Clarisse Loughrey Flicks (AU, NZ, UK) 04/03/2025
There should be even more room to revel in that misery. Yet, it’s hard to grasp much of that feeling when the series seems far more concerned with pillars of Italian excellence, rich food and intimidatingly beautiful women. Go to Full Review

The Leopard is just ludicrously luxe. Go to Full Review

4/5
As testaments to the flux of history go, The Leopard manages to be beautiful, engaging and suitably elegiac. Go to Full Review

8/10
A remake of Lucino Visconti's classic film, this stunning, if slow-paced period/political drama explores themes of power, romance, immorality and societal change - as General; Garibaldi's army from the North invades Sicily in its unification of Italy. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
Overall, this newest rendition of Tomasi di Lampedusa’s book ends up feeling like a less well-made version of the original adaptation. Go to Full Review
Weiting Liu Common Sense Media 03/11/2025
It's a handsomely made adaptation that will likely satisfy fans of the novel, but for those seeking something truly gripping or revelatory, it falls just short. Go to Full Review

Alexsander F @Aelxs Feb 25 Obra-prima moderna! See more Julie M @Juliejmckee Feb 2 Excellent, very accurate period costumes. The dubbing into English impressive. The actors are all excellent. This series is beautifully filmed and extremely well done. See more Edward L @Glyndower Oct 28 Excellent adaptation of the famous novel spoilt only by the casting of a rather unfortunate looking actress as Concetta. See more Junji Ito's G @RT07784604 Oct 11 Not bad, some scenes were boring and Deva Cassel needs acting lessons. See more Nick C @RT67914722 Aug 2 I was expecting more about the Garibaldini, but this romance novel dramatization held my interest enough to get me through the last episode. The setting and scenery are worth the watch. See more Rosey R @Rosey26 Jul 1 Beautiful cinematography. Story was new to me. Even with last 2 episodes being the slowest, I enjoyed it overall.
