Blue Cave

One of the best films I've seen. The love, the sadness, the loss, the happiness, the fear, it's all here. Everything fits together perfectly. Kerem is a great actor but he has also proven to be a very good and magical writer. The harmony with Devrim was something crazy like their chemistry. I hope they still work together. It's not the usual Turkish film full of clichés, it's different, a journey in search of lost love that turns into something surprising. Kerem and Devrim made the characters their own, making them very real and this is why the story becomes real, naked and raw. The last twenty minutes rip your heart and soul out of your chest. This film must be seen, tears are guaranteed.

Baby don't hurt me ... don't hurt me ... well you know the rest (if you know the song) ... I also could have written "love is a battlefield" .. because the man is a soldier (forgive my over explaining, but some may not have seen the movie - so no pun intended). Will that even matter for you? Tough to say to be honest.

There is romance in the air, there is a shy first flirt ... and then there is a back and forth (timeline wise) to show us where the characters end up "today". I would say what the movie might be hiding under the guise of a twist ... I think is quite clear ... we are not blue (whatever that may mean) ... I do like the color, but that is besides the point.

The movie is there to show that we should live life to the fullest - to enjoy and cherish even the smallest moments. And also to do what we love to do ... with the people we love to do it with (no pun intended once more)

Mavi magara is a beautifully shot movie with incredibly likeable characters. The concept of the story is amazing, the characters are top tier. They are so human, so likeable that is rare in movies. The cinematography is gorgeous. Every shot gives the feeling of beauty and is worth it. By the end, I was truly moved, having come to deeply understand the characters and the message the movie was conveyed.

The lead actors Kerem Bürsin and Devrim Özkan delivered a star-making performances. When their eyes meet, there's a tangible connection between them. They make the characters' love feel so real.

I loved to idea of the movie, it was a highly creative story, very well written. Every dialogue had the meaning and hidden message.

The last 30 minutes of the movie I could not stop crying. It was so heartbreaking. If you don't tear up watching the very last scenes, then your heart is made of stone.

The actors played their roles extremely well, especially Kerem Bursin as the main character Cem. I think that this movie is a turning point in his career and we will see him even more in international projects. Playing in local turkish things is just not enough for someone who is as talented as him.

I want to avoid spoilers, so I won't go into details, but I definitely recommend watching this movie. It will leave you with a very special feeling and make you think about life.

A most emotional film that surely gets under your skin.

Kerem Bursin is absolutely breathtaking, and Devrim Ozkan is a discovered talent for me.

Intense, very meaningful and remarkable, but the ending is too sad to bear. Make sure that the box of tissues are nearby.

It is also worth mentioning the captivating music that accompanies us almost throughout the film. Whether you want to or not, it will draw you into the story.

I would definitely say that this movie ranks in my top 5 all favorites!

Turkey can be proud of producing such films, and one must wish that there will be more and more of them in the future.
