Barbaros or Barbaroslar is a romanticized version of the life and adventures of Khairuddin Barbarossa filled with intrigue, romance and idealism. The Turkish Radio and Television’s or TRT1 TV series hit the air waves on September 16 this year, and stars Engin Altan Düzyatan, famous as the main character in Turkish drama series Ertugrul, Ulaş Tuna Astepe, Yetkin Dikinciler, Caner Topcu, Pelin Akil Altan, Gülcan Arslan and Melis Babada. While the overall acting in Barbaroslar so far is superb, the combat scenes and special effects lack spontaneity and realism. This disappointment fans may experience is mitigated by the simply spectacular cinematography, costumes and sets. In reality.
