Beautiful movie!

Rating: 10/10 (26 March 2015)

When you see Russell Crowe act in his own movie, well, that combination is unstoppable!
After the Battle of Gallipoli, in 1919, an Australian farmer, Connor (Russell Crowe), travels to Turkey to find his 3 missing sons. While staying at a hotel in Istanbul, he meets Ayshe (Olga Kurylenko), the hotel manager. And tries to find a way to Gallipoli.
Whatever you thought after you watched trailer, you are WRONG! This movie gives us everything: Action, drama, a bit of romance, good dialogs, NO Clichés, good acting etc., you have a perfect movie.
Acting in this movie is great. Russell Crowe did his best, not only in directing, in acting as well. His hope that one day he will find his three sons is really good shown. Other actors, for example Olga Kurylenko and Jai Courtney, didn't do bad too.
There are not much special effects , but when they are, they are done will. For example, shooting out of cannon is done well. War scenes are done well too. I wasn't expecting that much from this movie.
Soundtracks fits in every scene. That sad atmosphere is good made with those soundtracks.
At the end, I am recommending this movie to everyone who like war movies.
