O Milagre

Based on a true story was crafted a great film. The power of love in the name of humanity, nature, love of country and unique images accompanied by children. Talented players and a friendly and natural rendering of the theme with them. Disabled man's role is admirable. Artistic nature images from the corner of Eastern Anatolia watchable and catchy. If you are craving of 1960s in the frames of the movie will take you to that date, unless this particular corner of the world. I have to admit, director of this film is also a famous singer and musician but I'm not a big fan of him, but this movie is great. The makers and players need to celebrate.

It is a very sentimental story, but it shows us the human side of people. TOTALLY RECOMMENDED!

Aziz looks up to the sky, shouts and echo effect, slow motion. Aziz shouts and echo effect, slow motion etc etc. Mahsun designed a cheap drama, but not as cheap as designed. It wasn't sincere to take every opportunity to add emotion. The end was too fast. I loved the emotion the movie brought about. But many things were clichés and compulsions.

This is my first review on IMDb. I loved many films but in no case was so motivated to write a review ! I went to "Mucize" (Miracle) with little bits expectations but I was truly overwhelmed with this superb story of Mahsun Kirmizigul. I can not remember another movie where I have cried more then this! It is about people who loves other people without expectations. It is about courage of a man who only wants that children go to school and therefore he moves from his city to a place what you can call "the middle of nowhere"...It is about love what is defined as the key for reach your target...the film looks like real life. All of the characters have played very well but there is one person who have played his role SUPERB ! That is the crazy man : Aziz (Mert Turak) ! The character who plays te handicapped man with a truly amazing emotional bond with his horse. ( I have read somewhere that he has been lived 3 months with the horse to make this possible). He plays the character so perfect that I thought that he really was crazy / handicapped ! In the first half of the movie are so many good jokes that you can think it's a comedy. In the second half the film transforms in a emotional roller-coaster what's putting you in a story that is no more forgettable in your whole live ! A person, who is saying I own a heart, will cry ! There are also more Turkish films like, Eskiya (now in the top 250 of IMDb), babam ve oglum etc. what I can say they were very good but this peace of cinema from early singer Mahsun Kirmizigul is near PERFECT ! See it to believe it. 10 stars out of 10 !

"Aziz" Character is very realistic according to me. All the other villagers are so, except the teacher who is from the Western part of Turkey. Use of the camera is excellent with very beautiful scenes of East Anatolia. However the teacher character is a bit forced/synthetic whatever you may call it. For example he speaks with a heavy Western Turkey accent all through the movie but starts to talk with a Zaza dialect of Kurdish during his first days in the school but his Turkish never changes which is a bit odd. Costumes are hundred percent right for the 60's. To sum up I deem it as a good Turkish movie made in recent times.
