Lady Oscar (1979)

Sadly Over-hyped

Just perfect...

Good movie but grossly overrated

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

It's 2016 now but it is important to tell you guys : this movie is an awful movie!! I've watched lots of live-action movies but this is unacceptable!! First , about the whole movie. It was so fast. I know , it is hard to turn an anime with 40 episodes to a movie about 2 hours but I blame it on the director. Everything went to fast. André confessed to Oscar too soon , Rosalie cannot suddenly appear and say: You kill my mother,... Secondly, about the characters. Oscar is a strong woman but the Oscar that I saw in this movie isn't strong enough to be Oscar. She seems to be like a random girl from lots of movies. And André was such a failure!! I was so surprised when I saw him.His character has turned to be a douchebag. It is okay if this is a random movie. But it's a live-action so all the changes in this movie is unacceptable because it went too far from the manga/anime!! I hope you guys will not see this movie when you've already watched the anime

I'm a crazy fan of Rose of Versailles manga for a long long time, and I watch anime version, some scene of Takazakura version, a rock musical version in Italia. All of them are really close to the original one, but when I watch this live action, I cannot believe it belongs to Hollywood =='Totally holly crap, it destroy the characters of Riyoko Ikeda sensei. Especially Oscar, my idol, with girly outfit that I have no idea how she can survive in the army like that. They should choose another actress who look more like man and have strong personality. Moreover, Oscar's characteristic is broken 100% in this live action. When her father slapped her for disobeying the royal order, she slapped him back. OMG how a daughter can do this to her own father, even if he is doing the wrong thing??????????? Besides that, the scene with Andre in 12h July 1789 is unacceptable, and the worst thing is that : Oscar doesn't lead French people to attack Bastile Prison like manga, how pity !!! The ending is Andre comes out to see the revolution then he is shot and die????? Next thing is Oscar searches for him in the crowd without knowing that he is death???????????????? I just like what sh*t I just watch and I am really gonna angry for the description of this movie =='Really disappointed for a Hollywood production and it deserves a Golden Raspberry Awards :| Cannot understand why it has rate of 6.3 :|

I've finally had the chance to watch Jaques Demy's movie - Lady Oscar. I waited so long to see it and i put so much enthusiasm on it that i almost can't bear the disappointment. As a big fan of Ryoko Ikeda, of "Berusaiyu no bara" and of the Japanese musical version of it, i have to confess: the movie HURT! The acting is so bad, the story is so cut, no fluidity between scenes ... and the end ... oh, that is really painful!!! Oscar is too cute ... no! better said: "sweet"... but OK. Marie Antoinette too stupid! Fersen .. where is Fersen??? So little appearance that i forgot he existed. Girodelle .. oh! ... disgusting! And was that brown haired girl really Rosalie? I think it was the opposite of her. The only character i can't comment on it, is Andre. He was (especially on the first part of the movie) ... he was Andree. He was human, real and acted well .. Pity he ended so stupid ... Everything in this movie have no meaning ... and some scenes are just ridiculous.

This film is an absolute joke. The acting is so horrible that I got up during the film and went to check IMDb to have some entertainment from all of the scathing reviews I was sure I would find... Well, the critics didn't even bother to review it and the only published review was from a person who is probably related to the director or the producer. This film is so bad, I'm sure 40 years from now it will be a cult film simply for its downright awful acting!
