The Mountain II shows perspective on both sides both civilian, the military and the journalist. It shows also why journalist do what they do show the cruelty that is in the world and why they criticize violence against violence and human rights. It shows also the civilians who fall in between as victims and the conflict of standing by to do your duty or doing what you know is right. The Mountain II is movie that makes you realize how life is precious and how honour and duty.

The explanation by the team leader to this fellow commando on saving the journalist was top notch. Even the contents of the letter which team leader gives to journalist was very well done.

In this movie we see a lots of great examples of best visual effects. And also it has its own realistic scenes as well. The connection between soldiers were so great, enthusiastic and natural.

I give this movie my highest recommendation. If you want to watch military movie from Turkish cinema, you should watch this movie. Must watchable movie.

I don't usually watch foreign films before but this was a in-depth amazing film. It has character building. It shows perspective on both sides both civilian and the military on their ideas on how to build a better world. Stunning cinematography and incredible dialogues. It makes you understand why to become a soldier is not all about glory but really to serve it's people. It shows also why journalist do what they do show the cruelty that is in the world and why they criticize violence against violence and human rights. It shows also the civilians who fall in between as victims and the conflict of standing by to do your duty or doing what you know is right. Here you will really have an understanding on what it really means to serve and have a country. On further note: If it's true that the Turks army do not curse then I have deeper respect for that kind of military discipline. A REAL Officer and a gentlemen. My hats off to the maker of this film. You should be proud on making this film and sharing it to the world.

If you are not exposed to Turkish culture and atmosphere, you should not watch this film because there is nothing aimed at you. This film makes sense and bring home to only those people. I cannot say it is a 9 rated film but it is a decent film, maybe one of the best films ever made in Turkey. If you expect it will have some American or European cultural ideas, there is not even a mention and it will disappoint you at the end of the film. There is no intention to make a Turkish Army propaganda in the plot and I must say some of critics are stereotypically underestimating the Turkish Army which is not the one as same as in the film's so these all the comments are wrong (perhaps this is another disappointment for some people). They have only created a story about military soldiers and the messes they deal with and it is only a cinema film.
