Do Not Disturb

I am 50 years old and love this pitch black comedy drama. Colors, music, dialogs get me into an abyss. As the movie goes deeper on sequence, main character Isaac puts me into an unrest feeling, thrill. Almost having the same feelings, stress like Isaac. Very well staged, played. Isaac character could be the combination of well observed characters Cem encountered in his early life in Beyoglu, Taksim. This becomes my favorite movie among all his productions. Good is not always beautiful, i think this could be the motto of this movie. A mind opener, table top, extravagant painting this movie is. 1.

If you think that this will be your average Turkish feel-good movie - think again... The start, even up until half of the movie, takes you one way to then take on a veeery dark twist, because anguish has just entered the building as a guest - a crazy night at a Turkish motel indeed.

I would definitely recommend this movie to everyone who wants to be a bit surprised. Nice camera work and the actors have also been well-chosen. Deals with many currently relevant topics like social media and mental health. Liked the fact that I had no idea how exactly this movie is going to end - definitely not predictable!

If you follow the interviews of CY, you will see a lot of references to his personal views on people / typologies in social media. The subject and the flow of the story is nice.

I just did not like the parts related to the academician character. I found them too didactive and a little bit cliche.

Another explicitly cliche story was reference to the violence against woman.

If CY stops this didactive attitude, his movies will be much much better. He says he doesn't care much what critics say, but I think he cares too much and this causes him to be not totally free with the story.

The dance scene in pharmacy is epic!

He constantly thinks, puts in effort, spends time, money and all his resources for this aim, walking around the outside line and tries to bring us to that side. Thank you and we are so lucky for having you Cem Baba.

Çaresizseniz çare sizsiniz!

I am proud that we have Cem Yilmaz in Turkish cinema, but I think we still haven't seen his maximum potential.

I saw and loved the character of Ayzek in the movie '2 Arada' and it was the strongest movie among the Dark/Comedy Movies and the character was well written.

But I didn't get the same strong feeling for this movie in general. I think the movie has a very sympathetic first half and what it wants to tell is clear, but in the second half, while giving the psychological thriller part, it gets boring and that sympathetic part we know was going to the background for me. But I found the acting, scene cuts and shots quite adequate. I wish it had a very strong script.

Especially the ending was very predictable. I wish they were in search of something different. Still, it is a snack movie that can be watched in the evening.
