The immaculate direction, with the lusty brother and his nervous sister-in-law played out with such drama and verve with the camera panning and angled just right to maximize the fear we feel as to its outcome in the end. A really powerful film with as much theatrics with its final display itself. See more Jan 21, 2014 A good movie that ends up having some great twists and turns. It's interesting in that the movie follows the antagonist around. The construction of the story seems a bit rough. The acting is fairly good and the cinematography is nice. I would never have watched this movie if I knew they were going to kill a dog. The scene of them doing so seems to randomly come out of nowhere, so there's no foreshadowing of the event. They really kill the dog, too - no movie trickery or special effects. I wish I could unsee/unhear that... See more Jul 10, 2011 The concept can be maximized to any country fighting for basic riches and supplies over another country, just like Bush and his barbaric war over oil. Moreover, the next international war will most certainly be for water. Susuz Yaz is a phenomenal masterpiece of Turkish cinema that treats the population's respect towards the traditions within family hierarchies even in the most irresponsible and unjust circumstances. You will rarely meet a lead character so hateful and repulsive. 99/100 See more Read all reviews
