Three Monkeys

Walking a fine line over cliches

This film is visually stunning. Cinematography is great, enhanced by thoughtful editing: It's like doing an ink painting on rice paper---a long freeze frame, and the feeling that it slowly fades out.

However, "Three Monkeys" is a noir; this is the first genre film I have seen by Ceylan. While being a noir may gain some audience who might otherwise have not been interested in a Turkish arthouse, it suffers the usual cliches associated with film noir and distracts the film-maker and the...

Literary overflow

The long takes throughout the film make every shot have a definite meaning. The montage was so severe that it even seemed too dry, and the useless process was completely cut off. The inside of the mirror is very long, but the space between the mirrors is very short. The passage of time is all focused on the inside of the camera instead of the montage, but the inside of the mirror is often a large section of blank space and a leaky faucet-like dialogue. This approach makes people feel how boring...

The choice is painful!

The sun has never been able to dispel the haze, and the streets are like wandering alone.

Imprisoned space, jumping from one to another...

choice, is painful!

Nuri Big Ceylan's directing skills must not be underestimated, and the long shots solidified to the point of scorching flesh! It is precisely because it is extremely quiet that the audience can concentrate on paying attention to those living environments that are so familiar that they turn a blind eye....

Three poor and pathetic "monkeys"

After watching it, I can't calm down for a long time. It seems that my emotions have not yet come out of the gloomy and sad images and plots. The complex eyes of the protagonist are like needles that still pierce my heart, and I feel a pain...

Like many pasts with a documentary nature Like other drama films, tragedy, breath of life, cruel social reality... These elements may make people feel that the film is heavy and deep, but I think this is not the key to moving me, the key may be...

three monkeys

As Turkey's brilliant film this year, "Three Monkeys" has far more directing skills than "Slumdog Millionaire" I watched yesterday or the day before yesterday.

    See no evil, speak no evil, and listen to no evil. Like "three monkeys", this family of three hides the secrets of themselves and others in the depths of their hearts: "Don't see, don't listen, don't tell" Inability to suture. The drowning young son is the most difficult pain for the family to ignore. Although the three of...

The Turkish version of thunderstorms, with three constantly close-up folded faces full of expressions. I really like the handling of the camera shots, but the depression of emotional accumulation is like focusing on three rainstorms, which is really boring to watch. Given the quality of the film, Ceylan could consider making a horror...

It is difficult to say that there is any unique creation in the plot, but the creation of a depressing and dark atmosphere allows us to understand the overall cultural dilemma of Turkey and see the selfish and contradictory side of human...
