Exquisite work
anarcheist7 February 2024
Mahsun Karaca started with short videos and proved himself in the field of films and TV series. The scenario does not have an exaggerated story, what makes this series special is that a YouTube phenomenon can make such a good comedy. While the comedy projects of old stars such as Cem Yilmaz, Ata Demirer and Ahmet Kural are fading, Mahsun Karaca now clearly shows who owns the throne. I also liked Yosi Mizrahi's acting very much, I can say that the character he portrays is almost himself. Mahsun Karaca, who makes very high quality comedies with very small budgets, gave the necessary answer for the industry. Tear 'em up Mahsun...

It's a brave job.

I have been following Mahsun for a long time and he has shown his potential in his previous attempts, it goes without saying how good he is at this, the series is interesting but he manages to make people laugh and think by making fun of the bad sides of the country. Yes, the acting is not perfect, but that is not necessary to understand that the script is strong. If he works with quality actors in his future works, he can do better than this. Each episode is better than the previous one, I can see that he understands and learns from his mistakes, and I congratulate him. I hope this great work will be respected and watched all over the world.

The funniest movie I've watched recently
ercanyilmaz-204316 February 2024
Mahsun J series is a masterpiece that can be described as such. Its unique story, deep character development, and impressive narration captivate the audience. One of the greatest strengths behind the success of the series is the complexity and depth of the Mahsun character. Mahsun's internal conflicts, not only reflect the character but also the society and the era itself. The series provides a deep perspective on social issues and gives the audience the opportunity to think. Additionally, the quality of direction and screenplay in Mahsun J is commendable. Each episode is filled with carefully crafted scenes and powerful dialogues that succeed in captivating the audience. The costume and set design masterfully reflect the atmosphere of the era, adding another layer of depth to the series. Mahsun J is not only a series but also a work of art that can be appreciated. With every scene, every character, and every dialogue, it offers the audience an unforgettable experience.

Legend in the making
muratemreozkaya26 January 2024
We all know Japanese people are getting the utmost praise for not being the inventors themselves, but being the innovators, developers. They take an idea and perfectionise it as they can. These guys here also accomplish a similar task in such quality, that makes me so proud as a fellow Turkishman.

The creators obviously inspired from Thomas Jane's Hung (2009), but within two reasons this product gloriously ascends and easily passes its predecessor by leaving it way behind in the comedic scale.

First reason is the universe of the story; because taking the idea from the boring, ever-repeating suburban life of Michigan, USA and bringing it to the lower class, hard struggle streets of Istanbul, Turkiye single handedly builds up and enriches the show with the diversity of possibilities that Istanbul's chaotic and colorful environment provides.

The second and the obviously heavier reason is the lead, Mahsun Karaca. Domestically he is known with his kinda unique humor in his sketch comedy bits, so the creators gave him a lot of space and independence as it is seen. I just finished watching the first two newly released episodes and believe me he delivers. The improvisation level is so well adjusted and when he starts to bring the goods, he brings the golden ones. Especially in the second episode, I couldn't shut my chin up because of his punches. I already feel sorry for the non-Turkish speaking audience, I hope not much will be lost in translation.

I know I am speaking very highly about this, but this is the actual first time I ever bothered to write a review on Imdb. The other cast members, cinematography, score, the whole production is not falling behind also, it is clearly above the acceptable production quality of average Turkish film-making level.

I am waiting fingers crossed for the later episodes and praying they won't mess this up, but I can comfortably say Mahsun J is a legend in the making. Also I feel a little honored and joyful to be the first to write a review for this. So far this team made a believer out of me. Good job guys, two thumbs up! My only tiny criticism is about the name of the series, it should have been "46,5" and became perfect :)) Enjoy!

A perfect start
mustafayasarkar4 February 2024
There is no other TV series in my life that has made me laugh this much. Excellent script, excellent actors and acting. Mahsun Karaca is a self-improving actor who improves himself in every project. Coming from the public makes him someone who has learned the scenario by experiencing it. For the first time we made the right person famous. As a native of Adana, I wish them continued success. We will be with you from the first day to the last day, brother. I would like to thank the gain team, set staff, scriptwriters and staff for pioneering such projects from Turkey. You wrote your name in history in golden letters.

It's sure to be a very interesting production.
mekim-5699030 January 2024
As a courier, I believe that I will really enjoy following this series of Mahsun Karaca. I am admiring a series that features a character who is a motorcycle courier for the first time, as they have never examined or included motorcycle couriers on any platform or in any work before. Although we already follow Mahsun Karaca fondly, I am really proud that he has such a project on various platforms. Even though the subject is a bit strange, it is a really fun production. I wish Mahsun Karaca success in his life. I hope this series and him will come to much better places..........................

