Son Mektup

A man can build a building in 3200 days but 3200 man cant build a building in one hour.This is basic logic.The production of this film is one of the best since many years.However the script is a total disaster.I don't want to mention about the awful directing. The script is full with basic propaganda lines.The writer (writers) wanted to simplify the language however put lines that only existed after decades. Putting a nonsense love story to a epic battle turned the film to the same position like "Pearl Harbour". I didn't like the film "Pearl Harbour" and i definitely didn't like "Son Mektup". Turkish producers and writers have a sick disease to teach people history.To be honest this lessons are mostly useless.Its a film, not a documentary. To the foreword of this review again : "A man can build a building in 3200 days but 3200 man cant build a building in one hour".If you really believe that the production could save this film you will be deeply disappointed.

I was expecting to go back in the history and. Dive into the past with this movie. Unfortunately, it is neither history based real or it gives any entertainment to the audience. The characters are slow, story is unclear but I can only say that they tried best to show the past environment colorful and clean. Neither the soldiers nor the nurses (it is also unclear why nurses are so for front in the war) have their clothes as new as possible. Conversations are dull, acting is way below avarage. Finishing this movie is a real pain, and it is almost impossible not to be distracted in any way as it gets boring more and more. I would recommend to save your time and watch anything else, instead of this.

This movie has been released just couple of days ago and it's a awful movie,The movie tries to tell viewers "Ataturk has done nothing in the Gallipoli war",and they mentioned his name in the movie only once and then nothing,what a shame...he is Our leader and Founder of Turks,This awful movie tries to do effect on us to forget about him but we never will,Do not you never ever forget about that... If i were you i would go watch another nice movie but not this garbage because it s totally totally not worth to watch,Really awful. Don't waste your time. if even they give you money to watch it you will regret and you will never take back that hours from your life. You will suffer and suffer. There is no subject on that movie

son mektup is a poorly directed movie. the script feels like it's written sloppy. the acting is another weakness of the movie. religious words and shouting is not enough giving the feeling of a battle which is won under very difficult circumstances.

i hardly endured till the end of it. i don't think i will ever remember son mektup a couple of weeks later.

plus, the movie is allegedly funded by an initiative that has the purpose of distorting the actual battle of gallipoli according to their political perspective. i think historical movies should be fair to their own realities.

not recommended.

Another sympathizer film of the government in Turkiye. The film was produced in order to earn money on national and historical emotionality of Turks and to be sympathetic to the present government. But there was an injustice in the film because the founder and the leader of Turkiye Mustafa Kemal Ataturk and the hero of the battle Seyit Onbaşı had never been mentioned. Because some evil-minded people in Turkiye try to cause the new generation to forget Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.(Nobody managed to do this and never will be able to do.) Also pupils were taken to this film by force. If they weren't taken by force the producers couldn't have earned any money.
