This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

One of the important pieces of Turkish cinema. You can feel different emotions during the picture. One time you feel sad and then it makes you smile. You can see all the aspects of Turkish people and culture in the movie. Main characters are well played by great Turkish actors. To sum up, a fine piece to watch.

"When people grow up, have they shrink your dreams?" Babam ve Oglum is the movie for who say i never cry. This is not just a movie, This movie is as real as real life. The film is so emotional. You will be both happy and upset when watching the movie, because you will understand the value of life, decisions, family. I have watched a lot of movies but never felt that much. This movie really manages to connect with the audience. You should don't think, you just watch.

Having seen a lot of Turkish films, I do agree with someone writing in this site that this is perhaps the best Turkish movie ever and one that can hold proudly its place amongst the best worldwide. Everything is perfect, direction, photography, acting, you cannot help but feel for its characters and identify with them, especially if you share the same location in the map, similarities in history and personality traits.I loved the child actor, he can make you smile and cry, but also the whole movie is about feelings, pain, sadness, anger, love, forgiveness and most important the joy of life.Another strong point is the music, made by the Greek composer Euanthia Reboutsika. Gave the movie wholeheartedly a 10 rating! I wish there were more of its kind.
