Como vuela el cuervo

The script is really bad, after the first episode it has nothing to do with reality.

The first problem is that the main character goes and talks to everyone, lies to everyone and no one asks his friend why he did this or why he did it.

The second problem is they use today's technology but never use technology when they need to control who is lying or who is doing it.

I was waiting series with Birce Akalay and Ibrahim Celikkol for so long. 10 points goes to actors but series is not good at all. Sorry.

Very predictable plot...

I haven't seen this coming. Surprisingly good! The series shows the battle between a crow (figurative) and a lion (fig.), high society and poor people, someone who reached everything in life and someone who wants to reach everything in life. A clash of generations. It has a beautiful and artistic cinematography, gorgeous casting and amazing soundtrack. The music adds so much tension to the story, it really catches the attention. This is a high quality production and you can see, hear and feel it. The only weak point is the script, but this is a Netflix production. Nowadays, most of Netflix Originals has problems with their script. It is nothing special for this series. Bearing this in mind, As The Crow Flies brings a high quality drama with gorgeous talents and an overwhelming soundtrack to the streaming platform.

This series was wonderful and terrible at the same time. I love both Birce Akalay and Ibrahim Celikkol and was happy to see them reunited in a series (I really enjoyed them paired together in Siyah Beyaz Ask-which was one of the first Turkish series I ever watched...as such it occupies a special place in my heart.).

This series is wonderfully narrated and pits a team of gen Xers who are at the top of their game in the tv news media reporting (serious journalism)(the lions) vs a up and coming millennial (the bird aka kus) who hasn't even finished her education...in other words no experience.

Lale Kiran is a well respected on camera journalist and she made her way up the ranks by working in Ankara and Afghanistan, aka she worked hard, gained knowledge and earned her position and the respect she is given. She is supported by her husband Sinan a successful restauranteur, two daughters, and her long time partner and friend Kenan. Asli Tuna is an entitled little millennial who thinks that in spite of not having the knowledge or experience that she deserves Lale's job and there is just about nothing she isn't willing to do to get it...lie, cheat, steal, blackmail, manipulate (verbally and sexually), back-stab (figuratively and literally) and maybe even kill. She weaponizes social media in ways to help her advance and to take down others...thus showing some of the dangers of social media today.

This was a big production made for Netflix Turkish series and it really showed: lavish sets, good soundtrack, great costuming and wonderful acting. I found the series wonderfully done, but difficult to watch because it hit a little too close to home for me and I work in health care in a hospital setting. I too am seeing entitled millennials think that they deserve positions that they haven't the experience to do and the bad behavior that ensues when they don't get their way. I am really saddened and worried about what is going to happen when these individuals are reporting the news and providing health care to others when they no longer have ethics, lack the knowledge and have cut corners to get where they are.

The ending of season one was quasi satisfying in that I was glad to see respect given to someone who had earned it, I was glad to see some of the young generation questioning the ethics of reporting fake news and I was glad to see the pool get good use. I personally would have been a lot happier with the ending if we got to watch a bird get a horribly violent comeuppance. Oh well, I guess the ending was alright.

All the negative reviews are "busbus".

Great cast and likable series. Nice and pleasant to watch. The music and songs are nicely chosen for this series. More time should have been invested on the script make it suspenseful and exciting.
