I'm American and had the great pleasure to visit Istanbul and visit with a new Turkish friend who introduced me to this funny movie. We watched the video with English subtitles, and he explained the nuances of the Turkish jokes (çak "chuck" means "high five;" the Indian jokes, the cola joke, the puppets, etc - too many to mention) while I explained to him the nuances of the English jokes (Johnny Brokeback and others). I hadn't laughed that hard in years. Nice cinematography, amusing storytelling, and it left me wanting more - I wish they would please make the sequel where they go to China! Leave (some of) your brain at the door and just enjoy the fun!
