Tácticas en el Amor

Demet Ozdemir and Sukru Ozyildiz are back with the rest of the cast from Love Tactics (Ask Taktikleri) in this Turkish summer romantic comedy. Their characters Asli and Kerem fell in love in the first film and are back to help their mutual friends Tuna and Ezgi get married...with all the folderol that surrounds a wedding. This leads to Asli saying she does not want to get married and Kerem saying he doesn't want to marry Asli...now Asli wants to trick Kerem into wanting to marry her and Kerem wanting to convince Asli that marriage is horrible...let the games begin or love tactics as they call it.

Beautiful Turkish backdrop...especially an island bachelorette party retreat that the boys crash when the handsome Bukut comes on to the scene. We also get to meet Emir's mysterious wife Feride, who is not only gorgeous but a friend of both Asli's and Bukut's. I was thrilled with the addition of both Ceyhun Mengiroglu and Melisa Dongel, who are exceptional actors that I have enjoyed in other Turkish series.

I am a big fan of both Demet and Sukru (sorry IMDB will not let me use the appropriate characters for my review) and I enjoy watching Turkish series in general, it gives me an opportunity to practice my Turkish language skills. This is a lightweight but very colorful romantic comedy and I think romantics will enjoy it. It was lighter on plot than the first film, but more than made up for it in sets, backdrops, additions to the cast, and costuming. I was happy to see the final scenes and I think most romantics will be pleased as well.

This review is based on watching the film in it's original Turkish language with English subtitles.

Demet is brilliant in every role she takes whether drama or comedy, but please do not make Love Tactics 3 because it will super duper upper boring like Love Tactics 2 (not interesting) and its predecessor Love Tactics 1 (tedious). What silly stories to tell in Love Tactics 2 and 1. Sure it is summer and fun to watch these kind of movies, but they are purely a waste of time making them. I understand it's a Netflix algorithm, but still! The movies' ideas are taken from American and Spanish movies -- repeat, copy, and paste. There is nothing hilarious about the first and the second, they are regular "okay" comedy which you rarely laugh.

Love Tactics 2 is a sweet, good-natured romantic comedy that succeeds on every level it is trying to be. The story is well-written and more original then it may come off from the trailers.

This movie is almost entirely character driven and it is great. It's very funny, positive and enjoyable.. However, Demet Özdemir and Sükrü Özyildizs' outstanding performances propel this movie to greatness.

I think I've watched this movie about 5 times. I adore it, adore the idea, adore the script and simply love the way it has been produced. I'll probably watch it again wayyyyy too soon.

While the ending is predictable, it's sweet and makes you smile. Wonderful film!!

P. S. : Demet Özdemir is the queen of Romantic Comedies.

I was also very impressed by the beauty and sensuality of Demet's dance scenes!!!

Conclusion: If you're in the mood for a good laugh and pleasant movie-going experience, this is a great movie to watch.

We live the summer with this film, fun, relaxing, not boring at all. I really appreciate the charisma, versatility and talent of Demet, rightfully considered the queen of Turkish comedy - I was impressed by the beauty and sensuality of Demet's dance scenes, I want to see her in a new project on Netflix, dancing. Seeing the beauty of the landscapes in the film, the film seems to invite you to visit Turkey. Whoever watches this film will not regret it, it disconnects you from everyday life. Thank you Demet, Sucru, the whole team, you reminded us to laugh! PS: Haters have appeared, they should not be ignored.

What a horrible show! Didn't think it could get worse than the first but it was an epic waste of time! So stupid and superficial with an overacting female lead who is a joke! The male lead was so handsome but wasted his talents on this show!

Very predictable concept with the life of the lavish rich and famous and just plain disgusting.

Netflix really stooped to an all time low with this one. This production was not the bottom of the barrel, it was under the barrel. The supporting cast was just as bad as the lead protagonists so there are no merits to watching this show.

If you think it will get better and continue watching until the end you will be terribly disappointed.

Netflix you just dialed a big zero with this show and wasted your money, and mine, on this mindless production.
