Son: Le Passager Disparu du Vol 163

Agree with the other reviews. The flashbacks within flashbacks within flashbacks were tricky, especially at the beginning, and with many time differences. More manageable as the series progresses and you 'understand' what's going on. Still, a rather gripping series. The plot lines multiply but they all seem to be connected someway through the characters. And we love the views of everyday Turkish life, homes, decorations, dress; they offer an interesting insight. As one reviewer noted, not scenes of Turkey we normally see in the U.S. There are also scenes in Iran, I believe, and there, too, the background scenery is interesting: the extremely narrow pathways (you can hardly call them streets) in neighborhoods; the barren exteriors and the lush interiors. An interesting lesson in geography.

I absolutely loved this series: the acting, the plot, the twists and the cliffhanger ending of each episode. I have never seen anything filmed in Turkey or Iran and really enjoyed seeing the background, the clothes and the culture. There was a real contrast between the scenes shot in Iran and Turkey. I liked the way the scenes shifted between the characters. It added to the suspense. I would like to see another series like this one.

I´m going to be completely honest here. I didn´t watch every episode of "Son" (Swedish title: "Lögnen"/"The Lie"). Why? I had very little time and, sorry to say it, interest in the end. I watched at least 32 episodes. In other words I must say that I saw enough to have questions, opinions and confusion.

First of all it´s way too many flashbacks for me! I couldn´t really keep up. Very often I felt confusion. What year or place is it now in this TV series? Some flashbacks were unnecessary. Few things were explained. Where is the romantic chemistry between this TV series couples? What drives Cevdet? Is it his family, money, revenge, justice or something else? Why didn´t Selim tell the truth to Aylin? He should have told her everything!

I know that my home country Sweden is one of Norways neighbours. And yes, I like Norway very much. But why did this TV series include just a few Norwegian scenes? Norway deserved to be seen more.

All in all I, quite sadly, don´t take with me a lot of things after watching "Son". I´m sorry, but for me it´s true.

So strange - IMDb only lists seven episodes of "Son (The End)", but Netflix has 49, all under Season 1. The first 20 or so are about 47 minutes each in length, but the remainder about 28 minutes. Lots to watch!

Great acting by all, good casting, especially central character Erkan Can and Engin Altan Düzyatan who plays his younger brother. Beautiful homes, offices and scenery. New Year's Eve I was binge watching the series, enjoying seeing parts of Turkey we rarely see on American television.

An upstairs restaurant location halfway through resembles the Reina nightclub on the Bosphorus Strait. Just then I switched to the news and there was the terrible attack in Istanbul - almost thought I was dreaming.

Agree with the previous review that the beginning episodes are a bit confusing when they switch back to various years, but eventually it all makes sense. Well worth watching.
