Cassandra

Cassandra has a visually appealing retro setting and is well-executed from a cinematographic perspective. The production design and atmosphere are certainly highlights.

Unfortunately, the series is dragged down by exhausting and unrealistic dialogue. The acting is also quite poor, with the all-too-familiar overacting that many German actors tend to deliver. As a German myself, I found it difficult to watch at times.

The way the story unfolds feels forced and unnatural. The fact that no one believes the mother and instead sympathizes with the house AI to an almost absurd extent is simply unrealistic. The plot, dialogues, and many sequences feel artificial and detached from reality, making it hard to stay engaged.

A missed opportunity, given the strong visual potential.
