2 Genç Kiz

This movie is about the different thoughts on life and incidents of two girls that are about to enter womanhood. Behiye is a character that does not accept the roles of ordinary woman and as a result she is rebellious. Handan is a girl that is having the trauma of a dissolved family and he needs and searches for love. Also, she does not have friend. The movie is about their passionate and unbalanced friendship. In my opinion, acting is a little bit hyperbolic and this fact made me harder to believe the story. Finally, it is good movie in illuminating us about women's point of viewbut the cinematography and the acting was bad

This film proves that a very good film can be made out of a mediocre novel. I went to the cinema forced by my girlfriend and came out of it thoroughly impressed and touched. The film divided the male and female audiences in Turkey, and I am happy to say I am not one of the Turkish males who felt "slapped" by this movie. Having said this, if your idea of life is soccer and drinking booze, this is not a film for you. For the other lesser beings such as myself, I would like to add that this is one of those rare films we see in the world today that will change one's life. It is also a revolutionary film for the Turkish cinema, finally an intelligent and sensitive departure from the stupid slap sticks of the recent years toward bone dry reality about everyday Turkish life. I strongly recommend it.

This Book-based movie is truly awful, and a big disappointment. We've been waiting for this move over a month. Many film reviewer were hopeful for it. Also in newspapers and TV, it made big sense. When 29th April comes, many people regretfully noticed that movie is really awful. Why? First of all story was so monotone. It has been many indefinite scenes, sometimes it's hard to realize what's going on. The actresses, out of Hulya Avsar, weren't harmonized with their roles, especially Vildan Atasever. She acts better in comedy films, In this movie, a kind of drama, she couldn't disposed of her previous role. And finally Movie is too short, just 66 minutes.

in turkey, a couple of directors are auteur directors and kutlug ataman, who directed famous movie "lola and bilidikid", is one of them. when two little girls is watched first, of course, it seems a familiar story about little girls which discover what the complex and modern life is. because this story comes from a book, named "iki genc kizin romani" and written by perihan magden who is a ordinary writer, but ataman overcomes to differentiate a familiar story. ataman, as a smart director, uses a number of soundtracks in this movie that have famous Turkish alternative rock bands like replikas, zen (babazula) and all of musics makes this movie funny. i think if you want to watch a modern Turkish movie, you can choose this movie.

This film was just shown in the London film festival and I must say what an excellent piece of cinematographic art it is. It is not just a nice story but it brilliantly portrays the female role as perceived in the supposedly modern Turkish society. Although the finale is nothing like something out of a fairy tale with a perfect ending, it definitely makes a mark and proves its point: the emancipation of women and how stereotypes, stigmas and even physical and psychological pressure and abuse cannot repress inner strength and joie de vivre as one could say.

I thought the movie was brilliantly interpreted and the comic references were certainly well put forward by both the director and the actresses. Well done.
