When I watched this movie for the first time back in the 70s when I was a kid, all my friends and I began pretending those guys in the movie, the way they talk and walk. Especially almost everything Sener Sen (Sakir) said in the movie became instantly part of our slang: Konusma lan: Shuddupp! Dokunma lan: Don'touch! Here is a funny (in Turkish) conversation from the movie: - Cicek Abbas: hey guys, tea for everyone from me, I buy it. Let's celebrate! I am a bus driver too now. - Sakir: I don't want your tea. - Cicek Abbas: OK, tea for everyone except Sakir. - Sakir: What do you mean by Sakir? - Cicek Abbas: Isn't your name Sakir, Sakir? What can I call you? - Sakir: You don't get it. You should call me, like Mr.Sakir, big brother, or Uncle Sakir, or Sir, Sakir. - Cicek Abbas: Oh I got it now. But I am sorry, that was old days that you were my big brother or uncle. Now I am your fellow driver, Sakirrrr!

I actually did not know that Sinan Cetin was the director of this movie. If he could go on making this movies he could have been best director today but apparently he's chosen to be richest.Anyway, Cicek Abbas very nice window to 70' Turkey where immigration from rural areas to big cities boosted and new suburbs getting created.Sakir (played by Sener Sen) is the driver and the owner of the bus, he's rude and senseless guy while Abbas (played by Ilyas Salman) is Sakir's helper in the bus and he's dreaming to get his own bus one day.Abbas also represents the people who came to city in hope to save some money and return back to village, get married to girl he loves and start a better life. Most of them never returned though. Instead they turned the city into a big village.Many scenes of this movie has a place in people's minds and hearts. This couple (Sakir and Abbas) argue each other all the time but both are very funny, every thing they say crafted well and makes you smile.The movie gets you to cry some times too like good old Turkish movies. You see and feel the honesty and straight forwardness of Abbas and while he's suffering you're crying easily.One of the best Turkish movies of all time.

A magnificent combination of pure and sincere feelings with real-life situations. Love and passion hand in hand... One of the first works of Sinan Cetin, Cicek Abbas successfully reflects the passion of a poor lover to cope with all the difficulties he faces... Apart from the theme and wonderful acting of Ilyas Salman and Sener Sen, the musics of the film are also fascinating! Cahit Berkay's soundtracks for this film contributes quite much to the emotional deepness of the film. You will close your eyes to the outside world and your ears to the outsiders; and feel the purity of hearts which is now on the verge of extinction... Strongly recommended!

This movie is a really funny movie, BUT if you are accustomed to Turkish suburban culture which was formed during 70's in great metro-pols such as Istanbul. Although its main theme is a universal one -love-, in order to understand its brilliant jokes,as I mentioned, you need to be accustomed to this culture. You can watch two of greatest artists of Turkish Cinema in this movie. Unlike other "jöns" in Turkish Cinema(Cuneyt Arkin, Kartal Tibet), Ilyas Salman and Sener Sen are great artists and showed great performance.A small note about the director: This is the first, best and the "only good" film that this director produced. Probably it is not worth to watch his other films.(Except "Propaganda" maybe, in which Kemal Sunal and Metin Akpınar shows a pretty good performance)
