I just finished watching it, and once again, unfortunately, it was a disappointment. Netflix Turkey continues to produce works that are simple and, in my opinion, well below the expected level. The simple and poor ending, along with an uninteresting 2nd and 3rd act, truly surprised me.
Firstly, the film's obvious flaw, in my opinion, was the idea of turning the romantic-comedy plot established in the first 40 minutes into a game played by a married couple and two strangers who are new to each other. This idea caused the entire first 40 minutes to be wasted because there was no smooth transition between the two parts. It felt as if Beren Saat and Kivanc Tatlitug played some scenes six months ago and some scenes six months later, damaging the performances of these two actors. Their performances were generally ordinary due to this imbalance, and in a film like this, the acting should have stood out.
Another part I didn't like at all was the ending. It became tedious with the cliché of connecting everything to a suitcase and an overly clichéd reunion. I got bored at the end, even though around the 30th minute, I thought they had at least managed to make a light-hearted film.
The film's only positive aspect was its successful portrayal of New York. Having such an opportunity and creating this film with a scenario reminiscent of a middle school Wattpad book is incredibly funny and bad. It's a disgrace that there is nothing different in all the Netflix Turkey works I've watched recently; there's zero imagination, which is a huge disappointment.
The music selections were successful, and there were two or three scenes with fast cuts that worked well. The costume choices were okay; I liked them. However, a terrible script, combined with two actors who were influenced by this script and acted artificially, ruined the film.
In the final paragraph, let's reflect on this. It's incomprehensible to gather such talented actors and produce such dull works. Has our imagination really died? I've seen many things much more quality than this for ten or twenty thousand dollars. I don't think it's about money. There's nothing more to say; it's a shame.
