A terribly scripted tale of war and love in midst of WW1. The plot is all over the map and there really isn't much of a script. The only thing that keeps ones eyes glued to the screen is the Turkish scenery but it's not something to recommend others to go see. There just isn't much in the dialogue or engagements between actors to keep the audience alive. This is a poor attempt to release a movie just around the time of The Promise which served a better job at portraying a deeply moving time in history, the Armenian Genocide.

The most awful couple of hours of two-dimensional clap-trap I have subjected myself to for several years. Don't waste your time on this drivel. I can't believe Ben Kingsley allowed himself to be duped into this nonsense. Shockingly wooden acting, criminally historically inaccurate, and a script that most ten-year-olds would find insultingly beneath them. This film is a barrage of banality. Awful. Really awful. I'm serious.
