Karakomik Filmler: 2 Arada

Yes, these two are not typical Cem Yilmaz movies, so those expecting something like Arif v 216 or Yahsi Bati may well be disappointed -BUT, the teasers and pretty much everything Cem Yilmaz said about these films in advance had already told us that he was doing something new, something different than his earlier works and masterpieces. The first movie of the Kara Komik Filmler series, 2 Arada, is a unique film and the character, "Ayzek" shines like a star. I don't want to share even the slightest spoiler here, so I'll just say: we love you, Ayzek! I think those who see cinema as mostly commercial/simple fun may find 2 Arada rather dull, but those who respect and appreciate the 7th art will like it. As for the second movie, Kacamak, well, it does make you laugh with a cast we all love, but it's not as powerful and unique as 2 Arada. However, the production, visuals and overall quality is praiseworthy, as is the case with any other Cem Yilmaz movie to date. All in all, I liked the 'single ticket for two films' concept, and liked 2 Arada more than Kacamak, and I'll definitely be seeing the 3rd and 4th movies of the Kara Komik Filmler series in January 2020. Hats of to Cem Yilmaz for his courage in unique works and significantly higher quality films in Turkish cinema -he really is good at competing with himself

P.S: I think one of the problems with Kacamak was the inadequate English language skills of the actress portraying Carolyn (Nilperi Sahinkaya) versus the native speaker actors and Alisan Ugur (Rich).

Very good shots, character development, story telling and set design. By far the best movie of Cem Yilmaz as various aspects are concerned. Good depiction of the Faustian bargains we make each day as we try to meander the tough rules of the work life.

This is simply great. It actually feels very real even though it's very absurd. Cem Yilmaz wrote a great script about very ordinary man's life and yet he made it interesting. I love the whole 60 mins of 2 movies concept. And those moveis are really Comidark.

Very warm, also physcologic film. Focusing on the small lives of ordinary people. Black comedy is exactly this film . Liked it very much,thanks to Cem Yilmaz and the whole crew.

Why people expected this one has to be comedy or has to be funny is plain stupid. I guess people just love hating those days. Indeed it was a very experimental movie and I wished it was the only one so it could have been polished more but still build up to the ending was so great and rewarding. Just keep your walk Cem brother we hear you, we get you.
