Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Luecarou What begins as a feel-good-human-interest story turns into a mystery, then a tragedy, and ultimately an outrage.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

cmp_gr I wonder who gives the right to any writers, directors, producers, or whatever to make an ass out of one of the ever most beloved classic novels? What do they want to show/do destroying the beautiful original by inserting airships and much other modern nonsense, they do not fit in? The famous and by many generations beloved novel by Alexandre Dumas pere, presented in a new unacceptable way, that makes it laughably unrecognizable.My vote 2/10.

blrnani Many people have a reverence for these classic Dumas works and imho the definitive rendition was the David Lean series. Consequently, they will find the title of this hodgepodge of a film rather misleading, as it only provides a very loose framework to hang the stories on. I say 'stories' because there are several going on simultaneously, which makes things a bit confusing, especially as the logic that is supposed to hold such things together too often gets jettisoned. First of all, this is a 'director's wife' vehicle, so Mila Jovovitch gets to do her Resident Evil tricks in a 17thC context. But it is also a teen hearthrob vehicle for Logan Lerman, so we get all the brash arrogance one would expect from the leading figure in a high-school play. And then there's the HK martial arts, Matrix and PotC action that is the dominant feature of the film. The cast is actually good, but somewhat wasted as they are basically connecting elements to keep the action flowing. Anyway, I think if one is forewarned that this film is a comedy that merely uses the subject matter as a loose structure, much as the Monty Python team used the Arthurian legend and the Bible, then it will be far more enjoyable than expecting another rendering of the Three Musketeers story. Whether you can get round the technological abuses is another matter - as it takes us into Connecticut Yankee territory. I really don't see where they can go from that closing sequence, as it would suggest a complete rewriting of European history, or a sudden updating to a WWII-type scenario, with the musketeers leading French resistance to the hated British occupying power (who consider that they're merely taking back the Norman territories that were stolen from them).

K B I will never understand the sick urge that Hollywood producers have, to twist the classic tales that everyone loved in their childhood into unrecognizable and nonsensical messes that are destined to be forgettable at best. So many millions squandered, so many work hours, only to result in something that looks so haphazard. Mediocre visual effects and visually pleasing settings (alas historically inaccurate) can not redeem the abysmal writing of the dialogues, the terribly developed and frankly annoying characters and the overall school- play quality of acting. Some rhetorical questions: Could they have chosen someone more insignificant as d'Artagnan? Is the purpose of Orlando Bloom's hairdo to hurt our eyes or terminate his career? Was the king of France a girl with mustache?Alternative title: "a book-lover's nightmare"

jimbo-53-186511 In some ways this film can be seen as being enjoyable in a tongue-in-cheek, goofy, 'not to be taken seriously' type way, but it's the wait that's involved in getting there that is likely to be a make or break aspect for the audience....I must admit that I'm not overly-familiar with the source material here so wasn't really sure what to expect; however I was slightly disappointed with the actual structure of this film. Here, we have a first half which seemed to have very little going on and seemed to exist only as a long-winded way of introducing D'Artagnan. There are some amusing moments to be found in this set-up, but for me it felt that there was far too much unnecessary padding to what is essentially a fairly simple story.Given that it was slow in building itself up I hoped that my patience would be rewarded by some fantastic swashbuckling action and impressive fight sequences and once again I left feeling slightly disappointed. True, there are some fight sequences and some swashbuckling, but not enough - maybe my expectations were too high, but I just found that the film was rather weak as both an action film and as a story. I also thought that the ending was rather poor as well.Thankfully the film does benefit from strong camaraderie between the principal cast and this does help to carry the film through some of the duller moments and makes it feel slightly better than it should be - as D'Artagnan Lerman brings a sort of cheeky charm to the film and also brings some much needed fun. The likes of MacFadyen, Stevenson and Evans also work their roles well too and all 4 of these players are what really hold this film together.My thoughts on this version of The Three Musketeers is that it was entertaining in spots with the principal cast making it quite fun to watch at times. However, I thought it was a little on the slow side and also thought it would be more action-packed. For those reasons I found it a little disappointing overall.
