Yesilçam

I will talk about neither plot, nor production but I will sum it up with one sentence "Yesilcam is the best Cagatay Ulusoy series which released in any digital platform so far."

I can tell that Yesilcam is a masterpiece. Cagatay Ulusoy proves once again that his acting talent is unique. I watched both seasons twice. He is fantastic. This role let me speechless, Ulusoy is truely very versatile. The script is with many up and down moments. I recommend to watch it without a doubt, it's a great distribution in an exceptional series.

By the way I discovered Cagatay Ulusoy about 6 months ago, since then a watched all his projects. Before I never watched a turkish series and didn't have a good impression about them. Now I can tell that not all turkish series are the same, at least Cagatay Ulusoy's projects are ok. Which I can't say about other's projects because I still refuse to watch it.

I am already a fan of period pieces and I was expecting such work for a long time. The atmosphere of the period was successfully mirrored. Decor, costumes, makeup, etc. I found everything very harmonious. It's just that their accents were more modern; I'd like them to be treated more sensitively.

Other than that, I really enjoyed watching it. I've always been curious about Yesilcam's behind-the-scenes. For me, I would say that this series has filled a big gap. Not to mention being shot by a director like Cagan Irmak.

After 4 episodes, i can tell the show is well crafted on every aspects. Script, acting, directing, camera, costumes,... BluTV is really good at bringing big names to its platform by choosing interesting scripts. Last year watched Aleph starring Kenan Imirazalioglu and enjoyed it.

First 5 minutes of the show was enough for me to buy this story and be invested in Semih Ates's story. The script along with Cagatay Ulusoy's amazing performance as well as other actors in that 5 minutes is enough for everyone to be interested in Semih's story. Levent Cantak and Volkan Sumbul clearly worked hard on the script.

The pacing is good so far. (they announced it has 2 seasons, each 10 episodes) all characters especially 3 main characters Semih, Mine and Tulin are layered and each episode they reveal more of them.

The show is drama but it doesn't lack of good comical moments. Characters like Vehbi, Hakan, Advieh bring some comical moment which are really well crafted in the story and they don't feel out of place.

Cagan Irmak is really good at bringing the vibe of 60s, 70s. Before Yesilcam i watched My Grandfather's People and that movie increased my expectations and so far i'm enjoying the show so much.

The whole cast are exactly where they should be. No one is out of place. Performances are very good and on point.

Yesilcam just like what Semih said, "I make a movie that heals patients", brings good time to its viewers by telling a beautiful story about Golden days of Turkish Cinema in 60s and 70s.

As a Turkish series, this series, which takes place in Istanbul, is very successful. They reflected the 1960s very well. The players are awesome. I watched with pleasure and longing. Congratulations to the entire team. Quality 👍
