Kurt Seyit ve Sura

So I have just completed the whole series of this amazing story.

My first time to ever sit through a subtitled TV series (46 episodes) but my gosh what a journey it took me on. From that first episode of the ball, it was like a Cinderella setting, the scenes are beautifully set.

At first I must admit I kept saying 'ahhh I wish this was made in English' but you know what I agree with another reviewer in that I believe it would have taken away the essence and passion of how the actors tell the story in their own language and I even started picking up words just learning from this series.

Also my gosh how lovely is the main male character, Hello.... who is this Kivanc Tatlitug and Why don't we know more of him in the western world?

This is why I'm so glad I stumbled across this show on Netflix because it taught me to venture out more and watch more non speaking English movies. All the characters and actors/actresses that played in it did an amazing job. There are a few slow moments in some scenes so You may find you want to fast forward and just to get to the juicy nitty gritty bits but try not to if you can. If you're like me you will go through emotions of frustration, laughter, tears, happiness, sadness. A true love story that goes through so many hurdles and obstacles, jealousy, revenge.

The supporting roles also offer individual depth of again love, patience, family honor, traditions and respect. Money, status and power shows how it can ruin lives but let's not forget the character that ties this altogether....the absolute evil and nasty Petro. As a viewer I must say Bravo to that actor because boy he made me hate him. He portrayed conniving to another level, such a good actor.

I won't spoil the ending but I'm still not sure if I'm happy or sad with how it all played out....I'd say the ending is more realistic however it'll be interesting to know if this ending (as new characters are brought in) was to boost TV ratings as I found the layout and direction towards the end episodes drastically changed.

I'm already researching on the true story of Seyit and Sura just to find out what really did happen between them. Overall, I Hope those watching it enjoy this captivating story and appreciate how beautifully it was made.

overall, the acting the story was ruthlessly realistic and strong, just like the main actor (Seyit). The series played with emotions from happy to sad to extremely shocked it just is truly amazing! It's very rare when a woman loves and appreciates another woman character when she loves the male main character a lot but she is so strong and shows how strong a woman's love it, and how medal through all the hard times with hope and trust.the ending was more realistic than i would have liked it to be. there are also side loves stories that you will love too. Moreover, it portrays what jealousy wit money and connections can do and how it can control someone's life and ruin it. The evil guy (-----) is truly dirty to the core. With this series expect the unexpected!!

Anyways, you will enjoy it, love, and cry a lot (happy and sad tears) !

I found this movie on Netflix by chance Thank you Netflix. It is excellent. I love this move,so captured by the story and especially the main actor Kivanç Tatlitug. He is so handsome and his eyes mesmerize you. Even though I have to watch with closed caption because it is not in English, I cannot stop watching it. I just wish it was in English, although in fact it may lose something. I love these kind of love stories. I wish Kivanc would make some English speaking movies in the U.S. However, I do not like most American movies these days. They are trashy and violent. Not enough true to life wholesome movies that appeal to the romantic. American movies are much too violent, and actors have become so political expressing their political views, I choose not to follow them. They should not bring their personal political rhetoric into the entertainment industry. I will look for more movies like this one.

This has to be one of my all time favorite movies. Yes, I continue to watch it as a movie, absolutely love the music, the actors are perfect for their parts. Tears, smiles, laughter, smirks, all the emotions you want in a drama. The camera angles are so different than we normally see with American films and the way they show the love scenes are just beautiful. I have watched all the episodes a dozen times in the past 3 weeks, know the dialogue by heart. It's a beautiful love story. Can't say enough about it...Just love it. I'm a history buff and this introduced a culture that I am not familiar with and spurred my interest in learning more. I have never been a fan of subtitles, but this is the exception.

I wholeheartedly appreciated this series. What a wonderful, refreshing contrast to Hollywood. It's a love story, but so much more, its a story about war, deep family connections, deception, oppression, unrequited love, also the deep emotional attachment to another person but how the gears can misaligned and the relationship stops working no matter how hard you try. It was brutally realistic and I am emotionally drained after watching the whole series in a week. I was watching it on my phone during breaks at work and anytime I had a few min. The characters were so perfectly cast and beautiful I was hooked in the first episode. It was great that the villain was as handsome as the rest of the cast. As painful as the ending was it couldn't go any other way. That's life. This was my 3rd Turkish series and I love the work they do. No graphic sex scenes not a lot of violence, just very well done. Can we have more please?
