Good action with many many many error

Rating: 6/10 (18 October 2012)

The movie is quite good but really there's so much errors in the making... 1- locations in Istanbul are nearly all wrong! When you take the ferry as Liam did from Sirkeci, you end up on the Asian side. But the movie continues on the European side?!? These police cars are no longer used, in fact since the 80's we don't have those ones. Now we have Nissan juke, mini cooper, navara... Istanbul isn't like this at all! You see everywhere 'ninja' disguised women! Come and see how modern and open we are. Sure there are extremists like this but it's not the whole population like described in the movie!!!!!!! When you see people like this on a movie based in turkey it's for sure you'll ask us if we ride camels and stuff.... And the USA embassy doing Hollywood stuff here? In fact due to their fear they have built a fortress on a hill and nobody could come near like this in a taxi (we don't use Mercedes as taxis, we have Hyundai, fiat, Toyota, and we don't use walkie talkies, we have mobile phones with pushtotalk feature for the cab drivers). And also the us embassy is like 30min of car ride from the actual places where the movie is shot, in 30 seconds they end up in the embassy, not possible. And also the route going to the embassy is nothing like described in the movie. If you want to do a movie about Istanbul, or that is actually happening in Istanbul, please directors, film makers, producers, come to Istanbul and live here for a month or two and see the places for yourself. Afterwards you can be judging Istanbul and turkey more easily and describing it with perfect accuracy. But don't do shitty movies like this, making look like third world countries. Mafia doesn't rule anything here.
