i should live this film and but i do not. it won international awards and it is foreign (i usually like such films) it is slow moving (again something i like) and it has no gratuitous sex or violence. the problem is that it is boring. we have two friends from the same village in turkey one successful the other not. the unsuccessful one comes to istanbul to stay with the successful in an attempt to get a good job at sea. both live lives that are unfulfilling and pointless and petty. well and it isn not the first time this kind of film has been made. i do not see anything new being added to this tired theme. there are long takes that are just someone standing and looking at the sea or sitting in a coffee shop or watching tv. i do understand that this kind of thing is there to show the emptiness of their loves and while it does do that i got the idea in the first 15 min. i do not need to be beaten over the head with it for the rest of the two hours. the symbolism is also a bit heavy handed. the plate of live minnow type fish with one off the plate and flopping around in its death throws. symbols are best when they are not obvious but are there and in the background and creating a mood just slightly below the viewer awareness. the film is so apathetic and that it doesn not even rate a score of 1 and so i gave it a 2. to rate a 1 takes a talent at being bad. this film do not have that much energy.
