touching movie with authentic atmosphere. not focusing the history, not trying to make propaganda. just telling the naive love story and history is only background. It is not about agony of armenian. so it does not have to tell the issue ortouching movie with authentic atmosphere. not focusing the history, not trying to make propaganda. just telling the naive love story and history is only background.

Ermeni saçmalıklarından sonra sinemaseverlere ilaç gibi gelecek bir film... Gerçi aşk meşk işleri dünyanın en savaşçı ırkı için angaryadır ama olsun, emeklerine sağlık...

Simply beautiful. A must watch. I wonder why the critics hated this movie while users loved it. Curious case. Especially Turkish actor Haluk Bilginer's acting is awesome. I am going to watch more movies of him for sure. Cheers.

Gorgeous acting. Amazing environment. I really have difficulty in understanding armanians why you are approaching a film politically. Stay away from bigot behaviors

Ben Kingsley, Haluk Bilginer, Michiel Huisman, Josh Hartnett and Hera Hilmar that great acting, story and ambiance! You have to watch this movie, if you want historical movies, places and stories.

Art management is great. As a historical movie, It has a very successful interpretation. The orientalist point of view is not on the uncomfortable level. It will be a special place among historical films.

Right actor and actress stand together in this movie. Stay away from non correct reviews. They all are **** Search and learn history. Not from tellings or myths.

A beautiful Story. I liked the romance between main characters and the historical background. To be honest It takes you in to the story.

This film is seriously interesting! The visual effects and scenario are great. There is a scenario that touches the heart of man. I do not agree with negative comments about The Ottoman Lieutenant.

Michiel Huisman has absolutely outdone himself with this film; it had me entranced from the start. Beautifully shot, amazing casting and the time and effort put into the making of this film really shone through. I feel the costumers deserveMichiel Huisman has absolutely outdone himself with this film; it had me entranced from the start. Beautifully shot, amazing casting and the time and effort put into the making of this film really shone through. I feel the costumers deserve an Oscar nomination for this one - everything was spot on which for a period drama is almost impossible:) Flawless casting and great character development leads the viewer through the story; this film will bring out emotions and provoke thought. I loved the perspective of the film; it is an exceptional sensitive retelling of an historical story from both perspectives and I think this is one of the absolute highlights of this film.

See it - you won't be disappointed! Take the tissues though...… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I thought the acting was well done and had a generally good plot. Of course it includes a white woman causing all sorts of situations, resulting in her lover getting killed. But they did a good job.… Expand
