AFTER watching episode 14, NOW i revert back to 5 stars! excellent. very inspiring in terms of humanity and very faith building in terms of portrayal of Islamic values. I hope the drama will continue in this direction.
(BELOW WERE MY TWO PREVIOUS COMMENTS BEFORE EPISODE 14)
Few weeks ago I praised this drama and gave 5 stars. BUT NOW I give only ONE STAR. After watching from episod 1 until episod 11, I realized the plot is too naive and routine. It is always about KIDNAPPINGsssss. The villains kidnapped people, the heroes tried to save them and by fate they rescued them. And almost ALL episods, their endings portrayed very lame heroes who think and behave like weaklings. The villains always got away and the heroes always being bullied. SUCH KINDS OF LAME CHARATERIZATIONS OF MUSLIM HEROES COULD NOT HAVE POSSIBLY BECAME THE SWORD OF THE MEDITERRANEAN.
Very uninspiring demotivating drama. Failure to understand the INTELLIGENCE of the OTTOMAN CALIPHATES.
My previous positive comments are below:
The 1st episod stated slow but the rest of the episods (I have watched 7 episodes) are so inspiring and exciting. Excellent scenes and acting.
