El Turco is a masterpiece. The plot is very interesting and very intriguing, it reveals real historical events by personal stories, fights between christians and muslis, between goods and evil. Scenography, costumes and soundtrack are amazing.
The actors have been chosen perfectly .The most impressive thing is a performance of Can Yaman as Hasan Balaban. He deserves many prizes and glory.
The action is very intensive, I couldn't stop watching El Turco until the end. I cried, was so excited and I needed a time to recover from these so strong emotions. I'm looking forward to for season 2 and recommend to everyone to watch ElTurco.

A BEAUTIFULLY shot film, with a "continuous" plot. A mix of historical fiction and action! And I liked everything! It was a great project, and I watched it in one go. The cast is amazing. Well done, everyone. CAN is divinely talented, as always magnificent, brilliantly coped with the role of Hassan Balaban. Rating 10/10. I love all the movies with, CAN but he's amazing here! He plays in such a way that emotions go through the roof! Thanks to everyone who worked on the series! CAN Yaman! - Thank you for being here!!!

For those who have studied the historical epic of reference, it is truly like being transported there, between magic, superstitions, poverty, heroic impulses and divisions between castes and peoples. The Ottoman Empire of that presses at the gates of Catholic Europe. The characters are all well characterized, they have their own little-big story to tell.... Hasan Balaban, rejected and unjustly accused, finds courage to redeem himself and take his place among the righteous. Glory is his cure for the wounds of the body and, above all, of the soul two strangers, two lost souls who find, in each other, their own.
This is fantastic international series with absolutely gripping plot which starts at frame one and finishes at last frame of episode qui ding plot to opening of potential season 2. Can Yaman has delivered master performance which glues you to the screen from get go. His portrayal of torment and pain leaves you breathless while on other side his performance in love scenes with Gloria are completely convincing. Greta Ferro delivers incredible heroin Gloria with complete conviction and Will Kemp and Kieran O'Reilley deliver stunning antagonists. The shout also goes to Magnus Samuelson and his performance as Gunther.... This is must watch and must season 2 project.
