Amor Em Foco

This movie is a feel-good light movie with very little drama.

The plot is okay although it could have been made better by having great script writing and storytelling yet they did wonderful with the amazing views of landscape and I really loved the lighting and the filter of this movie especially with every scene of the girl.

To me, it just felt like they focused more on the visuals of the actress and scenery more than the whole story and the acting as it lacked to connect with the viewers.

Still, this is an okay movie to watch if you want to watch an undramatic romantic movie with beautiful landscapes.

The Decoupling between Deniz and Sahra was magnificent. The characters were combined with the full script. But the script was very simple. They did a very classic job. They used an ancient city like Assos as a filming location. It was really perfect. But as I said, the script could have been written better. A classic romantic/drama film has appeared. Grandmothers were very sweet. I was very amused by his novice attitude. In addition, the side characters also added a separate atmosphere to the film. Their support for the story was quite great. In short, I knew how the events would end during the process of watching the film. It turned out to be an easy job to guess. However, Ana, this did not prevent me from enjoying the movie while watching. The camera angles were very nice.

6.2/10 (Recommend)

This is a cute Turkish film that falls within the parameters of a Hallmark film without strictly being called a Hallmark film. The chemistry between the leads Ayça Aysin Turan (Sahra) and Ekin Koç is perfect. From the moment of the their reunion to the moment of their bond is all built up beautifully. The film still holds a certain cheesiness to it, but it works. I truly enjoyed the exoticness of not the middle of nowhere USA. For me it's hard to grasp the full emotion of the film as I get distracted from reading the subtitles, but I catch myself appropriately and the emotional moments are still touching despite having to switch between reading words and seeing the visual cues.

Thanks to a friend I've been trying to get myself more into foreign films and expand my genres and taste. This is one film I am definitely happy I checked out. It's perfect for a cuddle night on the couch. The build-up is good and the story works out to a tee. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a romcom that's a little fresh.

That's all for now. Thank you for taking the time to read my review. Until next time.... Enjoy the show!

The meddling grandmothers of Sahra and Deniz have decided enough is enough. Their two grandchildren were the best of friends growing up, until one summer when it seems that they could have been more, and afterwards it's clear to everyone that they are avoiding one another. Sahra has a rival at work and is desperate to get an exclusive interview with a reluctant and reclusive photographer. Coincidentally and unbeknownst to Sahra, Deniz is the reclusive photographer she is desperate to interview. The meddling grandmother's bring the two to their neighboring homes at the same time to attempt to get them talking again...and ultimately nature takes its course.

Ekin Koc, who plays Deniz, really makes this movie for me. His character is very romantic and how he shares his continued love for Sahra just squeezed my heart. Absolutely gorgeous seaside backdrop for this romance and Ayça Aysin Turan who plays Sahra is lovely.

I think fans of romance will enjoy this story and it is a recommendation to those romantics who are ok watching a film in Turkish.

This review is based on watching this film in it's original Turkish language with English subtitles.

I loved the movie: nice plot, funny and lighthearted. A real feel good movie, perfect for Summer. The female lead actress Ayca Aysin Turan is beautiful, funny and charismatic. I don't think I have ever seen a more beautiful woman in my life. The male lead is less charismatic but overall they make a nice couple. I think I read somewhere the movie was filmed in Asos, Turkey. What a beautiful place, it made for the perfect location for a romcom. I think for everyone reading it's definitely worth to check the movie out, you won't regret it. It has all the ingredients you want and need for a feelgood Summer romcom.
