if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Having looked at some of the comments and reviews here, I am a little surprised that so many have taken what is pretty much a slightly above average action drama so seriously. Its acted adequately, well shot, points out the ignorance and hypocrisy rife in America without overdoing it. It reminds me of many American movies where Yank cops would go over to another country, or city etc and show the locals how it was done. Definitely got a 90s feel to it this one, no CG, ridiculous American toilet humour of recent years, and an enjoyable change in perspective. Those with complaints about realism and believability are really overdoing it, this is really a Turkish version of an American genre movie

Good movie..with few controversial situation about religions mix and relations. Is inspiring because depict a Muslims with a new thoughts about others religions, but little naive about those situations. Sure the use of some situation related to the war on terror help to add context. But in the end the argument split in too many roads, that nobody is let out of criticism, Turkey with its record of torture , Muslim extremist warring a jihad, the FBI completely dumb. But what is more incredible is the Danny Glover role...fit to his personality and political position in real life. and isn't causality that the modern Black Panthers were the only ones who did the things right..even fighting the legal system with violence and getting out unpunished. Good movie.

This movie spared all effort to put into perspective the authority pursuit of terrorists across the Atlantic. It successfully depicts that despite the claim that war against terrorism is not war against Islam, when vengeance underscore motivation, vindication transcends borders of respects. For a movie, it was well directed, well acted, and the presentation quite successfully moved the audience to experience the multitude of human emotions that filled and colored the characters portrayed in the movie. All in all, this movie is a gem that will give the audience an alternative scenario and perspective in the fight against terrorism, especially given the the theater is filled to the brim with the Hollywood version of anti-terrorism, that are often distorted and certainly one-sided.This movie attempted to put into light the true Islam, albeit there are fundamental differences to what some may argue as to the 'truer' teachings of Islam would otherwise preach, as opposed to the more secular and somewhat liberated Islam as Turkey is practicing. While the attempt is commendable, the less informed audience may presume this is true of Islam. Case in point, Turkey is about the only country that accepts Muslims marrying Christian. But the well spoken message that a terrorist is automatically a non-Muslim, deserves an applaud.Needless, this movie is not about teaching. And for the entertainment value, this movie is an outright winner.

I am at awe to see couple of bad reviews on here. The only thing I can think of it is that the bad reviews come from the followers of the biggest cancer in Turkey who is Fettullah or maybe some other ethnic rebellious thinkers. Bottom line is that this movie gives a great depiction of everything. The power of using Islam for good, and that people in the end are victims of being uneducated. Movie was fantastic in every way. The actors, the filming - everything. It is a must see. Haluk Bilginer gave an amazing performance. Mahsun Kirmizigul despite me having previous negative thoughts against him and quite frankly not thinking too highly of him was a pleasant surprise. Mustafa Sandal despite being a terrible singer turned out to be a decent actor. Danny Glover and Gina of course were at 5 star performances again.
