With excitement i waited to see the final part of the Angelique adventures. But it was somewhat boring and for that is in the last place of the whole series. Having read the books, i know that it could have been easily full of action and the end itself should have been better. And what about their encounter with their children? If the director was not determined for movie to be all about harem, there was a place to make a decent end. Not everything should be left to one's imagination.

When I think about the movies as a whole, I really liked it and some actors were really, really good (f.e. Desgraz). Locations were beautiful and were, more or less, the same as I was imagining while reading the books. I think I will read the books again :)

Peyrac follows the vessel of the pirates who abducted his beloved Angélique, but finds that she is not board of that ship anymore. She is in the hands of the slave trader who had lost the auction for her, decided to steal her if he can't buy her, then the trader passes her on to the sultan's harem. Now Peyrac cannot openly sail into the port of Algiers with the whole crew, so he goes there alone, disguised as a galley slave, hoping to free Angélique somehow. But he finds that she is well guarded and already on her way across the desert... never to return?

Colorful oriental adventure, basically worth watching and a good final part of the series. But the problem is the second third of the movie. The first 30 minutes were exciting, but in the next 30 minutes nothing is happening. Angélique sits in the harem, waiting either for the sultan or Peyrac to appear. You have to sit through 30 minutes, too, until in the last half hour, the action starts to move again. I voted 8/6/7/6/6 for the 5 movies of the series. Actors Mercier and Hossein continued their co-operation with a western, 'Cemetary Without Crosses', but the Angélique series was finished, probably at the right time before it became tiresome.

Lots more getting capture and then escaping, and just yeah basically, the Sultan is in charge of some desert palace and pretty much just yeah. Careful of topless smut scene of Angelique getting whipped. The buildup to the Sultan meet is like a lot of talk about him that he is made to be a big deal, but his palace looks just kinda not different from like any other house and the outside, it is like one desert palace in the middle of a desert, seems like a governor level person. Algiers just gains their independence from France so this aftermath is definitely the reason for that setting.
