Hayaletler (2020)
Why the need to put every Turkish problem in one film all at once?
This film feels like a very complex dystopic salad with overused ingredients.
Feels more like a documentary trying its best to contain as many current world problems as possible rather than a film.
Alright the film has a story to tell, but this story is trying to showcase every problem in Turkey all at once, which was, for me, tiring to watch.
Economical problems, the refugee problem and how natives take financial advantage of of them, the women's rights, the unlawful destruction and construction of buildings, ignorance, everything all in one film. I saw some reviews of people saying "They didn't mention the topic of unattained teachers" as if its a film's responsibility to show everything, but in this case, they show too many problems and leave them superficial that I can understand people being like "They didn't tell my problem:( "
Second time watching didn't go so well with me.
Props to the team though, hope they take this criticism as a "criticisim" and not a hate comment.
Can't wait to see what comes next!
Call Me by Your Name (2017)
A Nostalgic summer melancholia
A true love story that left me with deep feelings of nostalgia and melancholia.
This film relates to most of us because it's shot in wide-angle cameras with lively bright colors which give the film a very memory-like aesthetic that even though I've never been to northern Italy or lived in the 80s, I still feel the sadness and miss a time which I hadn't live through.
Timothée and Armie portray their characters in the purest way possible, two people experiencing a love that's hard to find, the type of love that never loses it's purity and power, because of the flames of the first sight, the special occasion in which it started.
It's cinematically beautiful as well, both summer and winter sequences capture the essence of the season in a magical way.
I'd love to come to northern Italy one day and ride a bike through the streets of Crema.
Dark Shadows (2012)
Feels like a walk under dark rainy weather, gloomy but beautiful
This film has one of the best atmosphere creation of all time. The dark atmosphere of the 70's Maine couldn't be made more aesthetically magical and pleasing. It also has one of my favorite intros in cinema history. It makes me feel nostalgic even though I haven't lived through those times.
There are scenes which scared me and sequences which made me laugh.
Barnabas is portrayed really wickedly and out of that time, and Carolyn's character is so intriguing yet beautiful.
While some people say they didn't like it because of the script, I see this film as a Tim Burton piece, as if it is a painting. He creates a world with life in it, and the film lives and speaks for itself.
This is the first film I watch whenever I need my mind to be somewhere else and live in a different time.
And when I hear the Moody Blues say "Nights In White Satin, never reaching the end", I know I'm about to start a journey which feels like a walk under dark rainy weather, gloomy and dark yet cinematically and aesthetically beautiful.
The Social Network (2010)
A cinematic masterpiece
From the very first scene, I could tell this film was going to be something special. Dialogues are well written and they are delivered in the most orderly way that there were times which made me stop for a few seconds and appreciate the screenplay of Aaron Sorkin after some lines uttered by Mark.
Even though the story tells how one of the most famous social networking sites of today was founded, it's told in the most chilling and inspirational way possible that I started to listen to Hand Covers Bruise (the intro soundtrack) whenever I'm working on something and need motivation.
Jesse Eisenberg and Andrew Garfield have a really good on-screen chemistry that two different characters with very contrasting emotional ranges give the most emotionally profound friendship story.
David Fincher's cinematography and Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross' soundtracks make the film a cinematic masterpiece.
