Lately I have discovered that watching foreign films with subtitles has given me the opportunity to enjoy some above average cinematic entertainment. This is one of the best movies I have ever watched. I was totally captivated from beginning to end.

I was only into this movie (Netflix) about 15 minutes when I realized I was watching a masterpiece. There was only one swear word in the whole movie with no nudity. So tasteful and refreshing. There is some violence, but not gratuitous,and only in part of the movie. Don't let the opening scene shock you away. This movie has a beautiful and uplifting ending. Kudos to the director and production team. They deserve it. I would never have thought I would love a movie made in of all places, Turkey!

I watched this movie last night. All I can say is I am still thinking about it. It is unforgettable. Acting is beyond superb. The chemistry between the main characters is simply incredible. Not to be missed.

I am also relieved that it was a happy ending. I could not have survived another ending like "A girl named Feriha" although that was also a fantastic series.

World needs more of such movies these days.

In my opinion this is a great film essencially due to the chemistry and cumplicity of the main role actors performed by Bilgin & Celikkol. The role of Hazal is brilliant, she really worked seriously on the blindness and consequently drama of the character. Ali (played) by I. Celikkol interacts amazingly with Hazal, his performance is incredible, not only because of his looks but also showing us a very good looking man can be an excellent actor. Surely all fans of this actors couple would love to see them much more often together on screen. They are just perfect together!

My soul fluttered, my eyes teared, and this movie lit up corners of my heart that had gone dark with doubt and disappointment. One could only HOPE to feel a love like theirs.

I am totally won over by this wonderful film. The two lead actors are so special - what a chemistry there is between them (I also fell for them in Kordugum TV series until the writers did their worst!). The writing arc hit the spot. We are in the present, prosaically at the start, then slowly the layers of back-story are revealed. Is Turkish cinematography noticeably one of its great strengths? The TV series above I viewed after this masterful production seems to confirm that.

One issue I would take up with one of the reviewers, is the opinion that 'coincidences' were contrived; I don't agree. It could be expected that that ending sequence would quite logically happen. Normal? - not contrived soapiness!

No, I haven't seen the Korean version. I would suggest that some of 'boxer' scenes in mid-film are rather unpleasant, although integral and of kay importance. Eyes shut for me!
