Kod Adi: Venüs

A film worth watching. I just watched it and and I am still thinking about it. The only thing wrong with it is that it finishes so soon.It flows so quickly.It needs another 20 minutes on top of the 90 minutes.I think the lead actress(Venus)Jolie Myatt and Cengiz Bozkurt (Adamos) is amazing.The story and cinematography is excellent.I hope there is a sequel.And Cyprus's story is so tragic that I felt sorry for the Country.The fact that its based on a true story it makes it even more interesting.My girlfriend cried at the end but I did not.I came out feeling what a tragedy.I have enjoyed it very much.I don't understand some of the reviews here.I am not sure if we are reviewing the same film.

I have watched the film quite recently, thanks to a friend of mine, and found it fantastic! Worth to watch...

Nice pictures from the beautiful island.

The film is taking place in Cyprus, from the mid 50s till 74. The story of a young and beautiful woman, who finds herself in the middle of a tensed situation in Cyprus. Turkish Cypriots and Greek Cypriots are fighting with each other, British are using some strategies to not to loose the control of island and people are finding their own ways under circumstances...

A nice combination of love and history. The love story of a man and a woman and the one in the middle..

Eager but highly disappointed Eyes were glued to the screen as I awaiting the beginning of this highly anticipated film about the conflict in Cyprus spanning three decades, intermingled with a story about of love and treachery. From the word go the film didn't know what it was meant to be and I as well as the two friends found it extremely difficult to identify with any of the key roles. The plot jumped from character to character and left us thinking "where did that came from". Direction was abysmal , Acting was poor with accents sounding so wrong and actors were not believable, one of the aspects that stood out was that the film was trying to be too big for its budget, you could quite clearly see where the budget had been cut, three cars for the whole one which had been blown up then used again in another scene, camera angles when shots had to take on a lot restricted so that key could make it look larger than it really is. Couple of good points I felt that the DOP was good, lighting seemed to be really nice, and costume believable… I left after watching the film disappointed not sure if that is my fault as I had such high expectations of this film

It's a nice movie that deals with love, conspiracy, and action. The story is constructed in a nice way however, it would have been much better if they wouldn't left out the story of the gospel of Saint Barnabas. The triangle and tension between Jasmine, Adamos, and Kemal were shown in a good way. Historically speaking, the movie gives some information about how the situation was in Cyprus back then. At the same time, one of the things that I liked most with the movie is that although people were experiencing war, still there was a humane aspect of it. In other words, both Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot women are the ones who suffered because of the war and men are the ones who are fighting. Overall, I recommend the movie to everyone because the movie is not limited to Cypriots but anyone who is interested about action and love movies.

the way movie start was actually pretty good. but if they were wouldn't leave the Barnabas bible it would be much better. while you are watching you feel the affect of the movie, you go to 1970's. as a bad comment i can only say i want more why did you finish??? because at the end of the movie you feel like you can watch this movie for 2 more hours. it was a good movie and i think everyone who lives on island should watch this movie. they can take lessons as how they want it. congrats Tamer i hope you make another movie. and about the stars, they acted like an Hollywood stars. with little budget they make a hell of a movie. i personally met with Jolie m. and she is one of the most natural women i ever met.
