Too many spices is the fair conclusion about an episode interested by atmosphere ( the presence of Johann Strauss and Franz Liszt is a good example ) but lost, at the first sight, in sensational , ignoring the historical accuracy.
The scenes of party with accent of soft orgy is the basic mistake, for me, of the episode. The second , the unfair portrait of Maximilian and the Crimean war very supperficial reflected ( yes, the map seems a correct one ).
It seems a spiced fairy tale and for this, the recent Sissi seems better than Die Kaiserin . But, sure, the indulgence is useful. It is only the second episode. So, the hope is not exactly lost.
