Art of Love

I'm going to write this review in a way that avoids giving any spoilers at all. Here goes...the one-line plot summary sounded good, but it turns out the way the lackluster and hole-filled script - dialogue, transitions, important moments - was written and executed seemed as though it was pulled off a teenager's even-worse-than-mediocre Wattpad fanfic page.

The plot is contrived nonsense, and by about 10 minutes in, you know exactly what's going to happen. There's zero suspense, only predictability littered with boring cliches along the way.

There is zero chemistry between the lead actors. They are both very good looking, but there's zero fire, passion, or electricity between them. Zero character depth or growth throughout the film. Zero investment in the characters individually or as a "couple."

The shooting locations were beautiful. That's the only positive, hence the one star.

I have to say that I was most shocked at how bad the performance of the lead actress was. I discovered Esra Bilgiç through her role as Sibel on Ramo a few years ago, and she was absolutely legendary. Her talent then was the complete opposite of what I watched here, and it was extremely disappointing. I hope she will re-hone her acting skills, and then go back to taking on valuable, legendary roles instead of cheap, vulgar, contrived, forgettable trash characters like Alin.

Skip it.

The only good thing about the movie was the locations in which the movie was shot. Otherwise, it is a cheap, low budget and tasteless movie. The plot is wafer-thin, the story inconsistent and the climax non-existent. The acting was bad and the direction was amateurish at best. The direction focuses more on cheap, gross and tasteless stuff than the actual story line.

The lead actress has been gradually building her stature in industry with solid roles like those in Ataturk, Dirilis: Ertugrul and Ramo, and had been building an aura of grace, beauty and solid acting. This role ruins this image completely. The role focuses on cheap, distasteful and vulgar stuff, rather than any opportunity to demonstrate acting skills. The role suits more to a desperate B-grade movie star, rather than an A list actor. In my opinion, this role will hurt the stature and reputation of the lead actress in the long run.

Overall, an utter and sheer disappointment on all fronts.

The storyline stolen from the classic "The Thomas Crown Affair". Its not an adaptation. No credit to original story writer. There are two versions; one with Steve Mcqueen and Faye Dunaway made in 68 and the other one made in 1999 with Pierce Brosnan and Rene Russo. They're both decent, good time movies. I can not say the same thing about this one.

Such a shame wanna be writers steal from a classic and getting away with it. These writer make a living of a stolen idea when such original stories waiting on the sideline in Turkey. Netflix Turkey has become so corrupt no talents are welcome there. I'm sure global Netflix has no idea what kind of shananagans going on under its management.

I thought that hallmark movies were only for north America . , but in this case this movie could have worked if they took a little more time and maybe some better actors. I am not sure if it's the story because premisses is there and this should been a very good movie. Great location just poor acting and editing is the only i can think why this movie is so bad even for a romance movie in the end i keep watching it not because of the movie location and beautiful scenary which is excellent. So with that in mind i gave it a 4 stars. But it could have been much better oh well enjoy it as long it's free dont pay for it.

Despite good cinematography and captivating locations, the movie falls flat with its clichéd plot, lackluster scriptwriting, and subpar acting. The revelation that the art thief is the protagonist's ex-lover feels contrived, and the attempts to inject suspense fall short due to predictable twists. The performances are hardly adequate and they struggle to breathe life into characters that feel one-dimensional and lacking in depth. The chemistry between the leads, meant to ignite the screen with passion and conflict, fizzles rather than sparks, making it difficult for viewers to invest in their journey. While the visuals offer moments of aesthetic pleasure, they can't compensate for the film's overall lack of substance. The movie may dazzle the eyes, but it leaves much to be desired in terms of storytelling and execution.
