Reception

With "confused and primitive" editing, acting described as robotic, and an "unfathomable" screenplay, one reviewer described it as being not even worthy of belonging to the genre of film propaganda like Triumph of the Will.[1][2]

Shortly after its February 2015 release, the movie ranked at the bottom of IMDb's Bottom 100 list, with an average score of 1.0 (lowest possible) from more than 5,000 users.[3][4] Its rating subsequently slightly increased, though it remains near the top of the same list as of 2020. For its cinematic release in Turkey, despite being of minority interest, the film was distributed to 850 cinemas, resulting in several mainstream movies missing their release dates. Today's Zaman speculated that this was because cinema owners considered that the Turkish authorities expected its screening to be mandatory.[2] Because of the lack of interest from movie-goers, several cinemas ended up showing it for free.[5]

gollark: Hmmmm... no.
gollark: There is much more detailing its many problems.
gollark: That's just a sort of preambley bit.
gollark: ```I can’t even say what’s wrong with PHP, because— okay. Imagine youhave uh, a toolbox. A set of tools. Looks okay, standard stuff inthere.You pull out a screwdriver, and you see it’s one of those weirdtri-headed things. Okay, well, that’s not very useful to you, butyou guess it comes in handy sometimes.You pull out the hammer, but to your dismay, it has the claw part onboth sides. Still serviceable though, I mean, you can hit nails withthe middle of the head holding it sideways.You pull out the pliers, but they don’t have those serratedsurfaces; it’s flat and smooth. That’s less useful, but it stillturns bolts well enough, so whatever.And on you go. Everything in the box is kind of weird and quirky,but maybe not enough to make it completely worthless. And there’s noclear problem with the set as a whole; it still has all the tools.Now imagine you meet millions of carpenters using this toolbox whotell you “well hey what’s the problem with these tools? They’re allI’ve ever used and they work fine!” And the carpenters show you thehouses they’ve built, where every room is a pentagon and the roof isupside-down. And you knock on the front door and it just collapsesinwards and they all yell at you for breaking their door.That’s what’s wrong with PHP.```From the fractal of bad design article.
