Çanakkale 1915 Audience Reviews

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Cooktopi The acting in this movie is really good.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
ccozkaraca The scenario is from the book "Canakkale 1915 Dirilis". So far it is the best movie ever made about the Gallipoli Campaing. Turgut Ozakman says "It took fifty years to write this book!" He has search every detail about what happened during this war. Not only from Turkish side, also he has searched from the Britisih, Anzac and French sides.Personally i loved this movie. Of course there are some parts could be better. Especially CGI parts needs a lot of work. But still many many thanks to writer, producer, director, players and everyone who worked for the movie.History will always remember you with our loving hero's!
l_rawjalaurence CANAKKALE 1915 isn't a great film, to be honest; rather obvious CGI effects cannot obscure the fact that there are few actors and a minimum of props available. There are a few obvious anachronisms: the British commanders are played by Turks with American accents talking about "the get-go" rather than "the beginning" of the military campaign - a phrase certainly not in use in 1915. But these are minor quibbles in a film that not only celebrates the unity of the Turkish nation, with everyone - men, women and children - playing their part in the war-effort, but suggests that success in battle came from a shared sense of purpose: no one was going to colonize Anatolian territory. With God's help, and a considerable amount of military know-how from Mustafa Kemal - later to become Ataturk, founder of the Turkish Republic - the Turkish army succeeded in their campaign against apparently impossible odds. The film suggests that national unity is as important today as it was nearly a century ago, as a way of defending oneself against invaders. At times we understand just how important such values as patriotism, the family, and religion are to members of the Turkish nation - values that, in parts of the west at least, are often overlooked.
hcemsipsi I like to film.Because I am from turkey and film is a realistic.This film is a moving and action.Film's story is a gripping.Turkey soldiers won the war and they was a successful.But a lot of people died.We saw Turkey soldiers helpful in the film.This film used special effects.Everything very good.I think everybody should watch this film.Because everybody should know Turkey history.I understood bad the war in the film.I think this film is better than some history film.
furkanov I had big expectations before i see this movie, if you can call it a movie because this is more likely a documentary. Because of this movie was based on a book from a famous writer, with its big budget about 10 million Turkish Liras (it may not be an expensive film for a Hollywood making, but it is for Turkish movies) i was thinking that i was going to watch a good story.After first 10 minutes, i understood that it was just an empty movie with its amateur dialogues, slipshod costumes and really annoying and poor musics. There was only 5 crowded scenes, and two of them were copy of each others. Before i start reviewing this film, i thought the only good thing about this movie was good intentions for making it, but when i rethink all the pain and suffering i had while i was watching it, i now begin to think it was only another trap to pull the audience to cinema saloons. And if you want Turkish cinema to develop and improve, please don't make the mistake i made and don't go to movies like this one. Big disappointment! I give it a 2/10, and this score of 2 is not for the movie, only for its name.
