Dennis Harvey Variety This latest effort from Turkish writer-helmer Tolga Karacelik is intriguing enough, but slow-moving and insufficiently atmospheric to stir as much mystery or tension as it should. Dec 7, 2015 Full Review Boyd van Hoeij Hollywood Reporter Though undeniably well acted by the small but impressive cast, there's a sense that we've seen all this before. Dec 7, 2015 Full Review Anton Bitel Sight & Sound this devilishly tense, increasingly hallucinatory thriller uses a vessel stalled at sea as a vivid allegory for a world on credit and in economic meltdown, with nobody truly responsible at the helm. Jul 3, 2015 Full Review Allie Gemmill CineVue This is a brilliant piece of filmmaking: quiet in tone but deeply unsettling and entirely engrossing. Rated: 4/5 Apr 5, 2019 Full Review Emine Yildirim Today's Zaman (Turkey) The awe-inspiring Nadir Sarıbacak... has become the go-to guy for Turkish art-house films. Mar 1, 2016 Full Review Adrian Mack Georgia Straight [An] offbeat and unforgettable political allegory. Dec 7, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member A full ship crew get's their situation flipped when the company owning the ship goes bankrupt. The captain and five others must stay on the ship to obey some sort of rules, but the rest of the crew is put ashore. They smoke some, they drink, they work a bit to make the days go by as they wait for their payroll and their lives on solid ground. Well, they must wait for quite long. I like the characters a lot. The acting is solid and I dig the captain, the mysterious giant of a man and the crooked one with the eye. The word slinging at battles, the conflicts, the fun. I like every bit of it. Another cool thing is the development. It's actually turning into some short of mystery, a quite thrilling one. It's perfectly trippy at times and the song you hear once or twice is very cool. Likeable film and a fresh breath of movie-air by the promising, Turkish director Tolga Karaçelik. 7.5 out of 10 snails. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
