Sakar Sakir – 8/10 Director: Natuk Baytan Cast: Kemal Sunal EN: This is my eighth Kemal Sunal film in a row. It can be considered similar to Avanak Apti. Once again, it ends with a happy resolution. There are familiar actors, familiar scenes, and familiar lines. The same absurd structure continues, yet it still works and remains watchable. 8/10. Since it was made before 1980, it carries much less emotional weight. #SakarSakir #KemalSunal #NatukBaytan #Yesilcam #1970s #AbsurdComedy #HappyEnding #Nostalgia
