Netflix presents us with many international movies, some good and some bad. In the case of Boga Boga, it's a very divisive film. Some people will love the movie because it's so different, but others will hate it for that very reason. However, I neither hated nor loved it, I found it to be an average film that has some highs and lows. He's pretty slow and that's something that will put some people off. At certain times the fact that it is slow helps a lot in the immersion and development of the film, on the other hand, at other times it becomes tiring. When a more frantic scene occurs, the director manages to do it in a well-executed way. The story is very interesting and thought-provoking, but the plot twist is pretty dull and its revelation leaves something to be desired. It's a movie I loved watching and most likely I'll watch it again in a while.

Kivanc was absolutely amazing, amazing, amazing in this movie! As we all know, he is a very talented actor in Türkiye, and this film was just another proof of his remarkable skills. Kivanc has an undeniable charm and charisma that captivates audiences, pulling them into the world of the characters he portrays. His ability to deliver powerful, emotional performances has earned him a special place in the hearts of fans all over the world.

In this movie, Kivanc showcased his versatility as an actor, as he seamlessly transitioned between a wide range of emotions, from intense drama to light-hearted humor. His on-screen presence was magnetic, drawing viewers in and holding their attention throughout the entire film. With each role he takes on, Kivanc continues to expand his range and demonstrate his commitment to his craft.

The chemistry between Kivanc and his co-stars was palpable, creating a dynamic and engaging ensemble that kept the audience entertained and invested in the story. The film's director and crew did a fantastic job of bringing the story to life, with beautifully crafted scenes and a perfect balance of tension and emotion.

First of all the movie is very slow and most of the scenes consist of Yalin (Kivanc) being paranoid. He basically forked a lot of people over by stealing their money and he actually got away with it. So naturally Turkish people, being extra spitefull and triggered, have to have their revenge.

The funny thing is that even the police tells Yalin that the whole village will be hunting him down and that they will not help him. And that is basically the summary of the movie: angry village people trying to kill Yalin amd how he deals with it.

The suspence scenes are good. Eventhough there are a lot of unecesseray scenes Kivanc and Funda's acting remains well-round. The ending has a plottwist that tries to invite the viewers to a discussion about the power of money in Turkey.

It is one of those movies that will be loved or not loved at all. Although the beginning and the course do not seem to give the expected, it is a movie full of social message content that gets better from the middle to the end. Onur Saylak, who has beautifully scripted the hypocrisy of our society was great again. Could have been a 10/10 movie if he could get out of the series format a little more. Colors, camera angles and images are very very successful. He summed up in an instructive way that money is above ethical values. Kivanc Tatlitug and Funda Eryigit remind us many times that they are among the best actors in this country. Watchable 👍🏾

Definitely a noirish film, not one I could appreciate. I am curious about the writer and what other movies he has written. The main charactor was not the aggresser in his bad deeds, he was just defending himself; except in the end. That was a shock! Interesting how the writer wanted us to know that money talks and can forgive bad deeds. Watching films of locations where I have traveled is always rewarding. The actor is talented and very good looking although they protrayed him as bedraggled and certainly not walking a runway. As I am writing this, I have gone from a 2 star rating to a 7. Just because it was not my cup of tea, I should be fair and reasonable.
