Arabesk

One of the best absurd comedy films I have ever seen. This film brings some best performers of Turkish cinema together.

This film makes fun of the arabesque culture and familiar cliché events in old Turkish films. Sener Sen, Mujde Ar, and Ugur Yucel are magnificent in terms of acting in this film. If you are familiar with old Turkish movies, you can guess most part of the plot. However, it does not prevent you from having fun while watching this movie, on the contrary, it makes you enjoy it even more. Every cliché event is watched without getting bored since they happen very quickly and the film moves on to other events quickly. Also, the movie is musically successful. My favorite music part is Olsun Hala Umidim Var by Sener Sen.

In the final film before his death, Ertem Egilmez makes a perfect ending to his glorious career with this world class movie. The movie is an absurd comedy classic, nearly in the style of "Airplane!" and ZAZ movies, makes great fun of "Arabesk" culture. Sener Sen plays the lead role alongside of Mujde Ar who try to meet but cannot because of several funny tragedies. There are lots of humorous tragedies in the film just like in the old Turkish movies. Ugur Yucel's "Marlon Brando" impersonation is worth seeing, too. I recommend tihs film to everyone wtith some knowledge about old Turkish cinema and good sense of humor.

Makes fun of love stories. Ironically its a very good love story itself. Great comedy, great cast and great story line... Really shines! This is the only one that i really like watching over and over in Turkish cinema. I rated it 10 easily.

Before this movie my life is meaningless. I watched this movie 20000000 times. Thank you Sener Sen Thank you Müjde Ar.
