Review of Börü

Börü (2018)
1/10
Disappointing, It's a shame.
29 December 2018
Börü (Wolf) was streets ahead of all other tv series in Turkey. I was very hyped for its movie. However, it was really disappointing for me. First lets talk about good parts of the movie. In terms of colors and shooting angles, this movie is a world-class one. Some of the actors did their job really good, in acting of course. Unfortunately, good parts are over.

Now for the bad parts of the movie... First part on my list is dialogues. They are just awful. For a moment i thought i was watching an American movie. Too long stories are told in the movie and because of this some scenes are unnecessarily long and also boring.

Second, visual effects and cgi. I mean, i live in Turkey and i am kinda in its cinema industry and i know it is hard to find financial support. I also know there are no enough skilled cgi and vfx companies in Turkey. But this is not an excuse. It should not be an excuse. You should look for other options. Because vfx and cgi are really important factors in these sort of movies. This movie simply failed in terms of vfx and cgi.

Third, sounds. I really couldn't understand what you tried to do but if your goal wasn't creating an interesting atmosphere then i can say that sounds were bad organized. Sometimes i felt like you forgot to put a sound for a shot or a punch.

Fourth and the last part, casting. Acting of some actors are good in the movie but in my opinion some of the actors dont quite suit for their roles. For example, without wishing to lay down the law, i think Zafer Algöz -i think he is a good actor btw- doesnt really suit for Osman Alan character -which is a character that Americanized-.

Generally, i didnt like the movie. As i said, colors and shooting angles are nice but movie is bad edited. Also some scenes are idle. Didnt satisfy my expectations.
