Critic Reviews
Toss-Up (2004) Review: Two Soldiers, Two Homecomings
★★★½☆
Toss-Up (Yazı Tura) follows two Turkish soldiers who come home wounded from service in the southeast, a bruising, uneven drama about what war leaves behind.
Yes, for viewers drawn to serious Turkish cinema. Its portrait of wounded veterans is powerful, even if the split structure makes it uneven.
