"Ru" is actually a mediocre series that started off really well but fell apart after the third episode and unfortunately had a terrible ending.
I think that the scriptwriter looked at it and said, "I can't write a decent ending for this story on its own flow, let me come up with something out of nowhere so that people will be surprised at least."
My friend, writing a series or a movie is not like that. You can't draw a path outside the main focus of a story whose main subject is the relationship between two people!
The acting of everyone except Meryem Uzerli is disgraceful. I have never seen a team that can't identify with the characters so much. From Emre Karayel to the guy who played Tumsek, from Uzer's friends (Mete was a bit better) to the guest actress Gonca, everyone was terrible, unfortunately. I'm not even going to get into Sevval Sam's ridiculous style...

Probably won't happen again.
But;;
1) Even french doesn't show this much nudity. A little bit too much.... Okay. (1st try. Acceptable. Maybe to get more audience horny crowd.)
2) The sick mother's hair looks irritatingly fake.
Coundn't watch her scenes without noticing that furry hair. (After awhile just , got used to it)
3) German turk lady. Accent is distracting.
You know when a movie suck you in, you never think about they are acting right now. .. but with that accent , i got outside frequently.
* *) At 1st episode lady shouting her husband scene, normal turk woman wouldn't shout like that.
I said to myself "this can happen in real life person can be half Turkish, might have accent.."
---- If you can Put all these little annoyances aside.
The series is ok. Good . Decent enough to watch.
Between 6.0 - 7.5
cant decide exact rating.

First of all, please disregard the reviews from wwwminaninamn and minabaibe - fans of mediocre IloSen are just as pathetic as their idol.
The truth is first two episodes of RU series are amazing, captivating and just beautifully done from script-cinematic-acting perspective.
Meryem and BBA play really good, they both do their best to portrait their complicated characters in this exciting story. And the rest of cast is doing a great supporting job, each one is chosen precisely!
Great acting is captured by very talented directing, one just can't get enough of how beautiful is the picture. The soundtrack also adds to the magical atmosphere of the Aegean region.
A must-must watch for everyone!

I just watched 2 episodes back to back and I loved it. I really liked the script, directing, music score, and actor performances.
The series continues on by taking you to the beautiful scenes of the Aegean region without getting boring and makes you wonder what's going to happen next.
Along with the Bahadir Karatas's amazing directing the music score by Ahmet Leo Vural is absolutely amazing I think it plays a big role in the series and it really adds up to it. The music that plays at the end of the first episode gives you goosebumps.
In summary outstanding drama that I've never seen anything a like in Turkey which makes the RU so unique in a good way. Well done to those who took a part of it. I highly recommend watching the series to anyone.

First of all, I have to be honest that is this serie is not one star because the series receives more than one star receives at least four but not more than that. The reason it deserves four stars it's because of the actor work zafer alagoz. Unnecessary nakedness is the biggest disappointment of this streaming platform and this cheap story. Segs sells is an old quote. This series also implies that there is romance. Which is cheap. The main character in the series which is at least two minutes naked every episode is also a very weird disappointment. Nobody will understand why she speaks this terrible Turkish and tries to explain to the viewer that her father is Swedish really lol.

I was really looking forward to watch this series, as the story sounded really promising from the very beginning. And after firts two episodes I 100% recommend this drama to everyone. FIrst, you'll be surprised as it is definite step up for Turkish series. Acting, directing, soundtrack - everything is just amazing. The duet of Meryem and Burak Berkay deserves special applause. I was actually suprised at how great they look together! Meryem is experienced and very talented, Burak is a really talended young actor. And together they just attract your attention to the screen. Can't wait to see how this story will unfold.

RU stands out for its visual aesthetics and excellent cinematography. Each scene is carefully designed as if it were a work of art. The camera angles and the use of light perfectly reflect the atmosphere of the story. Visual effects and set design take the audience to a mesmerising world. The choice of music also enhances the emotional impact of the scenes. RU is a visually satisfying and aesthetically pleasing production that offers audiences an unforgettable experience.
I was also beautifully moved by the story. I don't normally like this kind of drama, but I really fell in love with this drama. Thank you.

Absolutely stunning series from Turkey, you will be surprised....!
Of course the story is daring: a very passionate love story between an older woman with a young guy... but it never gets cheesy, because there are such deep emotional conflicts which the actors truly transport, I was touched in so many ways...
Time flies, never gets boring, the opposite: YOU CANNOT WAIT to see the next show.... Such a perfect mix of characters and outstanding Meryem Uzerli & Burak Berkay Akgül. You will be touched in many ways, I guarantee you!
By the way: When I watch it I want to go to Izmir Urla, because you get this special hot summer feeling.... I am thankful to the writer of that beautiful story and the great realisation, it reminded me of french love cinema, it is a piece of art...

Ru is about the love between a teenager and a middle aged woman living in the beautiful coast of Aegean.
Good acting with decent cinematography marks a new high for Turkish TV. Main story is quite relatable, with also striking side stories accompanying it.
The focus on the anatomy of taste and taming of the ego makes it even more interesting. Love, memory and food are intertwined to portray an admirable courage to resist the commonsense.
Here it is,Ru: a beautiful story, beautiful people and beautiful scenery. You will enjoy every second of this mini series. But wait until the last scene. Booooom!!! What an epic ending. Congratulations...

"RU" is a triumph in the realm of Turkish dramas, showcasing a brave and compelling story. It is not easy to present a narrative that challenges traditional Turkish culture, even in movies. When I saw the trailer, I thought, "What a great idea, so different from many other films made in Turkey." It offers a perfect blend of captivating storytelling, exceptional performances, and stunning visuals. Meryem Uzerli's portrayal is a highlight, making "RU" a must-watch for fans of quality television. Whether you're a long-time admirer of Turkish dramas or new to the genre, "RU" promises to be an unforgettable experience.

Must watch for sure again and again. Thank youuuuu!!!! Love.
