Interesteg What makes it different from others?
NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
ilkerbozkurt I have seen the movie this year. I've been watching the director as an actor for years. The story is very realistic and the cast seems to fit so appropriate. After a while except dramatic editions, the movie transforms to a documentary film and begins to annoy much more. The two parallel sub-stories holds many characters like the cheating friend of Ridvan, the survivor of 1999 earthquake, neglectful father of Cevher, the unwanted gay brother and also the ghostly Kurdish ex-girlfriend of Ridvan. Especially the finals of the two stories makes an ironic expression on the movie title heads or tails"Yazi& Tura".. Each side of the coin is the same.
mrgpwillis Yazi Tura is an amazing insight into Turkish ordeal. The story is wonderfully managed from start to finish and leaves the viewer with a cold realisation of how life can deal us the cruelest of hands. Ugur Yücel has caught the essence of military life and how it brings together young men to form close and personal relationships for short periods of time. The end of the relationship becomes the start of a new time, the main part of the story. It follows two such young men and how they have to adapt to civilian life. Many topics are brought to the front in the film. Depression and alcoholism leads to suicide. Homosexuality and even natural disaster play a major part. I recommend this movie as a 'must watch'
jemov This movie is far away from what we were used to in Turkish cinema. In fact, this picture has no hope whatsoever inside, and that kind of depresses you, besides a huge slap of reality. I think the movie is not made for criticizing anyone or anything, it is made to show how real, ordinary people are situated in our daily life. Contains black humor sometimes, it is dark and so real that it creeps you out. The acting is not even close to bad, actors have really got into their roles. And the directing is, a little new but better than I have expected. This movie is in the 1st rank in my favorite Turkish movies, and i think most of the people who watched it would agree with me
styavuz Ugur Yucel,the giant movie star of Turkish cinema, is very successful in his directorial debut.In his movie,he has very impressively described the different and dramatical stories of two men who had been wounded in the war lasting for nearly 20 years at Southeast region of Turkey.This movie must be accepted as the first movie based on this terrible conflict.This war has affected every individual living in Turkey and everybody have something to say on this war.So in my opinion, Yucel has filled the biggest gap in Turkish cinema with this brilliant movie.Olgun Simsek is acting wonderfully and showing his linguistic ability especially when he is talking in Middle Anatolian accent. I wish many more people to watch this movie and the movie gets all the credits that it deserves..
