    What you think is not always right.

    The series "Savage" is a series with high standards of serialization. The story of the series is based on reality, which itself affects the brilliance of this work. A good script, excellent cinematography, and wonderful direction have made this series a masterpiece in Iranian cinema. The precision and elegance that goes into making this series is unparalleled. The acting is very high-level. I recommend watching this series regardless of which country's series you are a fan of.

    Synopsis: Davoud Ashraf is a mine worker. He is considered one of the poor people in society. He unintentionally gets involved in a terrible incident that changes his life.

    Just Wow!!

    From the very first episode, Jawad Ezati's performance captivated me in a way few actors ever have. His ability to embody his character with such depth, intensity, and nuance is nothing short of extraordinary. Every glance, every line delivery, and every subtle expression carries weight, pulling the audience deeper into the story. If you haven't been watching this series, you're missing out on one of the most compelling performances in recent television history-and if you don't recognize this as a cinematic masterpiece, then maybe movies and TV just aren't your thing.

    Wow! Wow! Just wow thank you for this masterpiece!

    Just Perfect!

    From the beginning scene of the first episode I realized we are facing and watching a high quality series and everything are in the right place even the boy and girls acting in the first episode was really good and I was surprised!

    Javad Ezatis acting was the flagship of this Series and I put in the top of them all with Negar Javaherians good partnership.

    And the last word I think Houman Seyedi is a good Iranian Actor but he is great in producing! Movies and series who is proved it before with the frog series Thank you all for this great product and respecting the audience.

    Viva My Country Iran.

    One of the best series in the world

    In Iranian produce it is a uncredible thing .everything is good such as music to actors and story.its a complete series and it's about a man kill two kids Unintentionally and the police catch him but he want to escape from the most security prison in Asia, this film such as prison break.and another think I like very much is each episode you don't know what happen in the series and you should ready for everything that you never think.

    I like javad ezati in the one role in the series , he had a such a great experience in such role he play in that role so great and perfect and at end I want to thank from human seyyedi for this great film.

    "Vahshi" Deserves a Global Stage - Netflix, Take Note!

    One of the most powerful and artistically bold series to come out of Iran in recent years is Vahshi ("Savage"), directed by the visionary filmmaker Houman Seyyedi and starring the incredibly talented Javad Ezzati. This gripping, emotionally charged series blends psychological depth, masterful storytelling, and world-class cinematography in a way that rivals the very best of international television.

    Javad Ezzati delivers a career-defining performance - raw, nuanced, and unforgettable. Seyyedi, who is known for pushing creative boundaries, brings a unique voice and cinematic style to the screen that elevates Vahshi far beyond conventional drama. The narrative explores dark and complex human emotions with maturity and artistic finesse, making it more than just a local success - it's a story with universal appeal.

    Vahshi meets all the standards of top-tier global productions. From its meticulously crafted scenes to its hauntingly beautiful score, this series is not just good - it's exceptional. It belongs on a platform like Netflix, where diverse voices and boundary-breaking stories find the global audience they deserve.

    It's time for the world to see what Iranian cinema and television are truly capable of. Netflix should definitely consider acquiring Vahshi - a true masterpiece waiting to be discovered by the world.
