D'Artanyan i tri mushketyora

I love this movie. Ever since I was a kid in Russia, I enjoyed watching this movie. Now, I really want to own a copy but can't find it anywhere. Although I am not a fan of musicals, the songs from this movie really take me back to the fun times of childhood. I haven't met a person yet who hasn't enjoyed this movie. It is a classic, and other Musketeer movies don't match it.

I am not a huge fan of musical comedies, musical action films or musical romances, and this movie is all of it in one. One should expect the characters to break into a song at any time during the movie as it is basically a filmed operette, loosely wrapped around the famous novel by Alexandre Dumas. Think 'The King and I' in Russian. Nothing unusual, however, for many Russian movies of the time. Songs were probably the only and the best sound effect available to Soviet directors back then.

However, in this particular movie everything fits in pretty nicely. Boyarsky's good looks (I dare anyone to find a better D'Artagnan in any film), Tabakov's silliness as Louis XIII, even Terekhova's acting as Milady. Credit is due to Yungvald-Khilkevich for putting it all together. The songs, written just for the movie, fit perfectly into the plot, and have become Russian classics, instantly recognized by anyone even now, 20 years later (pun intended).

The action sequences are quite good, the cinematography is beautiful, Porthos is lovable, Constance is a knockout. What else do you want from a musketeer movie?

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.

To put it simple, from my point of view this is the best A.Duma's / 3 Musketeers adaptation on screen ever, of course if you like musical.

This movie seamlessly blends the action and adventure of historical movies, with great spirit of classic 'D'Artagnan's ' tale and great, great taste of music and songs which blend in.

You get a movie with unexpectedly fresh and charming characters, lots of fun and humor and great songs.

This is one of the best movies of the Russian 'Soviet' era.

Of course a non-Russian speaking person (even with subtitles) would be hard to get a full at this movie, but the only with I have is that somebody actually do release this on DVD with English dubbing and subtitles.

People who love music movies and movies like ORIGINAL CHARLIE AND CHOC FACTORY etc - most probably be able to enjoy it....

Really a cult classic.

This is one of the best movies I've ever seen. I suppose that's the very best way to put it.

The Three Musketeers is about a young man who sets out to earn his living as a musketeer. At the very beginning his letter of recommendation is stolen by a cardinal's "employee" and D'Argtagnan can't become a musketeer immediately. He meets three friends and has many adventures.

This movie is amazing. There's lots of laughter and excitement. The actors are phenomenal. I love this movie and I've seen it more than 30 times. If you're going to watch something, watch this.
