Review of Karadayi

Karadayi (2012–2015)
5/10
Rather Complex drama
17 June 2015
Warning: Spoilers
OK first I really didn't like to watch this series mostly because Turkey's series has very long eps, boring and easy to predict plot, also the story is too complex with mindset that different with people's mindset in my country, however this serial even though the story is rather dragging since Turkey's drama tends to make unwanted scenes and uses slow-motion for the effect still acceptable. Let's see for a foreigner like me who grew up in a free country and received education abroad I'm used to having broad minded and easy-going attitude so I sometimes rather don't understand with the naivety of the characters' mind but still I try to understand more. So when the story went to season 2 it became better mainly because of the plot. The villain truly showed brilliant thinking and other character like the brother of the hero here showed distinguish breakthrough of naive and kind mindset still the script written slow hence the series which suppose can be short become longer than its necessary. Then on season 3 where the start rather entertaining to see the male lead became smart and nurtured as a kind gangster by his father's friend but then the writer tried to make him looked dumb again by made him come back to his old lover (Feride) well let's say because she was a dumb she was dragging her lover became dumb too, let's call Mahir and Feride the main lead characters here as dumb and dumber just like what a person wrote in one of Karadayi's forum.

I find it funny reading comments mostly from "Karadayi" forum that called "Orhan" the hero's little brother here as Dumb even called him and his ex-brother in law Dumb and Dumber, well certainly the person who wrote it is rather dumb herself and yes the ex-brother in law is truly dumb but let's try to understand that this guy was losing his beloved kid certainly he could get angry to the world and get drunk, back to the topic Orhan is not a dumb person this guy using his brain and mainly because Orhan is the smartest in the family because his brother is a hot-headed person so he was easily being set up by many people and his hot attitude fought with injustice openly created many enemies for him and his family while Orhan is a calm person he would think first before act (of course accept for love he chose his ex whom betrayed him once). However on season 3 they changed the smart Orhan became stupid Orhan, Orhan was dumb when he chose to go back to his stupid brother then almost got himself killed few times because of his stupidity. The father is OK but had old- fashion of thinking, the women there cannot live without men supporting them yup on the old days it happened but women in Kara's family are totally being over protected by the father and brothers hence making them cannot think far beyond border. The villain here "Mehmet Saim" is a genius master mind freak killer, he never used his own hand to kill people instead using other's but the man got what he deserved at the end. Then we have the heroine "Feride" Mahir's ultimate lover, supporter, and true love she was rather naive and stupid but she was growing up throughout the series because she was living in a world created by her father so she didn't really know the situation and the bad things happen in a real world. I didn't really admire her selfish love for showing amazing love for Mahir and not caring for her parents' thought and well being at all but the writer worked hard to show that her dad is the evil one so it's OK for his child to take her dad's love for granted, while honestly I can understand his dad's mind. Who would want her/his daughter to end up with a rude and stupid person like Mahir who throughout episodes always ended up in jail because his hot-tempered attitude hence easy for his enemies to trap him killing someone, no plot changed it happened around 3/4 time already or maybe more until I lose count of his stupidity. Here the writer of the story tried testing their love into a despair before actually gained "Happily ever after" ending.

So watch this drama if you have spare time with your family because this series teaching people about hideous and cunning way of people hurting others and for people to survive and defend their family and love. Most importantly not to act like Mahir or you'll end up in big deep troubles like he had and don't act like Feride a selfish young woman with no logical thinking who can only think about her beautiful and pure love while not thinking about the consequences of her actions, she always think that she is the most tragic heroine in the world while hello most people couldn't be as lucky as her being pampered in a rich family, being protected, and more important get a good job as a judge because of your dad's connection and being respected and listened to by people. Teens can believe this non sense story but the rationale will not.

I don't really like this serial but since it is showing in my country on weekdays night so it's quite entertaining to watch it but the story as I wrote before is too dragging and many unnecessary scenes are shown also the characters becoming stupid on season 3 except for Ayten, a smart woman who could protect herself after her divorce and still cared about others.

Btw this series is better than ezel, that one is boring and too complicated and non-sense with tragic ending.
