Jemima It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

HalilKose After performing successfully Huseyin Badem character, a naive Thracian boy, from 'Eyyvah Eyvah', Ata Demirer this time endeavored to create a character much more formidable to perform; a middle-aged boxer Ayhan Kaplan who is one of the third generation descendants of Turks in Germany. It is well-known fact that with cultural degeneration and cultural shock the third generation descendants of Turks in Germany now form an exotic conception of the world; a crossbreed culture seems weird to Germans as wells as to Turks. Movie is prospering to identify this matter of fact, critical on it, illustrates even what kind of cheap quips sounds funny for them. Ata is also prospering with characterization of Ayhan Kaplan who belongs to this crossbreed culture;however the achievement of movie is limited just with these.Storyline has a scratchy concept, seems the movie remains one of the cheap BKM works; I say this because it is so noticeable that many scenes are just constrained, to illustrate writer made an effort to add romanticism into storyline, it must be the reason that mere comedy contingents upon cultural differences and accent with a cheap dram not found adequate by the writer and felt obligated for romance in storyline that's why love scenes that generated by necessity appears rubbishy.Yet another problem is conspicuous with inferiority of dramatic scenes; nevertheless being a comedy movie, some drama is inserted; especially recognizable during remonstrance of brother in law and discomfortingly wimpy.Then again, I could not comprehend how the final competition suddenly turns into a national match announced as national pride, plus Kaplan gets strength in a while from his nephew, without any logical explanation.

mkaral Ata Demirer, renowned Turkish stand-up comedian and artist, came up with an interesting project; humbly translated as "Tiger of Berlin". It is the naive story of a 2nd (maybe 3rd?) generation Turkish guest worker in Germany, who has opted a boxing career over everything else. At first glance, it is a simple comedy drama setup between Berlin-Turkey. Nonetheless, Ata's nearly perfect representation of a Germanized-Turkish character (or vice versa), gives the movie its distinguished character. Anybody who spent some time with Turkish-Germans will smile, when they hear expressions such as "I looked a movie" instead of "I watched a movie", or "I wrote an exam" instead of "I take an exam" The script is simple, but intact. Characters are shallow, but carefully developed and acted. Story does not offer to many surprises, but it is absolutely funny. Unfortunately, the movie has not too much to offer for non-Turkish speakers, as well as for those who never had a German-Turkish friend. After all, it is probably the best movie Ata has ever made.
