The Last Ottoman: Knockout Ali (Turkish: Son Osmanlı Yandım Ali) is a 2007 Turkish action film, directed by Mustafa Şevki Doğan based on the book by Suat Yalaz, starring Kenan İmirzalıoğlu as the titular hero Tahtacızade "Yandım" Ali, who is inspired by the landing of Mustafa Kemal at Samsun and decides to join the resistance movement fighting against the occupation of Constantinople in the aftermath of the First World War.

Maybe we follow this path because we know the make-up of our people and know there is a majority that likes nationalist films, director Mustafa Şevki Doğan told Reuters.

A navy sergeant named Tahtacızade Ali (Kenan İmirzalıoğlu), who has just completed his military service, is yearning for his fiancée Defne (Cansu Dere) who married another man while Ali was away.

However, Ali's plans change when he comes across Mustafa Kemal, who has just set on a journey to save the Turkish land from the enemy.
