Not sure why all the bad reviews. I definitely enjoyed this film, a welcome departure from the usual Turkish traditional dizis which I also love for different kinds of viewing pleasure.
So happy to see Alperin back in anything. Been missing him and his gifts as an actor. Funda Eryigit is also excellent as she was when these two acted together in Son Yaz(a great binge). The husband Mehmet Gunsar Is also great but I am unfamiliar with him up until this film.
Ashes presents a very passionate, deeply psychological, sophisticated and complicated plot with lots of interesting twists and turns and in the end, much is left up to the individual viewer's interpretation. Still thinking about it and trying to understand what it all meant- in a good way.

Charming, engaging, insightful very contemporary film about love and relationships.
Fabulous acting as always by Kivanc Tatlitug and Beren Saat. Always both excellent. Definitely a departure from some previous roles in Turkish Dizis. Some very surprising(for Turkish film) but welcome steamy moments of many kinds. Beren Saat is amazing as she enters an orgasm contest in a nightclub in NYC. Crazy, fun idea in the script. Very New York. Story set mainly around 24 hrs in New York City with a few unexpected twists and turns. The two leads play off beautifully against each other. Each are completely compelling to watch. I will say no more other than I highly recommend watching this film!

So far the series is one of the best. Raises the issues os social class in a powerful and realistic way.
Yabani Ali is a great protaganist. You empathize and fall in love with him immediately. His mother also is so gifted in this role as is the entire family including the unwelcoming evil twin siblings, mean and up to no good so far. I hope they mellow a bit bc continuing on that path will soon be too much oa a trope, tiring to watch and unnecessary to tell this often both heartbreaking and uplifting story.
The plot revolving around Yabani's street family is also heartwarming to watch and Im also hoping that part of the plot doesnt deteriorate.
