This is a show on an epic scale. All the actors were great, the direction, costume everything else great. However the lead actor was on a platform of his own. He carried the show with the fury and passion he dedicated to the character. Move over gladiator and braveheart, Engins role portrayal of Etrugul is extremely gallant, Valliant and masculine as well as the fact he is so very handsome. He was definitely well cast. I liked the love story between him and Halime. My only criticism is that the show was too long which could have been reduced by not duplicating similar storylines of betrayal and vying for power amongst the tribes.
