    Magnificent, superb masterpiece of Turkish cinema !

    This is my first review on IMDb. I loved many films but in no case was so motivated to write a review ! I went to "Mucize" (Miracle) with little bits expectations but I was truly overwhelmed with this superb story of Mahsun Kirmizigul. I can not remember another movie where I have cried more then this! It is about people who loves other people without expectations. It is about courage of a man who only wants that children go to school and therefore he moves from his city to a place what you can call "the middle of nowhere"...It is about love what is defined as the key for reach your target...the film looks like real life. All of the characters have played very well but there is one person who have played his role SUPERB ! That is the crazy man : Aziz (Mert Turak) ! The character who plays te handicapped man with a truly amazing emotional bond with his horse. ( I have read somewhere that he has been lived 3 months with the horse to make this possible). He plays the character so perfect that I thought that he really was crazy / handicapped ! In the first half of the movie are so many good jokes that you can think it's a comedy. In the second half the film transforms in a emotional roller-coaster what's putting you in a story that is no more forgettable in your whole live ! A person, who is saying I own a heart, will cry ! There are also more Turkish films like, Eskiya (now in the top 250 of IMDb), babam ve oglum etc. what I can say they were very good but this peace of cinema from early singer Mahsun Kirmizigul is near PERFECT ! See it to believe it. 10 stars out of 10 !

    I'm confused

    Aziz looks up to the sky, shouts and echo effect, slow motion. Aziz shouts and echo effect, slow motion etc etc. Mahsun designed a cheap drama, but not as cheap as designed. It wasn't sincere to take every opportunity to add emotion. The end was too fast. I loved the emotion the movie brought about. But many things were clichés and compulsions.

    A Brilliant Story about Life,Love and Compassion

    The first thing I love about this movie is the storyline. It starts with a journey and takes to a different path.

    The second thing I love about the movie is location and cinematography.

    I wonder why this movie is not in the famous movie review blog's list.

    It is a must-watch kind of movie.

    The name of the miracle, but really

    Based on a true story was crafted a great film. The power of love in the name of humanity, nature, love of country and unique images accompanied by children. Talented players and a friendly and natural rendering of the theme with them. Disabled man's role is admirable. Artistic nature images from the corner of Eastern Anatolia watchable and catchy. If you are craving of 1960s in the frames of the movie will take you to that date, unless this particular corner of the world. I have to admit, director of this film is also a famous singer and musician but I'm not a big fan of him, but this movie is great. The makers and players need to celebrate.

    The ACTING

    Surely it's a great film, you've already seen some great reviews I'm sure. But the most amazing part of the film to me is acting of Mert Turak. While watching the film, so many times I was feeling like googling who this guy is and if he's actually crippled. What a talented actor he is!
