The characters are not like Turkish.
Orhan_Akdeniz19 September 2018
I didn't watch the original movie. The characters are not like Turkish. The film is remake, just to make money. But it's a fun movie.

not bad
derintumer24 April 2020
I liked it until i found out that it was a complete rip-off from an italian movie. would've been an 8/10 if the idea was original. the sole reason that i liked the movie was because it was an interesting concept. acting and production wasn't amazing and the plot was a little repetitive.

Ripoff
bartuefekose18 July 2018
It's a total rip off of an italian film called Perfetti Sconosciuti (Perfect Strangers)

Even camera angles are copied

Don't support unoriginal movie people!

nice adaptation
CaliforniaRoll6 June 2022
Let me first start with an introduction that everyone has said in the comments. Yes, the plot of the movie is not original, but that doesn't mean it's not a good adaptation. I am aware that it was copied exactly from the original movie, but it was a nice Turkish adaptation. I must say I enjoyed watching it. I don't think the cast could have been chosen better. It would have been much better if there had been no efforts to make the film look marginal. They added a few scenes that were not in the original movie, but these scenes went against the flow of the subject. It was rated very highly for a movie without an original screenplay. Those who rated the movie did not know that this script was not an original script, while those who commented on the movie tried to defame the movie because it did not have an original script. We are a strange country :D.

It's not bad for Turkish cinema at all !
sinemhosgor20 October 2019
I didn't watched the original one so I cannot compare with them. But I watched this movie because I liked the cast and I wondered how is this movie like. There are seven close friends and they play a game while they eat dinner. And they notice that actually they hide important someting with each other. The story is in just a place. I liked the place design more.

Meybe the original one is better than this but at this time you know how Turkish cinema like. It is unfair to dislike this movie. Not perfect, but it's worth watching.

Plot Twists Again, Again and Again
alliwantislifevetra10 February 2018
This is one of the rare pieces of quality from the contemporary Turkish Cinema. For almost two hours you get to see the intensified dialogues, filled with depth, perfectly executed emotions, and subtlety. The plot is well designed with plot twists, and they get to hit you when you least expect them. It is also a well aligned with the popular plot twist phenomenon in what we see in series and movies, but in a gentle, delicate manner. Congrats to Ferzan, Serra and all cast, who really did an amazing job with this one. Highly recommended to see something with quality.

This isn't an original movie.
eksioglu7019 October 2019
This movie is the Turkish version of the movie Perfetti sconosciuti (2016). My advice you should watch original one.

I am proud and hopeful about Turkish Cinema again!
deniz-muezzinoglu2 February 2018
After making worst movies again and again. Turkish Cinema is trying to make some quality movies this year. Aile Arasinda is quite good Turkish Comedy but Cebimdeki Yabanci is the best drama/ comedy movie that i have ever seen. A lot of back and forth and suprises are included in that movie.

All characthers are really great and they fit this movie perfectly. If you are really find the look bad part of the movie. Maybe suprise events are too many so you get used to it. But this movie find a way to suprise you even you expected it.

It deserves 9.8 point for me. However, i really get into this movie and it is proudly Turkish Movie. Thats why i gave this movie 10! 10! 10!

This is the most beautiful movie that i have watched in my life!

CLONE OF THE ORIGINAL FILM
ilkinozsoz18 May 2020
Firstly, I am sorry about actors who perform very nice. However, the film is completely imitated from "Perfetti sconosciuti". Everything is exactly same but the actors. Interestingly, the rating of this film is 6.9. I could not understand that how can people gave 6.9 for a imitated film.

Not bad, not good
ahmedabdelwhab24 January 2022
I watched the original version (the Italian one) and the Arabic one (Egyptian and Lebanese), now I can say that both versions are way better than the Turkish version which was colder, lack of proper transitions without well-built dialogue.

The end is bad, the actors leaving thier friends's home by walks while the went by their cars at the beginning. The dialogue was so bad as well. I didn't enjoy it that much tbh.
