A well made movie with good acting but the pacing was a bit too slow and while there were many twists and turns the film lacked tension. The lack of tension and slow pace really made the film seem a lot longer than it was. By about the 95 minute mark I could feel myself getting antsy. Ultimately while I really liked the final twist I found the ending to be very unsatisfying.

bong'un filmlerini ne plotla, ne kamera işiyle, ne genel anlatım tarzıyla ilgili bir şey söyleyerek tanımlamak mümkün. adeta söze dökülemeyen bağlantıların filmini yapıyor ve bu süreçte elden bırakmadığı -burada da olduğu gibi- bazen çok nadir gözüken mizah anlayışıyla çok nüanslı bir açıdan bakıyor. her şey bir yana, şu final sahnesinden sonra dönüp yanındakine ya da kendine neyi, nasıl uyuşturarak kutladığını sormayan insan...

Interesting exploration of a mother's dedication to her son, mixing in a decent crime mystery with the character study. It throws in some sparks of violence and moral ambiguity for a pretty strong and engrossing film. I liked it, but couldn't get as deep as I would have liked into the main character. There were a number of great scenes and the bones of the film are good, I just didn't feel it was all connected together as well as it could have been.
