An average movie

Honestly, I’m rather surprised that so few people have rated this movie. I mean, don’t misunderstand me, I don’t care much about this franchise but I always thought they were very much loved. Anyway, my wife is a die-hard fan so she bought the dvd box and, obviously, I had to watch those flicks with her. At first, I thought it would be completely awful but, to be honest, the first installment was not bad at all. I mean, I wasn’t blown away either but I could see its appeal and why it was so popular. This 2nd installment was also actually quit decent. I mean, the whole thing was still rather sappy and completely predictable, but it was watchable and I was actually rather entertained throughout the whole thing. Still, at this point, the whole concept really started to grow thin on me and the following installment was really boring and tedious to watch. Apparently, they were even planning to make a 4rth movie but Romy Schneider refused to play the title character any longer. Good for her! To conclude, obviously I wasn’t the target audience for this movie but, I have to admit it, it was not bad at all and I guess it is worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
