Organize Isler: Sazan Sarmali (2019)
Shockingly good sequel.
REVIEW FOR ORGANIZE ISLER SAZAN SARMALI
Having watched the original Organize Isler, I have to admit that the ONLY reason I decided to watch this sequel was because Kivanc Tatlitug's name was associated with it, as I found the original tedious, slow paced, lacking in humor, action and acting ability.
Wow what an incredible surprise I was in for. From the opening credits of the aerial views of the Bosphurus and Istanbul, paired with great uptempo music, it grabs your attention immediately.
The original main characters are back, still in the con game. This time the story centers around Aslim Noyan's daughter (Nazli) and her prospective husband, who is scammed out of his savings.
Kivanc's character Sari Surahan is the gambling mafia boss, which he plays to perfection. A pot bellied gangster, with a hilarious snicker/tick. He drives a gold Mercedes with a fur lined dashboard covered in plastic gold lions.
There are multiple plot lines running alongside each other with multiple different cons where one of Aslim's sidekicks falls foul of Sari Surahan. Lots of fast paced car chase scenes and boat chase scenes ensue. All extremely well done.
I can only imagine how difficult it must have been for the characters to keep a straight face whilst filming. The comedy timing is spot on. Superior script and acting by everyone in the movie.
Once again Kivanc Tatlitug is a standout in this movie. He amazes me with his ability to change his body shape, facial expressions, mannerisms, taking on completely different habits and creating a completely believable character. Sari Surahan may not be one of his prettier roles, but boy it's one you won't forget any time soon.
If I have anything negative to say, it is that Kivanc did not get enough screen time. This movie left you wanting more..... maybe this was by design, in order for a follow up sequel. This is probably one of his top 3 performances. The only reason it is not his top performance is because of lack of screen time IMO.
I fully expect this to do extremely well worldwide. In fact it is already holds Turkeys highest box office record for the first weeks opening ever. I highly recommend watching.

Very strong opening episode
It gripped me from the first minutes of viewing. As always Kivanc's acting explodes of the screen. Loving how intricately the plot is starting to unfold. I'm a huge fan.
Hadi Be Oglum (2018)
A once in a generation movie. It will stay with me forever
COME ON MY SON" - Hadi be Oglum
If you are English you have heard this phrase a thousand times or more. A term of encouragement - to push forward against all the odds.
KIVANC TATLITUG'S film of the same name exemplifies this simple phrase.
Hadi be Oglum is a story about a father's battle not to give up on his autistic son Efe. Kivanc's character as Captain Ali draws you into his world where he and his father are struggling to make a living aboard their boat.
He becomes a single dad to his son (Efe) after a girl enters his life for just 1 night - A "mermaid" as he describes her to his son.
Captain Ali shows us the depths of despair and the heights of elation as he tries to guide his son - looking to connect with him on an emotional level.
Alihan Turkdemir (who plays the role of Efe) is amazing. He portrays a 7 year old autistic child who is a savant. He speaks no words on screen but his every nuance, mannerism and facial expression leaves your heart aching for him.
Kivanc Tatlitug is mesmerizing as Captain Ali. His acting ability is just incredible. He pulls you into the world of Ali and from that first moment until the end you can't take your eyes off him.
Every facial expression, every mannerism is so believable sincere and heartfelt. He deserves world wide recognition for his amazing talent.
I have now watched this movie at least a dozen times. It's a movie you can't just see once. My poor husband (with a heart made of stone- his words lol) finally caved after my pleas to watch this and even he was moved to tears and recognized and respected KIVANC TATLITUG'S unique ability as an actor.
This film will make you cry and laugh and cry and laugh over and over again, but will leave you with the realization that miracles happen when you refuse to give up.
I will do everything within my power to watch this on the big screen.
PLEASE, PLEASE BRING "COME ON MY SON" TO THE ENGLISH AUDIENCE.
