Truly Dreadful Film
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
What a touching film! Beautiful acting and cinematography make this a gem. Slow at times but felt like a timeless classic. Strongly recommended. The Ottoman Lieutenant deserves a 9+ score. I'm Turkish but my family are all Orthodox Christians. So I know both worlds and find this film to be highly accurate. Believe it or not these lands support more religious tolerance than trolls claim. These people have never been here nor took any history courses. They can't even review the film but merely act to defile a work of art.
The movie is ok. Not that good that you would watch it Again and again. However its good enough to kill a couple of hours. What I find interesting is the comments here about how this movie did Not reflect historical facts about WW1. First, This is a movie not a documentary. Second it mostly is based on facts unlike the claims. What people get confused is that it's not based on the Armenian propaganda that the west got used to hearing. While I respect criticism about the movie, I cannot stand people claiming this movie was not based on historical facts like they themselves are experts on Armenian issues or WW1. Protip: Watching Armenian propaganda movies does not make you an expert, leave that to historians!
A colossal bore! Avoid this one for sure. Full of cliches with an extremely boring plot!
Very fake movie trying to clean the killers and make the events look like regular war between two sides
