Rather slow and confusing

A six-reel production of the celebrated story of Cardinal Richelieu, following the lines of the famous play by that name. Murdock MacQuarrie appears as the Cardinal and Pauline Bush as Jule De Mortemar, his ward. Allan Dwan is the producer. There are some good characterizations in this and some that seemed inadequate. The plot is a highly interesting one toward the close, but the action in the first three reels is rather slow and confusing. This would have been much stronger as either a three or four reel production. Not a thoroughly artistic production, but one on which much care and thought have been expended. - The Moving Picture World, April 11, 1914
