InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

hepsiozgurce One of the terribly bad Turkish movies! Emotional abuse nothing more!
cihankoru First, let me list what I liked about this film. The setting is beautiful. Stark natural beauty of mountainous Eastern Turkey is breathtaking. Cinematography is also top notch. Local costumes, especially of the women are colorful, authentic and gorgeous. The subject matter, a city-bred grade school teacher is assigned to a remote mountain village where he assumes the self assigned task of rehabilitating a local spastic young man, has the potential of being developed into a powerful story. However, that is where my disappointment starts. The film blows the chance of being a masterpiece. The story development is choppy and full of unlikely events. At several points, I found myself asking 'but, why?' or 'how come?' and finding no explanation. The 'miracle' that is revealed at the end of the movie is probably the one plot element that is least believable. When the villagers wonder how the 'miracle' came about, the main character's explanation, 'I fell in love with my wife', just does not cut it. I admire the young Turkish director, Mahsun Kirmizigul, due to his productivity and improvement in his directing skills he has mustered over the years. Never the less, I believe he still has quite a distance to cover in order to perfect his artistry in story telling.
Nezih Oktar Based on a true story was crafted a great film. The power of love in the name of humanity, nature, love of country and unique images accompanied by children. Talented players and a friendly and natural rendering of the theme with them. Disabled man's role is admirable. Artistic nature images from the corner of Eastern Anatolia watchable and catchy. If you are craving of 1960s in the frames of the movie will take you to that date, unless this particular corner of the world. I have to admit, director of this film is also a famous singer and musician but I'm not a big fan of him, but this movie is great. The makers and players need to celebrate.
