great series but the music is just as terrible.. irrelevant times, irrelevant music. there is a high speed car chase on the screen and the piece of music they have selected is "song 2" by blur, which is more of a positive song, but the car chase is not that positive, and moreover bad guys succeed to get away.

i haven't been able to check who has been dealing with all these music, but if i'm not mistaken, jj abrams has made the title music and this may indicate us that he has been dealing with the other pieces of music too..

and "song 2" isn't the only example. there are many many examples, almost on every episode. if this had been something worst, i mean alias, i could accept that but it's a huge success and you have to find suitable and relevant music wherever necessary. you can't just put a piece of music jut because it's slow or fast.

i began watching the series a couple of months ago, i mean at the beginning of the 2006 summer. first i thought: "the times are changing and in this 5 years, both my taste of music and the choices for the series have changed" but after thinking further, i saw that it didn't have to do with the time. the songs don't change in means of their mood, they may get old, but they will still have the same mood and certain things will go on being the same, i mean, love is sweet, car chase is thrilling, a new baby is lovely, death is painful, fights are breathtaking, war is cold.

and i remember "lost", it didn't have this kind of irrelevant music.. i guess jj abrams had its lesson with "alias" and made a better work with "lost".

to be honest, this is one of those movies you just come across on TV and watch it just to kill some time.

at least, it was that way for me during the first couple of minutes but then i realized it was more about the man behind the cars.

enzo ferrari is one of the most powerful figures for racing and one doesn't become as powerful for no reason and this movie is all about him.

people who want to see lots of cars and technical stuff shouldn't watch this movie but there is the struggle of a man trying to create a company that will eventually become a legend.

no movie will ever reach where eskiya stands for turkey. perhaps it's the only movie to be the best movie ever of its native country without a single discussion.

i'm not exaggerating, i'm not overrating. it really is a great movie that touches your heart. sener sen, being the best actor of turkey, can make you cry and he gets a huge help from the great composer erkan ogur. for the closing scene, erkan ogur is playing his own invention: fretless guitar. best film music ever in turkey? must be so.

i won't say things like "if this movie had been taken in Hollywood, it would have been great. if only they had more budget and more famous Hollywood stars had been acting..." because this movie is great as it is! take one frame out and there goes the magic out! it's a complete movie with absolutely no mistakes or something missing.

my only wish would be to have really really English subtitles to make this movie enjoyable for many many others. it's probably one of the most difficult movie translations of all times but there are really really few words to express those said at the end of the movie.

or everybody should learn Turkish and try to understand the part on their own.
