D'Artanyan i tri mushketyora

I was 4 when I saw this movie (or should I say serie) for the first time. I still watch it, after 20 years. The songs are great, and brings a little extra to it. I love the characters, I compare every other movie of the three musketeers with this one. No-one beats it. I think it´s the best and most well made movie of this famous book.

It's a great movie. And of course it's a bit old-fashioned for nowadays. But I really, really love it. And I haven't seen better Three Musketeers movie up till now. Though I've seen a lot. Music, songs, lyrics, actors, director - everything is just fitting greatly together to make it a really classic movie which will be still loved after so many years. And the songs they still sing and everybody, literally everybody in Russia knows the songs and even the quotes by heart. It is sometimes funny and sometimes really romantic and sometimes a bit naive film. And its surely worthwhile to watch! Boyarski (D'Artagnian) still lives in St. Petersburg and still terribly popular, especially for his role in this movie. I've seen him lately walking on the bank of Moika river - in black long coat and a black huge hat... and still with his mustache...

It IS the best screening of Dumas's novel so far. Russians have a certain decency and respect to classic masterpieces and this piece of work does not fail this rule. A strong emphasis on the friendship between the musketeers and a strong sense of honor that bears the marks of pure hearts , both enough to provide the power to fight and the power to love. It is a must see, especially since I don't believe the Hollywood or any other cinema school for that matter is able to come with a better mise-en-scene.

I was somehow forced to write down this review as the latest one that I saw here was an insult to the art behind this movie. I'm sick and tired of watching the yearly laboring pains of classic stories depictions. This story has no need to be put into the present days , no need for gang dialogues, no need for the Hollywood cliché.

It is one of the few most screened stories of the history and anyone mocking its epic should feel that mockery turning against him a thousand times stronger.

This particular movie, unlike many others of its kind, shows a deep and long lasting friendship, respect and love. I have seen this movie countless times and undoubtedly will watch it again. This movie doesn't age. Its characters stay with you forever. After seeing this version of "The Three Musketeers" I cannot watch any other. They all seem to lack the most imprtant thing, the one that the author wrote the book about - friendship. Most movies of this kind concentrate on the fighting and numerous stunts. I read "The Three Musketeers" and all the books that followed it numerous times. It makes me laugh when I watch American version of this movie. In "D'Artanyan" the cast is superb. The actors match their characters perfectly. The storyline follows the book, which is what I can't say about Anerican version. Growing up, my friends and I dreamed of meeting such D'Artanyan some day.... The movie was partly shot in the city where I used to live and it's true-streets became dead when the movie was shown. The next day, kids in school tried to re-enact the scenes. This movie relates the life in those times, just like the book.

The Russians know how to adapt Alexandre Dumas' books very well, they know even better than Hollwyood. Your writers are better. Unlike The Three Musketeers (1993 and 2011), The Musketeer (2001), this is a film that has a good script and that adapts the story very well. Like Uznik zamka if (1988) it is a much better adaptation of the count of monte Cristo, different from the 1922, 1934 and 2002 versions made by hollywood with mediocre scripts.
