WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Yazmin Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Armand the social aspects of old Turkish rules, the splendid landscapes, the decent performances, the music and the pieces from a world at borders of modernization. each of them represents a virtue. but the essence is the ordinary pink romanticism, the adventures in fake clothes, the accent on a beautiful couple and the tricks of each soap opera who impose the frame of a world with deep roots of fairy tale for adults. it is a nice series. not remarkable but useful window to a strange civilization. the poor girl, the cute aga, the sacrifice, love, revenge, walls and good intentions are each at right place and the right dimension. a film about relationships and order , in many parts version of The Beauty and The Beast, not different by the long chain of Turkish soap operas but , in essence, beautiful, almost against the not the best script.

John The Smith At first glance this Turkish telenovela may seem just another love story routine, but it is later on much more than that. As some reviewer before me already nicely explained, the main plot actually shows how liberal-oriented Sila is fighting the old conservative dogmatic traditions, which are still often used to suppress the unguilty by those in charge. The plot condemns unwillingness to send children to schools, honour killings, meaningless patriarchy, discrimination of women, and so on. While it seemed to me that acting was somehow stiff, it still doesn't deserve such a low rating, especially considering how daring the whole crew who made this piece was. This is an important and advanced work of art for the Turkish culture.

montenegrofoundation This rather long and sometimes, too long TV series is actually very well done and gives insight to some of the aspects of Turkish society torn between modernism and ancient tribal traditions. Beautiful photography in equally magnificent scenery make this series a must see.The complicated relationship between Sila and Boran is well interpreted by two good professional actors and obviously well directed. The plot is sometimes exaggerated and melodramatic but obviously the producers had to find ways to add episodes in order to sell them. In spite of this, the director managed to assemble something which has captured the attention of millions of households, making it one of the best episode TV movies of the past decade.

melatapproved I love this movie very much. This is one of the best movies I've seen so far. Story line and the cast are wonderful. I love it. I wish it would never go off air. Please have it go on for another year. I don't know what I will do once it's done. Cansu and Mehmet are a great couple in Sila, excellent. Beautiful people there is no one who could of done it better in Sila than them two. I wish Sila could go on forever. The cast are doing a great job in making the story so real even the new cast members. I wish I was a part of the movie. I love Boran also love Sila, but Boran is my favorite. He is an handsome man. Boran and Sila forever. I wish the ending is a happy ending for them. Sila is number one. Forever and ever.
