Hot Skull

It has many similarities from many other series, such as: stranger things, dark, matrix, you etc...

It started with a curiosity but cannot keep that momentum all the way to the end. There is no surprise on any of the episode except that one scene.

Sometimes main character behaved like a really childish, selfish but without any good valid background, therefore you cannot make the connection with him.

Topic is okeyish, but could be way better with a little bit intelligence. It turned out a classic Turkish series, which has long lasting dialogs without any meaning, very very slow scenes, meaningless moments. Especially i really looked for a 2x or 3x fast forward option on Netflix to be able watch it.

The series is adopted from a Turkish novel written by Afsin Kum, published in 2016, which I was not aware of it before watching the series. I finished the first season 15 minutes ago, and really enjoyed watching it. It needs a lot of thinking, sense of humor and open minds. I admired the "abuks" and congratulate the writers.

All the characters, acting and directing are incredible. The story takes place in Istanbul. There is an outbreak going on which spreads by hearing nonsense talking of affected people. The main character the hot skull, is the only immune person who is a linguistic scientist, but has a side affect of the immune response.

Hope to see the second season soon.

It was a very successful production for Türkiye, especially in the science-fiction genre.

The actors and script are pretty good.

We should all make useful comments to pave the way for such quality productions.

The cooperation between Neftlix and Türkiye will become stronger day by day.

It was a successful production about a mass epidemic that started in Turkey and what would happen next.

While I am used to seeing similar original science-fiction works as a work done by different countries, I was very happy that Türkiye signed such an original work.

I would like to humbly invite those who want to watch this series to watch this successful series without giving spoilers.

All my best wishes, Enjoy watching!

The story and performances were good, some parts were slowed down and some parts could be elaborated more, but overall it was quite good, cinematically. The ideas were captivating with all the visual compositions. I think it was unique in that way.

The most satisfying part of the series was the criticism on politics and the autocratic system, I really enjoyed it.

Downside was the character development, they were not so deep, especially the main characters could have more depth. My favorite character was Ozgur.

In short, the series are worthy of watching, it is not a simple action series, it gives you more than that.

Well-fictioned scenario making the audience curious and waiting for the next episode. After two years with the pandemic, it forces us empathize and question our own world. Stunning acting from Turkish movie and theater industry.

Moreover, the fact that the book inspired by the script was written 3 years before the script was written is another factor that makes this fiction interesting.

Considering the low budgets that nerflix allocates to European productions, it should not be compared to Hollywood productions.

However, it can be said that 7 different local Turkish animation companies and more than 100 graphic-designers work meticulously and it is a good job worth watching.
