I really enjoyed the acting and story telling. I believe it could be made longer because at some points I felt the timeline was really compressed and jumped over events very quickly. But providing that the movie is going through so many people and events it is not fair to judge it on this ground. Since it is not fictitious but depends on real events and people, It would have been better if there were descriptions of characters with some under titles when they were introduced especially for non Turkish viewers. But thanks to the cast and the director, great movie overall and highly recommended.
Within the pantheon of cinematic portrayals of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, this latest offering stands out as a distinguished masterpiece. Straying from the trodden path of previous biopics, the film captures the essence of Atatürk with a refreshing authenticity that both educates and inspires. The narrative, rich in historical gravitas, is interwoven with a delicate craftsmanship that brings not only the man but also the mythos surrounding him to vibrant life.
The filmmakers' dedication to presenting Atatürk's multifaceted persona visionary statesman, military genius, and progressive reformer-is evident in every frame. Their meticulous attention to period detail and commitment to nuanced storytelling transcends conventional biographical cinema, making the experience not just a viewing but an immersive journey through a pivotal era in Turkish history.
What truly elevates this film above its predecessors is the unflinching portrayal of Atatürk's humanity. Rather than being perched on a pedestal, he is seen here in his full complexity, his triumphs as well as his struggles laid bare in a manner that is both intimate and grandiose.
In conclusion, this film does not simply retell Atatürk's life story; it reignites it, offering a tableau that is as enlightening as it is enchanting. It is a definitive film that should not be missed, serving as a brilliant homage to one of history's great figures and a sterling example of cinematic excellence.

There is no exaggration and unnecessary sentimental touch. It is just what exactly it must be. Some dark scenes are hard to see on the cinema but it also deserves to be a TV series with more detaild look. If it was a bad version about Ataturk, i would criticize harshly but nothing to say bad in general. The actor is perfect to speak different languages lika a native. It was impressive. Visual effects are good according to the budget and support behind the movie. It must be on the platforms but it was got out because of some political reasons. It must be shown on national TV as well. It is educative.
I found the Atatürk film to be quite innovative in many ways. Particularly impressive was its portrayal of the pivotal events that shaped Mustafa Kemal's character and the incidents that formed the personality that we know. It was enlightening to see the people and events that influenced him, and how his character evolved.
However, I had to deduct a point because while the scenes, costumes, and dialogues accurately reflected the period, some felt overly theatrical. Certain scenes were so meticulously staged and visually appealing that they distanced me from the reality of the events.
Furthermore, while we should be able to see both the strengths and weaknesses of Atatürk as a human being, the film consistently set him apart from other characters, almost deifying him. This, in my opinion, compromised the film's connection to reality, which is essential for a biographical piece.
Despite these criticisms, I would generally give the film a 10 out of 10, so perhaps giving it a 9 is a bit unfair.

There has been many Ataturk movies. Some were good, some were junk that was telling how many crows Mustafa Kemal Ataturk threw rocks.
This looks like the most thought movie.
Color grading, lighting, atmosphere, everything is spot on, like a Hollywood movie.
I always wanted to see a movie about Ataturk, that told the stories of the hard times he had that corrupted Ottoman gave him.
Backstage of this movie shows that there has been a real effort, lots of thinking, everyone involved worked very hard. So kudos to all. Ataturk deserves these detail. Greatest leader all of time needed a great movie like that. Well done.
