In itself a fascinating approach to the Sissi (Sisi?) story. Only: in a series you expect each season to end with a high or low point. Nothing actually happens here at the end, you don't know at all from the series itself where history will go next. It is very clear that there needs to be a sequel - if the market wants it that way. The question remains whether this will happen. Because of the vision, we score this with 8*. Cinematically, I am a little less enthusiastic. The camera and direction are excellent and fascinating, the lighting is less so and the DVD transfer is rather mediocre. Too bad for the work done. We remain hungry while waiting for a sequel. If this does not happen, the series will drop in my rating because it cannot live up to the original premise; insight into the history and drama of Sisi himself. (M)

The last three episodes weren't necessary. Should have put the missing pieces in the first three episodes and maybe made four episodes.

Mediocrity predominates in this remake of the cult classics Sissi (the one with double S). Dominique Devenport is no Romy Schneider and doesn't have the charisma. For people who have never seen the real Sissi, I recommend watching the classics, preferably around Christmas. Otherwise reasonably successful, but lacks the chemistry of the trilogy.

Totally disagree with you. The old trilogy is so sweet that it will splash the enamel off your teeth. Not that that is bad, but this series has a completely different approach. Here the actual history is followed and not the over-romanticized of the films. So you cannot compare the films and this series at all. In the films, so much of the actual history is taken out of context that everyone just accepts those stories as truth. However, if you do a little research, this series comes much closer to what actually happened at that time.

Film is also how you experience it and does not have to be the absolute truth, it's just how you experience it. I'm going for the real Sissi.
