Le rose di Versailles - Lady Oscar

The character development is nonexistent, and they made a terrible musical. It has time jumps of years in seconds, and the story as it was told generates no interest.

The love story between the characters is incongruous.

The story of Marie Antoinette and King Louis XVI is almost nonexistent; it loses all the context that the original series had and that made it interesting.

On the other hand, the songs are neither adequate nor of high quality, which causes a feeling of discomfort when you realize they've transformed the story into a musical. This, in my personal opinion, is the most negative aspect.

Don't watch it; just keep the memories of the original series.

The art is very detailed, but it doesn't make up for the poorly developed film.

What gave beauty to the series was the music.

Here the music was replaced with unnecessary childish songs!!!!!. No touching music was added!!

The original work was very luxurious and touching and was engraved in our memory.

This work does not live up to the standard. Not effective and very childish as if it was intended for a 5 year old...

Since you made the same faces, why didn't you make the same general atmosphere that is touching and loved by young and old?????

When Andre and Oscar died in the series, we cried for days!!

The scene here didn't get its due here!! Unnecessary effects and scenes.

Just saw this movie on Netflix and since i saw the poster and trailer i thought it looked amazing.

After seeing the movie i'm left with mixed feelings.

The movie feels like it can't decide on who to focus, switching between Lady Oscar and Maria Antonieta

It also summarizes some of the historical events that led to the demise of the old french regimen

Biggest complain for me are the constant musical numbers that in my opinion don't do a very good job at explaining part of the story and also the music isn't very good

There are far too many musical montages even to the point that there would be 2 songs back to back.

Enjoyed the overall plot about Oscar, King Luis 16, Antonieta and what love means to them, many of the scenes have outstanding visuals, but some of the scenes look blank, it's a mixed bag.

I really didn't like any of the musical numbers.

The film was very superficial and fast-paced. It didn't give the main story and events of the revolution their due. Everything was unclear and rushed. Most of the focus was on the relationships, while the deeper, more important historical events of the story were neglected. I understood the ending because I had already watched the original anime; otherwise, the plot would have been vague.

In addition, the film made it seem as though Oscar's happiness in the end was due to her finding love, and that the entire dilemma revolved around it. This is partially true, but it's not the main reason. The deeper reason, which was ignored, is that she finally rebelled and followed her heart and freedom after being a mere scapegoat following orders her entire life. Oscar was also portrayed as a much weaker character than in the anime, breaking down and crying in front of the army! Oscar was never like that; her image was distorted and weakened greatly.

I can excuse them since it's a movie, and they're limited to a certain length, thus neglecting some aspects and events. We all know that the romantic market is strong, so it's normal to focus more on the aspects of love to ensure greater success and returns. Overall, the movie is incomparable and does not reach the level of the original work, the seventies anime, at all.

With barely 2 hours, it was clear that the feature film would cut many things present in the manga and the old anime from which this film is based, but the things absent are really too many.

They have sacrificed many elements in this film that are fundamental to fully understanding this work, starting with the most obvious one: having a female protagonist forced to grow up and act as a man, which is more prominently introduced here at more than 30 minutes after the incipit, but still coming across as always oversimplified in the overall. Even the other events that are more closely linked to actual history, and which should have a greater impact on Marie Antoinette's growth, are treated with extreme speed; everything is oversimplified in this film, in a decidedly negative way.

Unfortunately all expectations were confirmed: redundant, cloying film, forced musical interludes, little pathos and unfortunately the characters are without charisma.
