Esref Rüya

Esref Rüya is a masterpiece and masterful blend of intense drama, deep emotions, and gripping storytelling, capturing the essence of love, ambition, and the struggle between fate and choice. With its stellar cast, breathtaking cinematography, and the plot is on point, it stands as a testament to the brilliance of Turkish television. The chemistry between Çagatay Ulusoy and Demet Özdemir is electrifying, and breath taking. From its richly developed characters to its hauntingly beautiful soundtrack. I can't get it out of my mind I'm obsessed .This series is perfection I highly recommend you to watch it.

I liked the beginning of "Esref Ruya". There are quite a few storylines that could develop.

I really like the way the narrator works.

He is the one who knows everything about Eshref, his thoughts, motives, knows about events that he was not even a direct witness to. This gives a lot of freedom in the storytelling because it allows us to learn things that would otherwise remain hidden.

Excellent cinematography!

Characters like Esref have some inexplicable appeal-not just because they look strong, but because they exude control, mystery, and self-assurance.

And Cagatay Ulusoy is perfect for this role of a mysterious, domineering man who seems to hold the fate of others in his hands, but cannot control his own.

I hope it continues in the same style. Let's listen to the person telling the story because it adds an emotional layer to the story.

He can make observations and comments that make us look at things from a different perspective.

I haven't written a review in years! This has turned out to be one of the best series out right now. It started out slow but has built up to a superbly written and acted series!

Its a very unique plotline. There's no emasculated men bullied by bitter mother/grandmother, no weak female victims getting slapped around, there are multiple villains who are psycho, but the chess moves of the tribe/mafia families, psycho exes, the "good" bad guys, and the bad bad guys has me anticipating every Wednesday night! Great series!

Cagatay and Demet are masters of their craft!

I love the supporting cast as well. Superb writing! Love this series!

51 comments after just 5 episodes??

Why is everything about this series so strange? Why are the ratings either 1 or 10? It feels like there's some bias involved and some people are intentionally giving it a 1-star rating. Even the worst Turkish films and series didn't get so many 1-star ratings after just 5 episodes like this one has.

Please stop this nonsense.

This series has been truly decent for just five episodes, and it probably hasn't even covered 10% of its story yet. How can you judge it so easily?

The directing and cinematography are way above the standard level of Turkish productions.

The acting is outstanding, especially Eshref's character, which suits Cagatay perfectly.

Honestly, it feels like you're criticizing this series out of spite.

All the accounts that gave this series a low rating or a 1 were created in April 2025. Isn't that a bit suspicious?

It is a pleasure to follow Demet Özdemir's projects. Each of her characters is different, never the same, this time in the role of a singer, a cheerful woman with a child's soul who tries to achieve her ideals. The character is perfect for Demet, they are similar, she is a person with a special soul beauty. Demet's acting is remarkable, she easily switches from comedy to drama, now we smile at her lines, then, in a few minutes we feel her feelings, fear, despair, pain.. Nisan wakes up between two evils, a policewoman obsessed with an unrequited love, who uses it to take revenge and the mafia world, where she meets Esref, who is looking for his lost love from childhood. We witness an impressive love story, reminiscent of the Hollywood atmosphere of the 60s, the cast, direction, script, music, decor, filming, are of quality. The series is worth watching, a thriller, about human relationships, love, loyalty, betrayal,
