You don't have to be a fan of horses or horse races to enjoy this movie. It is a story revolving around Bold Pilot, a real life race horse which was very popular in 1990's Turkey. In fact, it can really be very successful abroad, if a good advertising campaign is carried out, at least in countries where Turkish TV serials are already popular. "Champion" is tour de force for Turkish film industry and it deserves international recognition. It keeps you occupied another 2 hours after you leave the movie theater. It is full of emotion getting hold of you all through the movie so much so that you hardly realize when it comes to an end. "To be champion means to keep running even when you know that you will lose someday." One of the best Turkish movies of all time, one of the best movies of last decade in the whole world.
