The Musketeer (2001)
Must see for Musketeer fans
I don't normally review but felt this movie needed some kind words. It is way better than 4.3.
This movie has a more "authentic" feel (think Robin Hood: Prince of thieves) than "Hollywood" (Disney's Three Musketeers).
The movie has a good balance of stunts, plot, humor, and romance- and this is a difficult balance to strike. One thing I particularly liked was the women had bigger parts in relation to moving the plot, and the romance was given more attention then in other Musketeer movies I've seen.
I normally am not very into stunts, but I found the stunts in this movie excellent. They didn't last too long (I am not a fan of thirty-minute battle scenes) and they were new and different from other stunts I've seen. Maybe they were a little over the top and in excess, but I enjoyed them.
This movie could have benefited from deeper character development (I didn't feel as connected to the characters as I could) and better music (the music was okay but the music in Disney's Three Musketeers can't be beat).
I would watch it again or even buy it
if you enjoy the Musketeer themed movies than this is a must see.
