| ♥♥♥♥♥ | The Three What??? |
| I give this DVD 1 star because it is impossible to give it less.
This movie version of the Three Musketeers compares to the book written by Alexander Dumas in the same way Broadway show Cats compares to the 1957 movie The Ten Commandments. If you want a somewhat decent comedy then I can recommend it, though not very highly. If however, you want to know something of the story Dumas wrote then please either buy the book and let someone else waste their money on this DVD or, If you do want a movie of this story then I can recommend the dual DVD of the Three/Four Musketeers starring Michael York/Oliver Reed/Raquel Welsh is much, much closer to the written work. Probably one of the more glaring examples is that this DVD contains a plot by Cardinal Richelieu to assassinate the King on his 16th birthday. In the book Dumas wrote the King and Queen were in their thirties, and there was no assassination plot at all, although the Cardinal was trying to discredit the Queen by exposing a love affair between her and the English Duke of Buckingham - a rather one sided thing not readily returned by the Queen. |