COMING FROM LIFE
ylmzsrtk4 February 2024
This leading actor, who comes from the public, successfully reflects the tragicomic stories in our daily lives into the series. Only 2 episodes of the series have been released. If we make a review based on the 2 episodes, I am sure that we will enjoy watching the next episodes. We want the Turkish TV series industry to move in this direction. I hope many more episodes will be shot. Mahsun Karaca, who previously shot videos on YouTube that were loved by the public, proved that he would be successful in the TV series industry with this series. We are looking forward to seeing what topics will be captured in the upcoming episodes of the series.

Thanks mahsun

Warning: Spoilers
It is a film that will actually appeal to the Turkish people. I can fill this space with pleasure without getting lazy. To be one of the best movies shot in Turkey recently. This is the first time the courier bikers have appeared in a movie. It's a laugh-out-loud movie. If the filming is not over, they may want to keep the yellow character a little more prominent. It also makes sense that episodes are released weekly on the treacherous platform. It would be beneficial for this series to have 2 seasons, 10 + 10, and I also think that the interview team should also take part in the series. However, it should be in places away from unnecessary leaks. This time it gets annoying.

BIG ACTOR MAHSUN
crackgamerstr10 February 2024
This leading actor, who comes from the public, successfully reflects the tragicomic stories in our daily lives into the series. If we make a review based on the 4 episodes, I am sure that we will enjoy watching the next episodes. We want the Turkish TV series industry to move in this direction. I hope many more episodes will be shot. Mahsun Karaca, who previously shot videos on YouTube that were loved by the public, proved that he would be successful in the TV series industry with this series.

Pretty good
rawena_bll1 March 2024
These guys are the best storytellers I've seen in a long time, that's for sure. They do a great job at reflecting the problems and lives of these complex, unique and very real characters. I want to mention Sultan (eniste) especifially here, Ayca Damgaci blew my mind with this role. The way she mimics that spesific type of character with all its male mannerisms is incredible. I'll be sure to follow her works more closely.

I appreciate this series for taking a wild swing while most others dig around with a spoon. It's refreshing and I believe it would be encouraging for others in the industry. Raw, honest, fresh, fun with a capability of taking it all the way to the darkest side while still making fun of it all. That makes Mahsun J unique.

Still I have some criticism, of course. The storytelling may be top notch but the story is very awkward at places. Like bahar's husband's storyline feels like a whole different show with a slower pace and very shallow vibe, like those 3 hour dramas on mainstream tv. And I don't get why leyla's character has to be so unlikable and irrelevant. Like deniz said in the last episode, I find myself saying "cok gerek vardi" at Leyla at times.(Deniz is one of my favorites btw) I get it, she's the straight man of the show but man, every time she talks it's to berate mahsun or express displease. I'd like her to be more layered especially how much screen time she's given. It's like there are many failed attempts at connecting leyla to the main story but it just doesnt happen. The quality dropped slightly with every episode and now I feel like it's a 7/10 for me instead of my original 9/10 unless they make a glorious finale that ties all the mess together, but I also like to be encouraging so 9 from me to you guys. Very solid effort overall.

My favorite J is Mahsun J
elifoguzkan3 March 2024
I congratulate "Interview Man" Mahsun, whom we know with his short videos, for his first series. Incredibly natural acting and absurd comedy. When I first heard about the series from my friend, I didn't expect this much. Until I watched it, I was wondering what the man who turned from a moto courier into a gigolo could say the most that would make me laugh. I value the work done on digital platforms and I really think they have made a difference in the Turkish TV series industry. In this period when I was so bored of seeing the same faces all the time, Mahsun J came like a cure. By the way, I must say that it is really nice to have valuable old players added to the squad. I watch it and I make you watch it with laughter.

Amazing
thuram-8693423 February 2024
Absolutely! Here it goes:

"Wow, where do I even begin? This comedy series is an absolute gem that has captured my heart from the very first episode. From its witty dialogue to its impeccable comedic timing, every moment is a joy to watch. The characters are so well-developed and lovable that I find myself eagerly anticipating each new episode just to see what hilarious antics they'll get up to next. But what truly sets this series apart is its ability to tackle important and sometimes difficult topics with grace and humor, making it not only entertaining but also incredibly thought-provoking. It's the perfect blend of laughter and heart, and I couldn't be more grateful for the laughter and joy it brings into my life with every episode. In a world that can often feel overwhelming, this comedy series is like a ray of sunshine, reminding us to laugh, love, and embrace the absurdity of life. Thank you to the creators, writers, and cast for sharing your talent and bringing so much joy to all of us viewers. I can't wait to see what hilarious adventures await in the next season!"

Marvelous to serial
papugai-7773812 February 2024
Perfect tv serial which I have been waiting for a long time! Thank you Muhsin Karaca, your performance and acting is perfect and scenario is remarkable! Tells the true life events happening in daily life in Turkey and humor is perfect. After Mahsun YouTube video series I was not expecting that kinda masterpiece . I loved the tv series and can not wait for next eposides. Really wish not spolining the food start but getting better. Hopefully 5th eposide tells us what happened with "Eniste" and "Ates" 🤣. I also think that would be perfect to include co players from YouTube series, definitely would be more funny to watch.
