Yilbasi Gecesi

We had to watch this film, which was a great disappointment, with astonishment.

I unfortunately classify Gülse Birsel's film, which we were waiting for with great expectations, as the worst film I have seen this year.

I'm amazed that so many good actors accepted to such a scenario. It was far below expectations.

A pointless scenario with irrelevant themes chasing each other. For us, it was a complete waste of time.

There was not a single scene where we laughed. It's very sad, and I hope we never watch such a disappointing scenario again. Humor was a long way from this movie................

Gulse Birsel, one of the notable names of contemporary Turkish comedy made a new year's eve movie definitely worth watching. The movie is very good since it presents Gulse Birsel's humor but in a more critical sense. The movie brings stark criticisms towards contemporary Turkish society and the aura of Turkish politics through the characters that come together incidentally in a new year's eve night celebration during a Covid-19 lockdown. Those well-played characters are people who we know from our lives. In today's Turkey, Gulse Birsel made a blunt, political yet a naive comedy which we missed. The crew, the characters they play and the acting is also very good, except the lack of chemistry between Fatih Aritman and Sebnem Bozoklu.

Ms Birsel used to make modern comedies, making you really laugh for more than 15 years. Characters, scripts, set-up are mismatched in this movie. Script is based on a rich family's New Year Eve gathering with their neighbors, which that don't know much at all. She is also an actress in this movie, like all of her movies. Her performance is not linked to the character. Cengiz Bozkurt and Boran Kuzum were very good. Her last movie (Aile Arasinda) was on 2017 and her performance both as the script writer and actress were far better. Director of the both movies are the same. All the other actress/actors seems to do well; still the movie cannot entertain you, script failure. Was not funny at all.

Gulse Birsel should either stop writing screenplays or re-learn. Although this movie is a comedy movie, it is not funny in the least. Cliché comedy elements are used. There is no creativity. It's a shame for the money Disney+ paid for this movie. Watching the whole movie is a complete waste of time.

Gulse Birsel constantly writes scripts with strange characters based on rich families. This movie is an example of Birsel's previous work, but one of her worst. While watching this movie, you will never smile, let alone laugh, because the movie is so bad.

If you want to watch a movie and have fun in the new year, do not choose this movie.

This Gulse Birsen movie is one of the best movies ever. There was "Aile Arasinda" movie Which was also written by Gulse Birsen. That movie was also very good.

I dont want to tell details about the movie but i love all characters. It is very very comic, funny, sometimes sarcastic, sometimes ironic. I watched it 4 times already and each time i saw other details. There are so many funny details in the movie. I highly advice people to watch it. Since it is in turkish, i am not sure How it will be in English but it definetely worths to watch it even in English as well.

Congradulations to all actors and actresses and Gulse Birsen.
