Witness the history
yigitkarakis6 March 2017
Warning: Spoilers
Usually a biography is written after death or resignation. This may be the first political biography written while the subject's still alive and governing the country. As expected; the movie never mentions how Erdogan empoweres the Gulen movement against innocent soldiers and how he defended the Gulen movement when they were capturing all the critical positions within the army, police, intelleigence and justice deparments. The movie doesn't mention how he empowered the terrorist PKK against his own army. Doesn't mention how he failed to overthrone Esad which led to millions of Syrians leaving their countries.

The movie underlines one simple idea. How magnificent he is. The most manipulated story telling I've ever seen. Even Goebbels would find it a bit "extreme".

You expect a very high production quality when you think of how easy to fund this movie with government sources but the director fails again. Obviously he has problems with modern art and contemporary story telling.

Acting was also not satisfactory but it was the least disastrous part of the movie. Everyone should watch it to witness the shameful history.

What a waste of time
mstlkn7 March 2017
A complete waste of time. Lower quality in everything we see. If there was 0 star rating in IMDb, I would definitely click on that. I've watched lots of bad movies but this one is definitely on the bottom. If you ever have 2 hours to spend on anything, I'd recommend you to try to invent time traveling machine or cure cancer instead of watching this awful movie.

Complete Garbage.
gokaycaliker8 March 2017
This movie was a complete waste of my time and energy trying to sit through every second, awful acting and misdirected plot. This movie also has more than a handful signs of a poorly portrayed propaganda. MAny of the happenings in the movie does not match the time period historically and has subliminal hate towards any who oppositions his beliefs.

Even the title is horrible..

Don't waste your time!

Propaganda movie funded by Erdogan's party
mertcetinkaya-625427 March 2017
This movie has been released right before the referendum which is going to define the future of democratic Turkish Republic. Referendum will define if Turkey will continue to be ruled with democracy or autocracy. Since the last four days after its premiere, although it has been distributed with 315 copies around Turkish Republic, it's only been viewed by 67.580 people, despite the biased efforts to make the propaganda more effective. The viewers' attention seems to be rather weak, and political propaganda through cinema seems to have failed. Sorry but cinema should not be used as a way of dictatorial propaganda.

waste of time
ersinkar-310477 March 2017
Its very successful movie as a propaganda of a political outlook but as a movie just waste of time. acting, costumes, scenario etc are so poor. I clearly say that this movie is filmed just for the propaganda of politicians just like...you know. In the future this movie can be great example for the worst movies and to show how a nation can be manipulated by these kind of politic and disgusting movies.

Probably the worst film ever
meteerdemftt7 March 2017
This is an awful film with a single message to glorify Mr Recep Tayyip Erdogan. We are used to the poor quality of the Turkish movies but this particular one is probably the worst ever, not worth watching unless you want to subject yourself the most excruciating political torment of admiring him at any expense. I wish there were an option of rating it zero star.

If you care about your time, you shouldn't lose it with this silly movie
dumanberat-102457 March 2017
it's a completely ridiculous and untruthful movie about him and his entire life. everyone who lives in turkey exactly know what is the facts behind his life and political career and they are reviewing here with many objective and real evaluations. there is no more need to explain all lies one by one, you should check past comments

Rezalet
tataryigit7 March 2017
It is a film that does not really meet expectations or even pass by. It's a pity for the players, but the screenwriter is a failed person We have to accept. This type of biographical film If it is done after the death of the grandmother, but not during the pricey days. Subject After the death of the person who made the biography film, Make a movie that is a separate topic.

Piece of Crap
namasteagra7 March 2017
just for the arts sake i wasted my time for watching this. Here we go, yes it is an absolute propaganda of the thing subject to the movie. moreover a significant evidence of somebody with no education, qualification and experience can go that high (oh yeah) in current Turkey. really guys ? is this the idea ? well this is your dude just like you.

the scenario, screenplay, acting and everything about the film is crap just like the subject because of the same idea, let movie making to professionals, otherwise you're just so funny.

Good movie except for some of the actors!
mobmafiawarsuser2 May 2019
Worth watching if you know about the dude. Not propaganda but quality of film is somewhat lacking unfortunately, which leads to bad reviews.

showing the devil as an angel
eymeneymenfi8 March 2017
Warning: Spoilers
No need to say or explain so long . He is a diseases, growing aggressively inside of Turkey. He and his followers are danger for all Living Beings. And this movie made for showing the devil as an angel. AKP forcing to people to watch the movie. Some of the AKP Mayors gives free tickets. If people are finally understood whats going on in turkey and not watching his propaganda movie maybe in the end there is a hope for Turkey.

0/10 i don't like this film
ozen_emre7 March 2017
I don't like this film. Because this isn't a biography. Some real things are missing on this film. Fethullah Gulen ( other names Feto) is not mentioned at all. It is not a film that reflects the truth... Things have not been fully addressed. I do not know what I wrote. I am translating from google to fill 5 rows.

Waste of time
svolochvikings9 March 2017
" There are movies that are bad. There are movies that are so-bad-they are good. And then there is Reis - a movie that is so bad that it defies comprehension. " Everybody knows the fact of the main character. How corrupted, how impudent, how rude to his own people if they don't share the same ideas. History books will write the true story about him & another movie will be made with the facts in it. No more to add ...

Awful
umutcaneryilmaz8 March 2017
An awful, inartistic, shitty propaganda movie. Oh man, please do not make such movies again!! I guess Putin already has a movie like this. And expect a movie like this in the next few years about Trump, directed by Steve Bannon. The purpose is just to fill the theaters with pro Erdogan material before the upcoming referendum.

Same Movie After 37 Years!
MarufDogrusoyler9 March 2017
Incredible! This movie is recasting of an unforgettable movie of 37 years past! It's recasting of famous, ultra funny, consciousness- expanding "Zubuk" movie!

According to Karl Marx historical events and characters repeat twice; the first time as tragedy, the second time as comedy.

But this movie proves the exact opposite; the first one was comedy; the second one was tragedy...

No, I'm wrong. This one is third repeat. I forgot the first movie about same character: Charlie Chaplin's "The Great Dictator"...

Just Propaganda
sanlio9 March 2017
I haven't watched the full film. Just watched all the trailers, videos, fragments I could find on the internet.

If I was convinced that it would worth, I would go to watch it in a movie. My opinion is, this is just a cheap propaganda.

It tells how the Islamists are oppressed by the "cruel military" and the secular regime during his early childhood and later. An old man is beaten at a mosque, blood coming from his face, because he is praying and singing "ezan" in Arabic. Another man, apparently his granddad, is taken away from his home by "cruel soldiers" when praying. I watched several more scenes like this.

I could not find any hint, any sign of good acting, good scenes, and at least objectivity.

This is not the type of movie to be rated here.

It should be distributed to his party organizations, fans and militants for worshipping him more and more....

For real film lovers, I don't recommend this film, it could only make Erdogan fans happy and content.

Where is Gulenists?
personaljesusz2 April 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Hey! Where is Fethullah Gülen in this movie? All of AKP and Erdogan thanked him for years. They said 'we owe our positions to him' and there is not a single scene about him in the movie. Bah.

propaganda
cugomaster9 March 2017
I could count millions of things to do instead of seeing this propaganda of a dictator and the biggest thief ever lived in Turkey. I am waiting for the movie that actually tells the truth about him. The truth about how he stole from people and let people die for his dictatorship.
