The movie resembles V For Vendetta in concept


After I watched Osmanlı Cumhuriyeti, V For Vendetta came to my mind. They can be put to same category.
I can easily call this movie a Satirical and Political film with an alternative history.

What could have happened if Atatürk died when he was a small child.
Today's situation in Turkey is not that far from what is shown in the movie.

Also the funny moments in the movie did not make me laugh, but they made me think All those jokes were full of irony.

The movie also shows why Turks fought for their country without weapons, shoes or food in harsh conditions while many Middle Eastern countries that were colonized by the imperialist countries did not. The movie tries to show the Turkic passion for freedom, but fails to show what Turks could have done in dire situations.

Ataturk was just a catalyst for Turkish identity, enlightenment and their freedom. If he never existed, Turks would have chosen another leader for them. Whatever today's situation is, there will be no way anyone to put Turks in a cage. History always repeats itself.
