OK, we admit, it's not really called Turkish Star Wars. It's actually Dünyayı Kurtaran Adam, or "The Man Who Saved The World". And it doesn't really have that much in common with American Star Wars; it's about a couple of Turks trying to save Earth from a space villain who may or may not have already destroyed Earth, it's not entirely clear. But everyone calls it Turkish Star Wars, probably because it infamously just straight-up uses footage from the original, projecting it behind actors to make them look like they're in space. Actually, it just looks like they're standing in front of a competently-made movie. Even the stuff they steal, like the aforementioned space footage and the Indiana Jones theme, they manage to botch in the editing process. But there's definitely some fun to be had in watching dudes karate-chop the arms off of overgrown muppets, which perhaps explains this film's enduring popularity. You be the judge...or just let us.
