Truly Dreadful Film

Really Surprised!

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

An ambitious film that is never brilliant or terrible. There are some incredible scenes with very good photography. From an action adventure perspective, it was quite fulfilling. (Pity about the silly humor and character arrogance).

I wonder who gives the right to any writers, directors, producers, or whatever to make an ass out of one of the ever most beloved classic novels? What do they want to show/do destroying the beautiful original by inserting airships and much other modern nonsense, they do not fit in? The famous and by many generations beloved novel by Alexandre Dumas pere, presented in a new unacceptable way, that makes it laughably unrecognizable.My vote 2/10.

This is really a poor movie. Don't waste your time on this movie....

The Three Musketeers (2011): Dir: Paul W.S. Anderson / Cast: Logan Lerman, Milla Jovovich, Orlando Bloom, Christoph Waltz, Gabriella Wilde: A surprisingly entertaining version of a story that has been exhausted through many terrible releases. Director Paul W.S. Anderson has made many stupid films such as Soldier and Event Horizon but here he presents the famed characters as a token of grand entertainment. Problem is that the title fails since there seems to be four or five Musketeers here as oppose to the usual. Lerman Logan is the young new edition whose father was a Musketeer and he seeks the same reputation. He gets his wish when several misunderstandings lead to a planned confrontation, which fuses into beating up several armed guards. They are arrested and end up on a quest involving airship blueprints and a stolen necklace. Logan fares well as the young Musketeer out to prove himself as well as place himself within the midst of danger and exhilarating sword action. Milla Jovovich steals scenes as a female who betrays the Musketeers after a theft. She is faced with an effective situation aboard an airship that seems too fatal until the closing scene. Orlando Bloom is good as villain Buckingham who outsmarts the Musketeers with Jovovich's betrayal but his defeat bears some humour. Gabriella Wilde plays Logan's romantic other who attempts to warn him of the odds against him. The screenplay is entertaining without being too action oriented, yet celebrating the special effects. Do not expect a provocative writing but do expect fun filled pointless entertainment. Score: 8 / 10
