I really like Turkish movies and especially enjoy the cultural details, listening to the language, the stars and especially the fantastic scenery! So, I don't like rating this one so low and based upon it's own points it should be higher.
However, I also have to be fair to myself and others like me. I have watched several Turkish TV series from beginning to end and with each one, it gets harder and harder to finish the series. Not because there are not wonderful entertainment aspects, but they are too similar to American soap operas and I will not watch even one episode of those! If the highly emotional/dramatic scenes don't bother you, then I heartily recommend you watch and enjoy this.
