De Quem Estamos Fugindo?

Welcome to all the most fantastic hotels in Turkey 🇹🇷 My name is Mr. X and I'll be your guide tonight..

Beautiful scenery, polished and well presented but in lack of substance and surprise! Turn off the language and just watch in silence is more exciting than listening to the mother & Bambi presenting/talking like robot's to each other!

It could have been sooo amazing if they just used the natural ingredients from a human being like really work for the script but failed!

I love to see that the production changes the voice over to English and hires really professional actors and saves it a little bit ...

The script is replete with naive and fanciful word flourishes that are meaningless fluff, and also with many, many instances of outlandish, improbable, illogical scenarios. For cheap emotional shortcuts, it leans heavily on Disney's Bambi, which is a pretty traumatic children's tale to start with.

So, it's mostly a crap production, with some beautiful looks, sometimes good acting, but featuring totally over-the-top, histrionic, ridiculous 'baddie' characters as antagonists. I don't think one is supposed to sympathize with a bunch of criminal acts, but it starts to seem justified, and then you just want every other person in this thing to get whacked asap, because almost everyone in the world they inhabit is an interfering moron.

Also, the screenplay/action doesn't match the dialog:

• When a character says, "I'm going to get changed," it hardly follows that the character then disappears for an extended shower that was never mentioned.

• A law enforcement officer angrily says some total nonsense, that 2 vacationer suspects are 'bucking the system', which is hardly what's been depicted, nor a crime in any way. Another one shouts out for people to "stop running," and no one at all is running anywhere.

• The biggest jackhole of the production tells a professional who exhibits nothing but normal competency to "stay calm." Of course, it's a woman in security that a male bro-dude in law enforcement is speaking to. Then, she gets browbeaten for one single event at one location, and without her prior knowledge of any crime, after a parade of thoroughly informed men have previously failed to prevent prior escapes from multiple locations. GTHO!

I liked the suspense but it starts becoming long and drawn out by episode 5. It becomes repetitive. In the beginning they say they have to lay low and not attract attention but in every single episode they do things that bring attention to themselves. This would have been better as a movie to get straight to the point instead of a series. There are too many fluff scenes and fluff dialogue. The cast is good looking and the location settings are beautiful. They're staying at 5 star hotels and blowing through money fast. Alot of their problems wouldn't have happened if they lived a simple life so I guess the story is not supposed to make sense or be logical. Still a good watch to pass time or before bed.

The bizarre relationship between mom and daughter kept me watching. It was the strangest combo. The daughter was super strange. Seriously naive. The mom was a rich lunatic. I know someone like that, so it was fascinating to see how they tossed money around. The chase was crazy. The mom thinking someone wants her daughter...well she was right. The dad was trifling. Both women are gorgeous. I also like how it was filmed with the interviews and such. I do have to say, after the 2nd episode, I kept thinking is every other episode going to be similar with them checking in a hotel and blah blah blah. It was. But then the chase started which made it more interesting. I wanted the girl to break free and say mama is crazy, but she didn't, she was naive for too long. I'm assuming if they do a season 2, she'll find her dad. What a bizarre relationship show, but oh so true with some rich families. Sad, but true.

I am so grateful to find an Eco-feminst production from Turkiye. I am fed up with the father and son conflicts and praising of patriarch in the Turkish media. This serial was a fresh breath to take although there is still some issues concerning patriarch manifested by police, guns, father's black car etc..

Though i would like to see more of how did the mother and daughter decorated their private rooms. The rooms awaked the curiousity and hinted some mystery but at the end the rooms were plain and empty. Of course they could stay only for a short while in each hotel and had no chance to build a private space, yet i wish i could see more authenticity in the rooms.

Intertextuality between such a simple kids Classic Bambi is stunning. The serial earns my 8 shiny stars.
