Mutluluk (2007)
10/10
Mutluluk(bliss) is a memorable journey everyone should venture on.
5 September 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Bliss starts out when a sheep herder finds a girl passed out by a waterhole. She is returned to her village where it is discovered she has been raped. This is considered a sin in her village, so she is locked in a room with a noose and told to hang herself. When she can't find the strength to take her life, the leader of the village orders his son to take her to Istanbul and kill her. That is when the story really takes off and the adventure begins.

This film combines outstanding acting and storytelling with stunning atmosphere and incredible music that will make it stay with you long after you watch it. The pacing of the film is slow enough that it lets you better enjoy all the atmosphere and music but not so slow as to become boring. In fact, the story is so well crafted that it will keep you wondering what will happen next throughout the film.

Bliss is an amazing film and I would recommend it to anyone that loves movies.

Jaffa (2009)
10/10
Jaffa is a masterpiece.
4 September 2013
Imagine a film with an in depth story that will keep you guessing. Imagine a film that has exceptional acting and interesting characters. Imagine a film that is just as gritty as it is beautiful. Imagine Jaffa, one of the greatest films you will ever have the pleasure of seeing.

Jaffa tells a remarkable story about a dysfunctional Israeli family that owns an automotive repair shop. The family's problems drive the story to places that you would never expect it to go. This is not a typical film at all. Just when you think you have it figured out, it throws a curve ball and leaves your jaw wide open. Jaffa is full of secrets, lies and betrayal that will keep you entertained until the credits roll.

Think of all the elements that make a movie great. Jaffa has all of those elements maxed out. It's a must see film for anyone that likes movies. It's a masterpiece.
