A secret American missile problem lands in a village on Turkey's Black Sea coast in the comedy-adventure Amerikalılar Karadeniz'de 2 (Americans at the Black Sea 2). Kartal Tibet directed it and Kubilay Tunçer wrote the script. Made in 2006, it was shot at Kenda Film studios and released by Energy Media & Productions on January 26, 2007. It was produced by Selay Tozkoparan.

The story begins when one of the missile launchers the US placed on the Black Sea floor to strike Tehran against a possible threat fires after an unexplained blunder. Staff officers alter the smart missile's coordinates and land it unexploded on Turkey's Black Sea shore; all that remains is to retrieve it unnoticed. American agents arrive disguised as tourists, and their mission tangles with village life. Meanwhile the love between headman Salih's (Metin Akpınar) daughter Çiçek (Melis Birkan) and Muzaffer (Kıvanç Tatlıtuğ), home from military service, forms the comedy's second thread. Peker Açıkalın plays Ercüment and Kadir Çöpdemir plays Deli Muhittin; Levent Kazak is agent John, and Müşfik Kenter and Müslüm Gürses also appear. Tatlıtuğ is said to have made his film debut here.

The music is by Fuat Saka, a well-known name in Black Sea music.

Through different eyes

AI-assisted editorial takes written from different viewer perspectives. They are not reader reviews; those are below.

Family Viewer Asks whether the whole household can watch it; cares about humor and heart.

A Black Sea village, a village headman and American agents dressed up as tourists: a story built to make you laugh. Seeing a veteran like Metin Akpınar alongside young actors brings grandparents and teenagers to the same screen. The missile plot may sound scary, but it is all played for comedy. The romance between Muzaffer and Çiçek is a sweet side story. It is not too long, a good length for watching with kids. Little ones may miss some of the jokes, but overall it works as family viewing.

Yeşilçam Nostalgic A viewer raised on the classics, looking for warm storytelling and strong acting.

With Kartal Tibet directing and Metin Akpınar, Müşfik Kenter and Müslüm Gürses in the cast, this is an invitation in itself for anyone who loves classic Turkish comedy. Humor built on a village, its headman and the strangers who arrive draws on the Yeşilçam comedy tradition, and Fuat Saka's music carries the sound of the Black Sea into the film. A premise of missile launchers, agents and a strike aimed at Tehran sits uneasily with the old masters' plain, warm way of telling a story; at times it has the air of a noisy sketch. Being remembered as Kıvanç Tatlıtuğ's first step into cinema gives the film a curiosity of its own.

Action & Thriller Fan Puts pace, tension and set pieces first; little patience for slow drama.

A missile launcher on the Black Sea floor, a smart missile fired by accident, American agents slipping into a village. It is a tailor-made spy-film opening. But here everything serves the comedy; as someone hoping for tension and chases, I wanted more adventure out of that setup. Seeing Levent Kazak as Agent John is fun. It works as a light comedy, not as action.
