  • Reviews

    Emrah Güler, writing in Turkish Daily News, states that the film "delves into a recurring theme in Turkish cinema for the last couple of years, the existential angst faced by second-generation men whose families have migrated to Istanbul in the hopes of better lives," and recommends it to those "who are curious about the hype surrounding Turkish cinema’s answer to Martin Scorsese and Guy Ritchie," but not to those "who are bored by the recurring theme."
