Adim Farah

The series will not be a copy of American or Argentinian series. It will have common elements, but it will be a completely different story. The first episode was excellent. The main theme is taken to another level, one that neither the Americans nor the Argentinians have reached in their versions. A strong cast, and a very well developed script. Engin Akyurek and Demet Ozdemir have an electrifying harmony. Little Rastin Paknahad is far beyond what we have seen in previous versions. It is a great injustice to say that this series is a copy of a version previously made by others...only if you are too stupid to admit it. Watch it and you won't regret it!

When a series leaves me wanting to keep watching the second episode right away then it's the right one! This is the case with Adim Farah! From the very first scenes he glued me to the screen with an ever increasing rhythm parallel to moments of great intimacy, all reinforced by the great skill and credibility of the leading actors such as Engin Akyurek (Tahir), Demet Ozdemir (Farah), FIrat Tanis (Mehmet) and little Rastin Paknahad (Kerim) who managed to get into the characters and the story so well that I reached the end of the episode, after 2 hours, without realizing it and exclaiming "already finished!!!" I don't know the story well, except in broad terms, of the series from which this remake is based, but I don't care much in the end because I liked what I saw last night, and a lot!

The cast, the screenplay, the direction, the editing, the photography and last but not least the soundtrack are perfect... in short, a great product.

I hope it's just the beginning of a long exciting journey... I rarely find series that leave me with that eagerness to see the next episode and in this case I can't wait for next Wednesday!

I read this is an adaptation of another series called The Cleaning Lady but I've not watched that series before. So, I'm watching this with minimal spoilers. The main cast characters keep me watching this series. Demet as Farah is perfect and she plays her role very well. As a viewer, I feel her emotions and desperation. Engin as Tahir fits perfectly too. He comes across as a hardened killer and his looks and attire is exactly the part. Yet he is kind and lonely and portrays it well in those short moments. The child actor playing Kerimshah is an absolute delight. His huge eyes are very expressive. His smile lights up the screen. There's 2 issues I have with this series from episode 1 to 3 (only 3 episodes released to-date). It's a bit slow paced at some instances that I find myself multi-tasking as I watch. Secondly, the twists and turns in the story can be predictable. I was on spot in predicting some of the developments in the 3 episodes. Now I'm thinking whether my prediction on Kerimshah's father would be correct. All in all, a very watchable series.

Season 2 (boring and non-sense) -- 2/10.

Writers are confused about what scenario to write. They just write scenario for 2+ hours waste of time. Simply no interesting story to tell in season 2. Very liked actors, but very poor story, it lacks substance!

Season 1 -- 8/10 Forget about the series 'The Cleaning Lady' and don't compare to it when writing reviews. It's like comparing apples and oranges. You got to pretend you have not seen series 'The Cleaning Lady' otherwise you may not like the series 'Adim Farah.'

Good combination of actors -- Demet, Engin, and Firat. Demet does it again with her real superb acting no matter what role she plays. Engin and Firat acting are wonderful and real especially Firat. The series at times is exciting and suspenseful.

Finally last night I saw the first episode.

I personally think that Adim Farah is an excellent product, from every point of view.

Wise remake, built with grace and intelligence.

Convincing, often superlative acting, by each actor, starting with the protagonists Demet Özdemir (Farah) and Engin Akyürek (Tahir), without forgetting Firat Tanis (Mehmet).

Congratulations to whoever took care of the casting.

Direction, screenplay, scenography, music, editing are simply perfect.

The rhythm leaves no room for a single breath and you are not bored even for a moment.

When the episode ends, you want to start watching it again!

I hope it goes on keeping the same level!
