Bringing back the lost love is told in a lively and real way which we can also experience

Warning: Spoilers
I watched "Dönerse Senindir" in the gala held on Wednesday 21 December 2016. In my opinion this is one of the best love films among recent Turkish movies and has many lessons to be learned about relationships. Although this is a romantic comedy, the subject is processed in the film as a real event that we can all experience in our lives by including very little romance and a little comedy which makes the story better than the other movies' stories in this genre.

The scenario is very well organized adding fun to a plan of regaining someone special. The actors and actresses play very naturally while there is a little child like a love doctor who surprisingly gives a different perspective to the plan.

In some detail: Mehmet is an idealist advertising photographer who has just separated from his girlfriend Selin. He deeply suffers from love pain but doesn't lose his hope of regaining her. Then he meets the mysterious Defne, who encourages him to take action before everything is too late. With the other close friends of Mehmet, they make a secret plan to bring back the lost love, Selin who is a very popular singer now, and the hopeful adventure which no one is sure of its ending whether it will be happy or not, begins.

This is the third movie of the popular singer Murat Boz and his role, Mehmet, fits him very well. Murat Boz again proves he is also a good actor besides being a very successful pop star.

Yasemin Allen in the role of Selin, is very beautiful in this film as always and displays her acting ability this time with a new stage performance of her: Singing. Singing makes her more elegant as a star. Her role Selin is not an ambitious girl but she knows what she wants from life and tries to achieve her dream job.

İrem Sak, who is a very talented actress, is in the role of Defne, a new friend for Mehmet. She surprisingly appears and gets included in Mehmet's life.

Uraz Kaygılaroğlu appears here as the best friend of Mehmet and brings fun, vividness to Mehmet's life and also to the scenario.

Congratulations also to the production group, TAFF Pictures which has many other successful movie and TV projects.

There are some other details that I would like to mention about "Dönerse Senindir" in this review but it would be better if you watch it yourself first.

Lastly, I would like to add that the song of the film is meaningful and the rhythm is very well and here I translated the lyrics to English:

Dönerse Senindir:

You've hugged emptiness

Your gravity has gone

Crumbs of your heart

Have become birds' appetizer

You've felt offended in vain

Your memory's been all broken

You've made yourself exhausted

Your dreams've become ashes

Wishing him/her to be beside you

Don't get sad anymore, stop

If he/she really loved you

At the end he/she will be yours

If he/she returns, he/she is yours

If he/she hadn't loved you, nothing could have been done

If it happens that he/she doesn't return,

Even so, as he/she wishes,

Should one say "Stay" to someone leaving?

Poor writing. Bad liness. Fun to watch. Only Irem Sak's acting is good.

Nice movie without high expectations
utkuozan16 July 2017
This movie is a classical romance where you can guess the end and the way of the things before interval. Do not expect anything original or no big surprises.

On the other hand all actors and actresses are above an average and they all fit to the movie. making the movie go smoothly. Although this is classical it does not become boring at any second. The tempo is well adjusted and changes are smooth that does not bother the viewer. Also views from Kadikoy streets are warm and animations are not exaggerated and well-used.

Do not expect a classic that will be remembered 20 years from now on, but if you have 2 hours to spend in a warm nice romantic movie which is well done, this is a great alternative.
