New Year's Eve

Im glad to see Im not the only one whos disappointed After Aile Arasnda I was hoping Glse Birsel would make me go to the cinema for a Turkish comedy film However it was difficult complete to this movie without getting bored even at home I didnt like to leave it unfinished so I finished the movie but the other family members fell asleep The movie gives off a forced feeling both with its jokesthe feeling that something is going to happen at any moment in the sequences it doesntand with its acting performances in general Except for a few small scenes you cannot empathize with the character and miss their positive and negative experiences The lines are mostly unrealistic and feel like they havent been given much attention It was a pity for me who thought that he would watch a really good movie I hope we can see a development in a different direction in the next films.

Gulse Birsel, one of the notable names of contemporary Turkish comedy made a new year's eve movie definitely worth watching. The movie is very good since it presents Gulse Birsel's humor but in a more critical sense. The movie brings stark criticisms towards contemporary Turkish society and the aura of Turkish politics through the characters that come together incidentally in a new year's eve night celebration during a Covid-19 lockdown. Those well-played characters are people who we know from our lives. In today's Turkey, Gulse Birsel made a blunt, political yet a naive comedy which we missed. The crew, the characters they play and the acting is also very good, except the lack of chemistry between Fatih Aritman and Sebnem Bozoklu.

I watch the film with seven other people. Our ages were between 19-45. I can't really understand the negative reviews, I think they go back more to the connotations regarding the political situation in Turkey. So more defamation of a Gülse Birsel film than a real review. Anyway, we all thought the film was great. We laughed heartily and had great fun. Of course, the film appeals more to Turkish humor, but it's still funny and entertaining. Great ensemble, interlinking of the stories, good situational comedy and comprehensible twists do the rest.

Maybe the only thing is that it was definitely shot in a warmer month. That rather dampens the new year's eve mood than it should, but in Antalya you can still go swimming at that time.

We had to watch this film, which was a great disappointment, with astonishment.

I unfortunately classify Gülse Birsel's film, which we were waiting for with great expectations, as the worst film I have seen this year.

I'm amazed that so many good actors accepted to such a scenario. It was far below expectations.

A pointless scenario with irrelevant themes chasing each other. For us, it was a complete waste of time.

There was not a single scene where we laughed. It's very sad, and I hope we never watch such a disappointing scenario again. Humor was a long way from this movie................

Ms Birsel used to make modern comedies, making you really laugh for more than 15 years. Characters, scripts, set-up are mismatched in this movie. Script is based on a rich family's New Year Eve gathering with their neighbors, which that don't know much at all. She is also an actress in this movie, like all of her movies. Her performance is not linked to the character. Cengiz Bozkurt and Boran Kuzum were very good. Her last movie (Aile Arasinda) was on 2017 and her performance both as the script writer and actress were far better. Director of the both movies are the same. All the other actress/actors seems to do well; still the movie cannot entertain you, script failure. Was not funny at all.
