Hindsight misuse (and likely wrong-way hindsight, but the example makes it hard to tell).


* HilariousInHindsight:
** A Turkish 8th grade science textbook ended up unironically citing Fire, Earth, Water and Wood as the FourElementEnsemble, just like Arif did in the film.

Space Whale Aesop is not YMMV and Unfortunate Implications require a citation from a credible source


* SpaceWhaleAesop: "Aliens can be humane, too." Arif tells "Hollywood" to stop using AliensAreBastards in its stories, even though the trope was long [[DiscreditedTrope discredited]] before the film was even released.
* UnfortunateImplications: The film features homosexuality in an almost-overwhelmingly bad light, from Logar's DepravedHomosexual tendencies to TheHero escaping from PrisonRape by an American inmate.


* CompleteMonster: Commander Logar and his Mooks [[spoiler:destroy the shanty town the protagonists were previously in after summarily executing some of its inhabitants.]]

* ClicheStorm: The plot meets most of the criteria for a SpaceOpera.

** A Turkish 8th grade science textbook ended up unironically citing Fire, Earth, Water and Wood as the FourElementEnsemble, just like Arif did in the film.
* OneSceneWonder: Bob Marley Faruk's flashback to 1980 when he tried to propose a ScienceFiction script to a 1980s erotica director (also played by Yilmaz), only for the latter to get arrested by the ruling military junta for owning imported cigarettes. The latter character is featured in a supporting role in the sequel ''Arif v. 2016 (2018)''.
* ShallowParody: Some reviews consider this to be one, criticizing the lack of subtlety when parodying Science Fiction/Hollywood tropes.
* VisualEffectsOfAwesome: The movie's computer-generated special effects were praised by domestic and foreign reviewers in comparison to previous Turkish ScienceFiction entries.
