Wow
No one else liked this film. Maybe I was having a dream, and never actually watched it?

first of all I AM VERY SORRY BUT;
Mr. STEVEN SEAGAL, HIS STAFF, HIS DIRECTOR, HIS WRITERS, HIS PRODUCERS DOESN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT TURKEY & TURKISH PEOPLE. THEY COULD AT LEAST MADE A RESEARCH ABOUT TURKEY !!!
TURKEY IS OF THE MODERN COUNTRY IS LIKE THE OTHER EUROPEAN COUNTRIES. JUST A LITTLE DETAIL, TURKISH PEOPLE DON'T USE "FES=it is kind of old still hat", IF THEY HAD A LITTLE RESEARCH THEY COULD HAVE LEARN VERY EASILY !!!
1. Yes Steven lost a lot of weight , I liked this.
2. Yes I liked his costumes
3. I like Matt Schulze especially he is very good player in my opinion.
4. I waited a lot of fight scenes and it was a few !!
5. Yes different story I liked !!!
But generally I am sorry but I was dissapointed this time. I was expecting this better than Belly Of The Beast but it wasn't.
My favorite movie is still "Belly Of The Beast" !!!

Serena said:That's too bad about the incorrect Turkish references, Suzi. Maybe that has something to do with why you didn't like it, since you did like so many other things about it, as you listed #1-5. You didn't mention what you didn't like, Suzi. Anything in particular?
Belly of the Beast was one I also enjoyed.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Suzi.
Reservoir Dog said:Serena, when can we expect a review from you?
suziwong said:Serena,

I BELIEVE RUMORS ARE CORRECT MR.SEAGAL DOESN'T LIKE TURKEY & TURKISH PEOPLE !!!!
sincerely

Reservoir Dog said:I am sure Steven Seagal has no prejudiced towards the Turkish People, suzi. Remember, the majority of the film was filmed in POLAND, not Turkey, so maybe they just didnt have time to get their facts straight.
Reservoir Dog said:The fez hat was intended for a bit of comic relief (although I didnt really laugh too much) What else was inaccurate about the Turkish culture?
TDWoj said:Suzi, my friend, I am so sorry you have been hurt!
Steven was just making a movie (and by the faint praise, not a very good movie at that), not a political statement (at least, I hope he wasn't).
You also have to remember, my sweet Suzi, that Steven doesn't care about his movies any more. Even in the ones he did care about, there were mistakes and wrong facts and stereotypes. I'm sure the Thai people didn't like being portrayed the way they were in Belly of the Beast; the native people didn't like the way they were portrayed in On Deadly Ground; and the people in the southern United States really, really hated being portrayed the way they were in Fire Down Below. Not to mention Italians in Above the Law and Out for Justice; the Jamaicans in Marked for Death; and the Chinese in Out for a Kill.
This time around it was Turkey's turn; and that, I suspect, was because whoever wrote the film didn't bother to do any research to get it right, and with a low budget film, who is going to check the facts?
I'm very sorry that this happened, though; it's wrong, even for a low budget movie, to do something so thoughtless to people in a country that is helping in the international fight against terrorism. And I'm very sorry you are so upset! I think a letter to Mr. Seagal telling him about your distress and your hurt would be a very good idea!
By the way, I had no idea that it was supposed to be Turkey in the film; I thought it was Serbia!
-TD, waiting for her copy, but now not really looking forward to watching it
Reservoir Dog said:It's hard to admit Seagal doesnt care about his fans, but it is probably true. He doesnt show them the respect they deserve by putting out quality movies for them. His official site is obviously not well funded, and he does not take an interest in making it good for his fans. I am angry at him, not for the way he portrayed Turkey, but because he is taking advantage of his fans devotion and exploiting them to make money.
Serena said:Gee, Reservoir Dog. What changed your mind? You just liked it a bit ago, and said so through several different threads. You're entitled to still like it, you know, just because some others didn't. I never, ever let anyone's opinion influence my like or dislike of a movie. They're entitled to theirs, as you are to yours. Their opinion doesn't mean they're right and you're wrong, or vice versa. It's just that, a personal opinion.
