Totally underrated comedy that will make you think again

I really doubt if you can ever find English subtitles but if you do this movie is a must watch.

the story of a poor man who owns the land by the sea and a rich man who wants own it.

It is like Ayn Rand's atlas shredded or Pink floyds The wall...

The meaning of our life etc...

If you go deep you may not find acting worthy or outstanding but natural at most.

Funny and makes you think a lot and deep...

Thumbs up!

It is a comedy about Matrix.

It is the first minimalist movie in Turkish Cinema. Script is written by Birol Guven but, I can smell of Mufit's touch. This movie is about you and questioning your life. It is a must watch movie including the following one.

An awful movie

This movie is about capitalism and how it destroys the human nature. It is a bad attempt to show it and is much of a cliché. All the jokes are primary-school level, no intellectual worth whatsoever, and the idea is so easy that even a 5 year old could observe it. Jokes are sometimes obscene and they are supposed to amuse you. The protagonist's speech is barely understandable. There is also a lady who does not speak properly, might as well add subtitles at those sections. Plus, this man was introduced in another Turkish TV series before, but he did not get much attention. All he says throughout the movie is "I am against something something." Really not worth your time.

Just another propaganda movie for encouraging people to spend more

This movie is full of great quotes even though they do not refer to the correct sources. It is supported by the government(Ak party) to encourage some religious and spiritual values. If you really work in the farm than you know how hard the life sometimes would be. There is definitely a political agenda of making this movie. "spend your money do not save"! Good for the economy as you pay taxes.

I definitely advise you to watch it but the farm life is not as full of enjoyment as they show in the movie. There are a lot of counter arguments coming in to mind if you have general knowledge of philosophical approaches.

This film is the antidepressant.

I am Turkish businessman. When I watched this film I was in one of my chicken production business in North of Ethiopia before. As a businessman I don't like a capitalism. The film have nice comedy, showing nice village life. But I focused the life of mandra filozofu. Interesting that when I am in Turkey, I had a garden similar, I live there without using money. It's effective for me more than every depressant medicines. If I feel depress and watching this. I watched it more than 80 times in whole 90 days summer. :)
