noteworthy action, but still a drag, 31 May 2002

This movie is such a bastardization of Dumas' novel that it's hard to stomach. The action was okay, but overdone for the period that the movie represents. And of course, the book follows D'Artagnan and his fellowship with the 3 musketeers, but this focused on D'Artagnan alone, with the others in the background. Not to mention that the story didn't follow squat with the book. Now, I understand Hollywood does this to books, but if the story were closer to the novel, it would have worked so much better. If your a Dumas fan, watch the disney version - it's a lot better.
