The film's narrative is stuck in a time warp. While the writers' mindset is contemporary, the script attempts to transport us back to the late 1980s. Unfortunately, this endeavor falls short, lacking conviction and authenticity.
The script itself is not so weak, but it sorely needs a more nuanced dramaturgical approach and realistic art direction. Certain anachronisms, such as doctors' secretary playing Solitaire on a computer and Zuhal using a rollaboard suitcase, are jarring and unconvincing, even for the 1990s.
With more attention to period detail and a more thoughtful approach to storytelling, this film could have been more engaging and believable.

This remake is a total dissappoinment and fiasco. Really sloppy scenario and dialogs (I could not stand one more "f..k off" curse from the leading actress). The original was much more better in art direction (come on ...chandelier in 2020's ...only maybe in the tv shows and retro wannabe shops) and building the middle class life realities of 80's Turkey. This is like a clumsy parody of the original one, which was like nightmare of an independent woman who runaway from nuclear familys' bondings but this one is almost like a circus. Mujde Ar plays more real and insist staying neurotic as being a dissociative patient but the new actress is acting ameteurishly hysterical and psychotic. So I recommend everyone to watch the original movie in order to understand what the film was supposed to criticize such as consumer culture, moral dilemmas and societal changings of that era. In sum this adaptation missed two essentials of the original version: being critical and funny which are the spirit of the original movie.
All serial killer stories almost exactly rely on same cliches and streotypical profiles but this is a multilayered portrait of a serial killer sociopath and also depiction of a therapist who tries to connect with him by deep self/ autoanalysis. Yes its short but simple significant and sufficient. You may even see Viktor Frankl in Auschwitz scene which was a brilliant reference. Maybe its time to change the paradigm that a show supposed to be at least forty minutes with lots of unnecessary dialogs and repetitive scenes. Even the intro is short in here and I am sure that is on purpose. So yes this show will be a game changer.
