Les Trois mousquetaires

When i saw James Cosmo was in this, i felt i had to watch it, as he's generally in decent films.

After 10 minutes i wanted to turn off.

Absolutely no offence to the actor who portrays D'artagnan, but... since when was he Black? This is an actual historical character. D'artagnan was indeed head of the King's guard (Louis XIV), and was very much a White Frenchman.

Why is it acceptable to 'race swap' one way, but frowned up, and seen as one of the worst 'hate crimes' imaginable to even think about 'race swapping' the other way? It's ridiculous.

Then we have Milady as an Asian Woman... Oh well.

So moving on from these issues, we have another problem. The acting is beyond amateurish, the script obviously doesn't help, as that itself is brutal.

I wanted to like this, as i love the story, and i love any adaptation i've seen. This is truly awful.

As others have suggested. Don't watch this, walk away, find any other adaptation to watch. This is dire.

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.

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.

Total Rubbish, the worst Musketeers Movie of ALL TIME!

It must have been given a £5 budget and that included the actors wages!

The boat scene, where it supposedly overturned was beyond ridiculous, that boat never went in the water, it wasn't deeper than a foot at it deepest! It was no more than a shallow stream!

This was the turn off point, I love movies and always look for something positive, this was very poor.

My first 1 rating.

Looking at some of the other reviews, I'm guessing this movie won't be turning up in many dvd collections, it certainly won't be showing up in mine!

'All for One and One for All!

D'Artagnan's character development was so compelling that it made the entire film hard to stomach. Watching a character who should've met an early demise, survive was painful. Knowing so many amazing films and TV shows have been carefully and lovingly created only to never make it to air, yet this did, hurt me to my very soul. It's a brain-cell drainer; better options exist.

This might be the strongest case for stronger copyright protection. Alexander Dumas created a masterpiece and it was reduced to this.

I really don't like to mock work but it just felt so pedestrian. Granted Locations, Lighting, Camera, Art, Costume, HMU, and the behind the stage did a good job making what they could from what they had.
