Die drei Musketiere - Helden der Krone

Dear producers, actors and others

Listen, are you kidding me??? D'Artagnan was black ??? Stop it!!!

Every movie, every parable has its own story. Well, you can't indulge someone who needs it like that. D'Artagnan was never black, why film such a blatant lie??? The directors and producers just ruined this beautiful story. I am disgusted.

If you commissioned this movie, you should be ashamed. Because you ruined one of the best adventure stories ever. Please, for the future, before shooting any historical film, at least familiarize yourself with French history a little.

I can give you an idea for shooting a new film. Make a movie about the Apple company and let the main character Steve Jobs be black.

To be fair I only managed 45 mins of this movie, it may well get better in the second half....... But I doubt it. This is one of the worst films I've ever seen, the acting is so wooden and hammy, I've seen more effort and skill from a school nativity play. It seems like no one could be bothered to put any effort in and everything was filmed on the first take

The script, costumes and direction are somehow worse than the acting. None of the characters are likeable which could maybe just about help this movie. The character development is nonexistent, not helped by the fact nothing happened in the 45 mins I actually managed

Simply terrible.

The film is extremely difficult to watch due to Malachi Pullar-Latchman's portrayal of D'Artagnan, a 17th-century French character, which is a glaring undeniable case of cultural appropriation. His casting undermines the movie's credibility for anyone who values cultural integrity. It would be equally inappropriate to cast an African actor as a Jewish character from Israel, a white Canadian actor as a 17th-century African king, an Australian actor as a Chinese warrior, a Japanese actor as Romeo, or a southern American to play a North Korean soldier. Anyone with a basic understanding of 17th-century France would have recognized that this casting choice was misguided. Social integrity is truly tested when people begin to feel it's acceptable to appropriate other cultures. Clearly the filmmakers and actor felt this cultural violation is socially acceptable, so why not? While some may tolerate such decisions in the short term, roles filled by cultural appropriators will eventually be regarded with the same revulsion as blackface. Poor acting, poor writing, subpar cinematography, this film is a flat out disappointing and frustrating experience. Its lack of cultural authenticity and quality makes it not worth the time.

This was the worst movie I've seen in a long while. A shockingly bad script with wooden performances for most of the cast.

The actor who played the character of D'Artagnan was simply dreadful. Like reading the script for the first time. Not that he should shoulder all the blame. It was like every one of the actors were doing this in their lunchtime.

James Cosmo should feel ashamed that he got himself involved in the abject failure. His agent should be spoken to.

In the context of all the other 'muskateer' movies, this one is easily the worst. I'm surprised they got the money to make it.

Dreadful.

So so bad. Not even bearable playing in the background. Jarring dialogue delivered very badly. Such obviously cheap production values (looks like they filmed in the local park) Genuinely seen better local amateur dramatics. This is either someone's tax write off or they really hate the producers of the concurrent (but infinitely better) French language Musketeers film and are trying to get in its way. Please do not even bother to 'give it a go' - I watched the trailer and thought 'it can't be that bad'. It absolutely was - in fact, it was worse. The younger members of the cast really shouldn't have been exposed so badly on a national streamer - this crash and burn should have been on a local stage somewhere rather than preserved for posterity.
