Storyline
In 1453, the Byzantine capital of Constantinople is surrounded by Ottoman Turks. The city is but a shadow of its former glory due to the empire's ever receding coffers, while the Ottoman Empire continues to grow rich. After years of tolerating the existance of Byzantium, the ambitious sultan, Mehmet II launches his campaign to end the Byzantine Empire and take Constantinople for the Ottomans, resulting in arguably the greatest siege of that age.

User Review

Best of Best..

Rating: 10/10


When I saw some of comments I noticed that our people don't know how to

admire. Just forget about some mistakes in the movie.Even in Hollywood

movies you can see significant mistakes but no one of you criticize

it.However, when it comes to criticize our own movie, most of people
rant

about it, even write atrociously comments. Maybe you are right its not

the best movie,there are some mistakes but this movie is just beginning
for

Turkish cinema culture.It'll be better in time just be patient.Enjoy

yourselves..
