This week in theaters

14 November 2009 / ,
‘The Tournament’ The Tournament is a battle among 30 of the world’s deadliest assassins that takes place every seven years in an unsuspecting town.

The last man standing receives a $10,000,000 cash prize and the title of world’s No. 1 assassin (which itself carries a legendary million-dollar-a-bullet price tag). The Tournament is set up by a group of sick billionaires who watch the mayhem unfold via CCTV and bet on its outcome. Each of the assassins carries a tracking device embedded under their skin, allowing the observers to monitor the tournament and the assassins to track each other. The tournament lasts for 24 hours, and if no assassin has won, then the tracking device under their skin will explode. When a French assassin removes his tracker and throws it into a coffee pot, a local priest (Robert Carlyle) who inadvertently swallows it is caught in the crossfire.

One day in the lives of three young men from the same neighborhood in İzmir’s Bornova district. Hakan (Öner Erkan) is a young man who spends his entire day in front of the neighborhood’s grocery shop with Salih (Kadir Çermik), thinking, “If we were just given the chance…” Salih, the neighborhood’s psychopathic rogue, is like an older brother to Hakan, who has just returned home after completing his mandatory military service. Hakan does not have a job, but he plans to become a taxi driver to be able to realize all he wants in this life: to earn just enough money to be able to decently look after a small family and to marry the girl he secretly adores. Salih is the only person who listens to Hakan and gives him advice. Although Salih has grown up in a respectable, educated family, he’s involved in every kind of illegal business in the neighborhood. Everybody in the neighborhood is scared of him, including high school student Özlem (Damla Sönmez). Hakan is crazy about Özlem, but he never had the courage to talk to her in person. In the meantime, Murat (Erkan Bektaş), Salih’s childhood friend and a doctoral student in philosophy, makes a living through writing erotic fantasies. He tells Hakan about an erotic fantasy that he wrote based on an event involving Salih and Özlem. Disappointed and confused, Hakan heads toward Özlem’s house to learn about the whole thing.
