As a Turkish viewer who enjoyed most of Mahsun's movies, I must admit that this one fell short of my expectations. Basically intended to be a satirical comedy, this movie is actually lacking both character development and relevancy to the genre.
As Turkish audience, we have seen good examples of satirical comedy reflecting the Ottoman Period such as Sener Sen's Degirmen. But unfortunately the quality there is incomparable to this one. Besides I have seen some reviews here claiming that those who rate this movie low are doing it because Mahsun is opposed to the government and values in Turkey. I am sorry to see such comments because they show how polarized a society we are. For me, I consider myself to be one of those who call an ass an ass and don't care anyone's opposition to anything.
