    Chicago Tribune Michael Phillips

    The wondrous cinematography is by Gokhan Tiryaki. It is not an easy picture. Not many masterpieces are.

    Chicago Sun-Times Roger Ebert

    Nuri Bilge Ceylan, one of Turkey's best directors, has a deep understanding of human nature. He loves his characters and empathizes with them. They deserve better than to be shuttled around in a facile plot. They deserve empathy. So do we all.

Once Upon A Time in Anatolia review by zecanorton
Great movie. It's slow, but in the best possible way.

slow and noncompelling by the_movie_mogul
This film did not live up to the critics rating. Unreasonably slow. Not overly compelling. Characters did nothing to pull you in. Nothing brilliant about this film whatsoever.
