Filinta

I have never watched anything better or similar to this... It's captured my imagination and attention like nothing else I don't speak Turkish although I am a true student of world history and cultures and the Ottoman slant to this has totally mesmerised me. Compelling and emotional Complex and so non-formulaic in the US or UK style. I didn't know I was starting on what is Turkey's finest TV series It deserves all my attention and heart. 9 out of 10 stars

Astonishing

Unfortunately I don't speak or understand a word of the Turkish language so I am at a disadvantage waiting for the series to be interpreted. So many Turkish films I have left Netflix a message to get the next series.

The writers and producers and the actors are superb in Filinta. I smiled, laughed, cried during the entire 2 seasons.

I'm waiting for season 3. Looking so forward to it.

Despite of not understanding a single word from the Turkish language, my entire family from 8 year old till my father 77 years old watches this on Netflix with great passion. After watching one episode by mistake, we now don't watch anything else on TV. Amazing cast, direction & story on this master piece. Love it!!

Basically, Murdoch goes to Istanbul but with fewer forensics and a LOT more "acupuncture." The first season is an entertaining romp, but season 2 is starting to "lose it." Reminds me of how much fun the first Pirates of the Caribbean was, but then the franchise started to get mired down in cliches and poor plot development. This group of assassins they created, training with Greco-Roman weapons and funky haircuts, looks too much like Conan the Barbarian or a B-grade video game. We are fast-forwarding episodes now in Netflix, something we never did in Season 1. Not sure if season 2 can keep my interest through another 70 episodes. My rating is for Season 1 only.

I've watched 40 episodes of this series..Filinta Also Ertugrul Reformation (great) 170 episodes Also Magnificen Century 100 episodes (good)

The main distraction in all these drama's is the BURNING oil lanterns.. How did they keep the fires going I never see any attendance,

Addicted to Turkish drama....Love the horse scenes Robin Morton ,...Kila,MT 2018
