Trivia:
Antonio Resines was attached to star as one of Alatriste's partners but was injured in a car accident few weeks before the shooting. However, he didn't withdraw and went to the set with one crutch. Finally, he appears in the last scene, as one of the Spanish soldiers in the battle of Rocroi.See more »

A good history film, 6 September 2006
Author: malaksabo from Spain

XVII Spanish Century is too rich to be told in two hours and a half, and that's what the film has tried. Perhaps too many characters that unable us to be identified with them. Alatriste is too many things in just one: the brave, the hard, the rebel, the lover, the good father... but far from us. I don't think it is Viggo's problem. If you read the novels you will find the same lack. Although we have expected more of this film, it would be unfair to say that this film is not worthy watching it. Actors are great, also wigs and customs (sometimes Spanish people cannot forget them without wigs!). Battles and photography are excellent. The films' atmosphere is much more better than other history films, the fog, the use of light. Go, watch it and make your opinion!
