I found the film tragicomic and watched it (especially the last 20 minutes) in tears instead of cheer.
Though the themes such as how the political correctness shows itself in the secular Turkish society and how the youth coming from different intellectual and sociological background deal with the moral issues were worked out with humor, that did not suffice to overcome the despair of the upper class family overall. The discontent of the family, who is throwing the party, has never been resolved from the beginning to the end.
Overall the aim of the film of giving hope and joy regarding of the name "new year's eve" has not been achieved.

Tragicomic
Amazing
This Gulse Birsen movie is one of the best movies ever. There was "Aile Arasinda" movie Which was also written by Gulse Birsen. That movie was also very good.
I dont want to tell details about the movie but i love all characters. It is very very comic, funny, sometimes sarcastic, sometimes ironic. I watched it 4 times already and each time i saw other details. There are so many funny details in the movie. I highly advice people to watch it. Since it is in turkish, i am not sure How it will be in English but it definetely worths to watch it even in English as well.
Congradulations to all actors and actresses and Gulse Birsen.
Warm Movie with Perfect Cast
Haters are gonna hate...
Gulse Birsel has a different path when compared with the other writers, she is a good observer and knows how to reflect Turkish streotypes to the movie. Yilbasi Gecesi (New Year's Eve) is perfect example which contains different characters from different cultures in Turkey.
I laughed a lot and additonally I felt a lot. Please ignore the haters and trolls. Even If you do not have sense of humour, the movie is still worth watching. Conflicts, dialoges, metamorphosis... All is awesome, I love this movie a lot like all other Gulse's works. If you like this movie, you can also love aile arasinda as well.
