Awaken (2018)
beautiful images but...
I tried to watch this at normal speed first, than I was annoyed at the slow mo and timelapses. I speed things up until I reach x3 speed, and still it was too slow and couldn't continue watching it. I stopped after 15min.
If you like timelapses, repetitive images and slow motion and zen music, it's a good movie for you but I prefer Samsara 10000x better than this.
Sisi (2021)
a nice story with nice costumes
I'm a very big fan of Elisabeth of Austria, been twice to Vienna, been to Madeira to see the place where she's been and this tv serie doesn't represent her story at all. Maybe 10% of the series is based on true events and what angered me the most, it wasn't filmed in Austria, and never filmed in Vienna. The first Sissi movies made in 1955 were much better, with real sceneries and real castles where Elisabeth lived. Yes it's modern, made in 2021 and modernity means a lot of nude scenes and sex. I don't recommend it if you know the real story of Elisabeh because you will be disappointed. If you've never heard of Sissi and Franz Joseph, then you might like it for the costumes and the castles of Lituania and Latvia. Which are nowhere near Austria and Sisi has never been to those countries. I give 4 stars because I'm generous !
