History's "restoration"

Rating: 4/10 (19 March 2015)

This film is a hideous Turkish (Kemalian) propaganda. Greek soldiers, pictured like a bunch of thieves, dressed like Cretans in ww2, appear to be invaders! All refugees are Turkish people instead! The slaughter of Armenians and Greeks of Pontos by the Turks, is well known to the universe! History is been demolished. In what way all that historical confusion has anything to do with young Australians's sacrifice in Kallipoli? Film's quality, on the other hand, is way bellow average. There is no consistency in the script, scenery has been set as in contemporary Turkish mini series, with aesthetics like Mexican TV series. Characters' development lack essence and complexity. Schematic plot, holds the viewers interest loose. Some interesting battle scenes and that's all. So same that Erdogan, a class A Turkish actor, known by Ceylan's films, is in the set. Russel Crow, should do himself a favor and stay out of directing (and cheap policy) from now on. See 1982's, Peter Wier's film with Mel Gibson, instead.
