Just when you think Head-On is going to be another high-concept (albeit manically energetic and unconventional) romantic comedy the director slams on the brakes. What follows is a meditation on lost love, loyalty and how to move beyond your past, no matter how much it may sting.

Typically, the problem with this type of redemption movie is the way the characters lose all their vitality on the way to normalcy, and suck the life out of the picture in the process. Akin can't avoid this entirely, but the incredible misanthropic energy of Ünel and the luminous Kekilli carry it much farther than I anticipated. Akin roots it all effectively in cultural friction, patiently turning a plot device into a foundation for his characters and their overriding alienation.

A potentially strong story if everything wasn't overdone to the point that it spirals out of control after the first act. From then on it's just about how long you can take of people getting wasted, spanked, fucked and cut on their limbs by shattering glass repeatedly. By the end it has completely lost its message, if it ever had one.

It's quite good, especially the second half. The characters go through a transformation, and it's both heartbreaking as uplifting (in a strange way..) to watch. I also like how it shows the Turkish culture
