Movie Reviews

The New York Times - 8/10 by A.O. ScottThe film's shapeliness and depth are not immediately apparent; for much of its running time, it feels diffuse and anecdotal, but in retrospect you appreciate the subtlety and heft of the story, as well as the tricky profundity of Mr. Ceylan's approach.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Michael WilmingtonThough it moves more slowly than the tortoise prominently featured in one sequence, Clouds of May is the kind of film that creeps up on the patient viewer.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 6/10 by Dennis SchwartzSensitive realistic portrait of the rural small town natives.
User Review - 10/10 by Joseph Hit is not a movie.. it is something else.
User Review - 10/10 by Private UA very intriguing movie that forms part of the same tale that was utilized in Uzak. I thought that this was a very fascinating study of the common people desperately trying to live their lives and the young desperately trying to flee for their lives. Even the kid is seduced by a simple musical watch and personally, this film had a lot of intrinsic depth that I just found utterly unique in its treatment if not content.
User Review - 6/10 by Panta OPlease read my other reviews of Ceylan's movies, I might write here the same comment... which does't necessarily mean something negative, just his style is very recognisable.
User Review - 6/10 by Sydney Pwhile Nuri Bilge Ceylan is usually at his best 'not talking', this earlier movie of his just talked a bit too much, being a sequel to THE SMALL TOWN and a pre-sequel to DISTANT, the director has always been great at depicting his own family members and other hometown people in all his semi-autographical movies, particularly interesting in this one is the director's tough, energetic father, Emin Ceylan, and the little cousin, Ali, together with the 'director' himself and his other cousin (as played by Muzaffer Ozdemir and Emin Toprak also in THE SMALL TOWN and DISTANT), they represent the different stages and moments of manhood, each with his own concerns, frustrations, adjustments and transitions (25/10/2008)
