Le violon de mon père

It's a type of movie you can watch with ur family, have bit of laugh, get bit of emotional. I loved the kid and her energy for this movie. Don't expect it to be really serious or find flaws here and there. Some stuff doesn't make sense but still it's a movie and not real life.

Move along.cynics. This movie isn't for you. During these bleak times, I'd rather watch movies full of hope and redemption, while not ignoring our darker, selfish natures. Believe it or not, even the worst of us have the capacity to change, and become more loving and caring people.

Several times throughout this movie, I predicted what would happen next, and yet I still had joyful chills when my predictions came true. In spite of its predictability, it accomplishes telling a story of selfishness conquering selfishness, without a single bit of cheesiness.

I went to bed happy, rather than filled with dread. What's so wrong with that?

The first part of the movie was a bit boring. It didn't have to be so long. The first part leaves a big plot, but when we figure out what it was, it was completely forgotten in seconds, like it didn't even matter. Also we can't really see the development of the characters' relationship, it just happens. There were some parts when I actually said "whaaaaat?" The ending was totally cliche. Some of the acting was pretty good. The girl wasn't amazing, but I think it was a difficult character for someone that age to play.

Now... the music! That made it all worth it.

So if you love music ou the violin, I think you'll like it. Not love, like.

I'm a little biased when it comes to the beautiful Belcim Bilgin, I will watch anything she is in and the little girl did a great job!. The storyline was fairly predictable and you knew where it was going. I watch movies to be entertained, not criticise and I'd have been disappointed had it not ended the way it did.

I love Turkish movies, they seem to be devoid of of the special effects the Hollywood movies depend on these days and they have a knack of holding your interest throughout.

This was a beautiful movie, quite honestly. I was in tears several times, laughing and just so engrossed in this uncle and niece relationship coming together. Yes it has its cliche moments, but the perspective of how a child really can change your life in many different ways was beautifully portrayed and I couldn't pull away from the movie regardless of how predictable it was. Just wonderful acting and beautiful music!
