Featured reviews
Like most Turkish series I've watched it was very good with realistically imperfect actors unlike the plastic Hollywood phonies. I actually mean looks wise, no perfect teeth, skin, and most without perfect body images, which seems more important in Hollywood these days than actual acting itself. Most of the actors in different Turkish series are more enjoyable, realistic than Hollywood garbage these days. I'll watch a Turkish series when available anytime.
Nicely filmed, good actors, personality sometimes had hard time to follow the conversation with subtitles and was a bit hard end.
The series is reminiscent of Strike Back and maybe a bit of Band of Brothers. While not on the same level of quality and writing, fans of military action/dramas will find something to like here. The action and cinematography are excellent.
Unfortunately, a few things take the viewer out of the enjoyment. The special effects are poor enough to be occasionally distracting. Dialogue can be extremely cliche and predictable. Certain scenes are over the top and eye roll worthy.
Still, if you can ignore a few tropes, the series is well worth a watch.
Note - always watch in the original dialogue track and not the dubs.

In American because I guess that a thing when It comes to writing about a Turkish production. So yeah whatever that means. Anyway the action scenes are just ok not up to par with six or seal team but the character development although corny some of it was powerful enough to make me tear up. :'/ all and all it was decent worth a watch, high octane with enough melodramatic amber burning yer heart bit by bit.
I respect all the opinion but please be critical instead of giving automatically 9 or 10 stars as a rating! I know this happens often at Turkish films and series but this needs to stopped.
This is not only bad for people who watch it with high expactations but also bad for producers and directors in order to improve the series, because this series is not that good as it claims to be. You're basically smashing your own window!
I noticed that the sound effects were unnatural which really bothered me. The acting was not that bad, but there could have been better actors choosen. Also worth noticing: the episodes takes way too long time and the attention span will only be worse looking at the (predictable) plot.
The first episode didn't gave me the feeling to watch the series further but i believe they can fix it as I see potency.
I was thinking of giving this series a 6 but gave it a 1 because of the exaggerated rating so it can be reduced.
Edit: typo.
