So, this is a movie for the finale of the "Börü" series. And, it was too bad, even for to be the final episode of the "Börü" series. Even some episodes of the serie was better than the movie.
I was hopeful about the movie. But that was not what I expected. I was almost asleep in the cinema.
Helicopter chase was extremely long, boring and absurd. That Cobra would have turned that armored vehicle into a Swiss cheese in 5 seconds, with it's 1500 rpm gun and with it's 20mm huge bullets. I think the pilot was drunk. No other explanation. Really absurd. It's almost an insult to the audience. Also cgi was bad for this scene.
Dogfight scenes were pretty good. Cgi was great, sounds, dialogues were accomplished. These were my favorite scenes. And the soundtrack for this part was very nice.
Gunfight scenes were not well coordinated and boring. These scenes were horribly awful. I have a suggestion for the director, there are choreograps for this kind of gunfight scenes, I think you'd better take their help. The same goes for the fight scene in the final. It was bad. I'm not a fan of it but, from what i see on Youtube, Bollywood is shooting better fighting or gunfight scenes. No exaggeration... Either it must be realistic, or it should be fun, although ridiculous. It was boring because neither one of them was here.
I really care about soundtracks. Soundtracks weren't wonderful. But they were good enough. It wasn't a minus or a plus for the movie. Just good enough. But it wasn't as pretty as I'd like to listen to.
And same problem continues, the sounds are not well organized. I think the good and well organized sounds are secret heroes that make a movie good. Most of the time, it's hard to notice them. But you feel that something is missing in their absence. I felt that. Sound design. Please work with people who can handle this.
The script was ordinary, mediocre. If we take a few scenes out, it was equal to the quality of a television series. That wasn't the final I was expecting.
And, the final scene was totally a comic sweet dream. I wish we could do that. Those who watched the movie understood what scene I was talking about. My sincerely advice to the director is to stop being a populist.
This film tells what happened that night through a small group of special police unit. But the film was far from reflecting the violence, chaos of that night. The July 15 coup attempt deserves a much more comprehensive film. But Turkey's current political situation will not allow it. What happened that night is still a mystery. And unfortunately it will stay that way for a while.
