Subat

In the reviews someone asked how to watch this with English subtitles. You can watch this with English subtitles thanks to Netflix buddy.

This series is of unexpected quality from a Turkish series. A perfect set of unique characters and legendary scripts awaits you!

I was looking forward to this Turkish remake of the class TV show beauty and the beast I did not know what to expect since the original is almost to copy but so far after watching 13 episodes I can say that it is am interesting remake of course the setting story and characters like the original is very fictional and has nothing to do with reality unlike the original the hero is not a beast but rather a disfigured homeless naive guy living in Istanbul tunnels he is fascinated by a rich TV presenter their meeting starts a chain of unpredictable events

the acting is top notch the guy playing subat is very convincing but maybe a little too good looking to play a creepy man but whats really outstanding about the show is the director I have never seen a TV show with such excellent cinematic direction at least not in Turkish shows

the show does have flows mostly with the writing its sometimes way over the top and sometimes cheesy but so was the original

overall worth checking out by fans of the original

The series is a unique example of the Turkish TV industry. Subat offers a beautiful cinematic experience with over 50 very talented actors and actresses, unforgettable visuals and musical scores. To this date, I'm quite assured that no other Turkish producer and director have been able to achieve such exceptional viewer experience - which makes Subat an absolute benchmark for the upcoming projects. The plot does have sharp and shocking twists and key characters are introduced gradually, which creates continued viewer interest and enthusiasm. Compared to other TV series produced in Turkey, Subat is one of the few that respects the intelligence of the viewer and offers much more than what is presented on the screen if the viewer chooses to analyze the characters and puts the pieces together by himself. I must also add that producing such quality imagery and storyline is not that easy when each episode is approximately 100 minutes long and filmed on a weekly basis.

An overall excellent production that deserves much better recognition, and I hope to see more like this series in the future.

A unique blend of 360 degrees of emotions ranging from love and sensitivity to cruelty and hatred. Actors are superior in every sense and their portrayals become real. The explitives told by Aziz at the beginning of each episode casts the duality of human nature and conflicts and questions that construct such behavior. A learning experience for the viewer interleaved with tears and fear link humanities best and worst behavior. Had it not been for the sophomoric fighting scenes I would have given the show 10 stars.

I could not pull myself away from it. Loved the show. I really thought the actor playing Double/Davut did an EXCELLENT job portraying the split personalities. Some of the actors were way over the top but there are so many others that were so very good. Hated to watch the last episode since there are no more coming.
