It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.
If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
The one of the very best movie of Tavuz Turgul's cinematography. Istanbul is the stage(iconographic background)all the characters are of warriors for their own existence for some reason.Time and city looses its originality day by day.Only the very best partners can have the same dream which may takes days. Love is so difficult to reach in that stage.I am not pessimistic in that point.Istanbul is becoming for something different from what it was before.True.There also is something new which is good and inspiring. The movie also carries of an important reference which reminds traditional "Gölge Oyunu-Karagöz=two partners arguing all the time for an artificial subject that they discovered for performance" As a revolutionist I do not agree with the idea that the movie says ;no way out to get this capitalistic degradation.
if you run an eye over the cast you can clearly see these are one of the best actors of Turkish cinema (sener sen, sevket altug etc.) and imho yavuz turgul is the best director of Turkey. well, this makes that movie interesting (and also strong), isn't it?anyways, golge oyunu is briefly a story about friendship, losers and existence. i know these are all separate subjects. but, just watch it. and also, golge oyunu is the first (and only) fantastic movie experiment of Turkish cinema as far as i know. look at that, yavuz turgul has directed "The Matrix" 10 years ago :)
