The Fourth Musketeer

When the opening credits showed a nice engraving of an 18th Century Gentleman I thought we weren't in for a gem - sadly I was right.

The sets and the set dressing are superb and as good as you are going to get but the positives stop there. The script, directing and acting are all so amateur that you would get better from the local 'AmDram'. The armourer was a complete joke, as was the fight director.

Given how many times the 'based on Alexandre Dumas' novel' has been made how is it still possible to get EVERYTHING so very wrong - even, in this case, the timeline!

If you want a musketeers movie you still can't beat the Richard Lester version. But there are other versions that are quite watchable - this is not.

Really, just don't bother, you'll never get that part of your life back. Watch some paint dry, it would be more entertaining...

This movie promised so much but ultimately disappoints.

Very poorly choreographed fight scenes. Bad direction. Average acting.

Its a very slow film that doesn't actually go anywhere. It is nowhere near as good as any single episode of the TV show from 2014 to 2016. These were very well written and directed and had top quality fight scenes. Obviously the director of this movie did no research before creating this mess!

What a waste of a budget and my time!

I watched this because the high rating but quickly found it was a stacked deck. They used every trick in the book to make it look bigger, such as using artistic drawings for the cut scenes, but I still think they made the complete movie with just 4 sets. It doesn't matter because the acting matched the sets, small and uninspired. Finally, the script. It was horrible, just horrible. Do not watch this, ever, find an old movie and be happy.

Acting and producción.

Very poor in all spects.

Both in production and acting. The title is the perfect hook for thousands of options but they limit the entire movie to closed spaces that make this movie worthy of a school play. Definitely a waste of time.

So slow and boring. Truncated fight scenes and re tells a story we all know without bringing anything new. Really boring. When it ended it felt like I had watched a preview and the real film was about to begin. Don't waste your time watching it, buying it or renting it.
