This flick is the one of the most distinguished and independent productions of the Turkish movie industry (Yesilcam). Rude street slang can be very usual for American or French movies but it is usually very unacceptable for Turkish films. This kind of films are hard to be shown widely in domestic halls and on TV it is even more impossible. But "Gemide" breaks this barrier and honestly reflects the street language, lifestyle and people of big cities in Turkey.
Most people see this one as a Tarantino-esque Turkish movie. This is quite a big claim, but is inevitable that an ambiance in dialogues exists like Tarantino style. Although the dialogues are funny, they are also so explicit that slap on some viewers' face! They are just like the normal people's speech.
Of course it is not only the speech makes this film fine. Chosen places also affect the audience. We feel like a crew memeber on board and hearing the captain's yells! The acting is perfect, all the cast is fluent and good, but Erkan Can (the captain) is awesome! Also one interesting thing in the movie is that the prostitute has no cues. The movie goes on only at the aspect of men.
Most parts may be difficult to comprehend for non Turkish speakers and the audio recording is not brilliant, but "Gemide" must be seen by foreigners especially!
