Sen Hiç Ates Böcegi Gördün Mü?

The movie is based on the original text of a muchly appreciated theatre play staged in 1999, written by Yilmaz Erdogan, a succesfull name of cinema and theatre world in Turkey.

Despite basing on a text succeded in the past, the movie unfortunately fails articulating a cinematic langue by adapting the theatrical scenario. Hence, the audience faces to a theatre play on the screen trying but failing to be a movie.

Only turkish peoplle can understand this story. So don't care about score. Only watch and enjoy Ecem Erkek excellent play..Maybe a little cry.

Have You Seen Fireflies? Yes, they are beautiful and threatened with extinction, as cute and charming as the film, but beware, strong triggers, loneliness, resilience, exaggerated machismo of a strongly patriarchal society, it hurts deep inside the soul, a beautiful and intensely sad film... The context history and evolution from 1960 to the present day and every revolution, excellent film cloth ... "Life is more difficult for those who are intelligent."

I watched the movie with zero expectations, and I was happy. Despite terrible CGI and make-up, it was a great movie. It entertained and made me sad at the same time. The first thirty minutes of the film seem very useless to plot, and nothing really goes on. It had a comedy vibe, but nothing was funny. Except for Ecem Erkek, she was funny. I really liked her performance.

The movie opens like a flower while you watch it and becomes much more meaningful. However, character development is weak. Much thing goes on around Gülseren, and only in the last scenes, we see a change in her character. I think the film could have been much better, but it is still a good movie to watch.

A well-known story for Turkish theater lovers. The scenario was processed successfully. Congratulations to the whole team. A performance that deserves an award from Ecem Erkek.
