Watched: I Will Find You

Here I am, writing on my blog again after years away. As for how many times – and in how many different ways – I’ve written that line since I first launched the blog, I honestly can’t remember. Anyway…

I’ve just finished the Netflix mini-series I Will Find You in one sitting: 6 hours, without a break.

It was a Sunday, I had the place to myself, I’d signed up to Netflix again after years, and I watched this series that had been popping up for a while and getting a lot of praise. I’m so glad I did.

The pace never drops, yet it never wears you out

First and foremost, I found it very successful as a series whose pace never, ever drops, yet never wears you out either. The story of this 8-episode mini-series is well chosen and well handled, too. Of course, watching shows like this as a father is different now. You can’t help putting yourself in the father’s shoes.

The writing, the twists and the things that jar

Although the writing occasionally reminded me of our own Turkish TV dramas, the way things unravel a little further in almost every episode, while still building to a twist ending, added a new one to the “no way”, “you’re kidding” and “blimey” reactions I kept coming out with throughout the series.

Of course, despite the quality of the writing and the way events are presented so fluidly while keeping the mystery intact, there were a few things that didn’t make sense or that jarred. In particular, the way the twist near the finale was explained was a bit odd. Still, I really enjoyed it.

Who should watch it?

If you’re looking for a gripping series to watch in one sitting at the weekend, you should definitely watch this one.
