The Club

Kulup aka The Club is an amazing all star cast new Turkish show on Netflix set in the 1950s of Istanbul. It's very well acted, good script, good storyline. Salih Bademici can SING! I was blown away by his voice, amazing! It's a very nice story of a mother trying to connect with her daughter after 17 years after being in prison.

I think people should watch the show with an open mind and just enjoy the show, the story, and the breath taking performances from the actors and actresses. Ignore the negative reviews.

I decided to write this because of a huge misunderstanding. The show did not end but at halt till december. There are 4 more episodes. And about show, the actors were outstanding. The acting was really great but also the visualization of the era was also great. I usually don't watch Turkish dramas but this was a hit and I'm planning to recommend it to my friends from other countries.

It reflects the Istanbul of the 1950s very well. Its cosmopolitan but out of touch.

Costumes and scenery are very well done.

And it showed some events that are usualy not talked about. There are some historical inaccuracies but its worth watching.

I loved everything about This show.

Great history lesson! Ethnic diversity is such a big part of Istanbul and Turkey afcourse.

To bad things happened the way they did.

The turkisch spoken with al the (for me) old and unfamiliar words...great.

I hope there will be alot more episodes of this show I cant wait.

This series deserves to be watched, do not skip it. Actors,music,costumes ,storyline are excellent. Maybe there are some inaccuracies but it shows the beautiful time of Istanbul ,where a lot of ethnicities were living together peacefully and what exactly happened because of desire for money and power. As a greek with greek relatives who were raped and killed then i did not expect to watch a turkish production showing some true events. Bravo for that. It is better to accept our wrongs,say sorry and move on. I think some bad reviews are from turkish people who did not like to watch what happened to other people with other religion at that times. The main point of the film is not to show the turkish as villains but to show that the different cultures can exist together peacefully when everything is innocent and when there are open minded people. As for the role of Ismet,it reminded me that this film portrays good the fact that turkish men love many times girls from other ethnicities but at last marry turkish girls because of what the society or family will think.
