The silver screen flickers, transporting you back to a tumultuous era in Turkish history - the War of Independence. Amidst the struggle for freedom, a beacon of hope emerges, not from the battlefield, but from the verdant pitch of a football stadium. This is the story of Fenerbahçe, the biggest sports club in Turkey at the time, and their electrifying victory against the British occupiers, a triumph that resonated far beyond the final score.
The year is 1923. Istanbul simmers under the weight of British occupation. Yet, amidst the hardship, the resilient spirit of the Turkish people flickers brightly. And where hope thrives, resistance finds its voice. Fenerbahçe, more than just a football club, embodies this spirit. It serves as a sanctuary, a space where national pride and defiance interweave.

It's a great movie. The stance of the Turkish nation against the occupation, the spirit of resistance and the moral support given by Fenerbahçe to this spirit are marvelously portrayed. It is impossible for any patriot to leave the movie, where the acting performances reach their peak, without tears in their eyes. It is a folk tale that shows how a nation that defended its independence in the face of British and French occupation survived and how it was able to maintain its thousands of years of history. Fenerbahçe Sports Club is as committed to the principles of its founding philosophy today as it was then. As a Galatasaray supporter, I was proud of the glorious Fenerbahçe. Especially when the club I supported took a stand in favor of the occupation forces during the occupation period and made propaganda against Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the nobility of Fenerbahçe, the people's team, made me think.
First of all, the story is about a football club in Turkey, Fenerbahce, during the independence war times. The rival teams' fanatic fans are writing wrong and fictitious comments here about such a nice movie, bringing their fanatizm to the area of art. Shame on you. I am disgusted by those who disregard anything else than they like and moreover attack, hurt, distroy.
As for the movie, it is well written, well played. It does not exaggerate what happened and just gives the facts even including portraits of rival teams during that era.
Anyone who enjoy period movies will like it, especially the period of first world war.

There are very few films where my feelings went very high while watching, the story, the film adaptation, the actors in the game and the whole spectrum are simply unique and everyone who sees the film will not regret it, and I saw some negative reviews up there . These are from fanatical fetösaray fans who haven't seen this film at all. They just made the comments and badmouthed the film. That shouldn't stop you from watching the film today. As I mentioned above, a wonderful film, you won't regret it. Don't be misled by the bad reviews that are not justified at all. Great film, great actors, great acting, watch the film and then you can judge for yourself.
"The Color of Victory" is not only a historical film, but also a masterpiece that inspires the human body to discover the strength and perseverance. The film takes the audience to the extraordinary victories of Turkey in the field of athletics at the 1924 Paris Olympics. With the masterful touches of the director, he makes the audience experience the difficulties and struggles of that period, but at the same time preserves the physical potential and determination of the human being.
One of the impressive aspects of the film is the depth and emotional connection of its characters. Viewers are exposed to the struggle of athletes, not just athletes, but also people, to earn their money and achieve their dreams. The performances not only move the audience emotionally but also encourage them to connect with their characters.
Visually, "The Color of Victory" is stunning. The rich details, atmospheric atmosphere and vibrancy come alive, while the on-stage cinematography and spectacular scenes captivate the audience. It takes the viewer back to the past and makes them relive that period, almost like a work coming from a painting.
Finally, the themes and messages in the film remind us of how important not only sports but also human strength and perseverance are. He emphasizes that victory is not just a medal or a trophy, but an inner achievement and personal growth.
"The Color of Victory" is much more than just a sports movie. It offers an inspiring journey that goes deep into one's soul and an unforgettable experience.
