Overnight Republic (2017) User Reviews

political comedy

[Orhan_Akdeniz · 5/10 · 7 September 2020]

Some of the characters were hilarious, and the story and events were funny. I recommend it for a fun time. Towards the end of the movie I got a little bored. Still can be watched.

Waste of time..

Waste of time.. Brillant young actors made one of the worst movie i have ever seen

Horrendous!

Possible Side Effects: This one may cause deep urges to retire from movie watching for good. In Turkish, there's a phrase "Tel tel dokuluyor" (i.e., falling into bits and pieces) that best describes this production. Proceed with caution!

the smartest critic

[gokceozdemir-44565 · 9/10 · 24 April 2021]

This movie, despite the technical challenges, is one of the best system critics I have ever seen. The plot, the acting, the setting are purposefully all culturally inappropriate (or you may say too real that it is inappropriate) under the mask of humor. Highly cultural and requires a certain level of intellectuality, I have to say. Underrated.

One of the best absurd comedies ever.

It is hard to belive that the rating of this film is so low. I don't understand people who scored this movie under 7. I am sure that this movie reminds them the reality that we are all in and it is hard to accept by many people. The performance of the actors and actresses is wonderful and the jokes are hilarious and genius. I really enjoyed every scene of this brilliant movie.

Its funny

It is fun to watch

[danial-esm · 10/10 · 10 February 2019]

I suggest watching this movie to everyone. It is a brave comedy; however, the ending could be better like Iron Sky.

Very funny if you are a native Turkish speaker

First a warning...like many comedies, some jokes are lost in translation if you are relying on subtitles. However, in its native language the movie is very funny. Even if you are not a fan of absurd comedies, it has many memorable moments.

I haven't heard of this movie until it popped up my recommondations under a popular streaming service. I have seen it three times since then. I started the movie with very low expectations and the first 20 minutes was cute but nothing special. Then I was laughing out loud for a good hour. The last 15-20 minutes of the movie changes gears away from the comedy to tie the story. The characters are likeable and not overacted. The political satire is humorous but not preachy. I am hoping for a sequel .
