The Protector

Loved 1st season, story, acting, dubbing, and directing. But the 2nd season directing I think was the let down. Enjoyed the story. And I agree, was much better than Iron Fist.

Exiting adventure in istanbul. english subs could be better (english). one remark though: i'm halfway the 2nd season and still the only thing the protector is protecting is his own self-interest including his girlfriends. must be something turkish...

I am glad to see something new coming from the world of Turkish cinematography. The show is far from perfect, there are holes in the storyline, and the dialogue seemed sometimes really shallow and unrealistic that it made me chuckle on few ocassions. When it comes to acting, the character of Hakan was quite belivable, and the rest of the cast was quite solid. You can see that the team really wanted to show the beauty of modern day Istanbul with glorius Ottoman history. And this is what makes the show special to western audiance, as this is the world we don't know that much about. All in all, there is definitely room for improvement, however I aplaud the attempt to push outside of the box when it comes to Turkish production.

I must honestly say that it's way better than i expected. I was thinking that it would be a doll movie that drools. However it is totally opposite! Sparkling and it's a big leap!

The series was very good. However, I think they would´ve done a great 5th season if Hakan would have turned an evil immortal as Faysal as a cliffhanger and then, on the 5th. season, Zeynep could have help him turning him back to good and then kill Faysal. The missed the chance for a great 5th season.
