THE Complete Musketeers
1 of 1 found this helpful A brilliant rendition of a great story. Filmed at the same time, but released a year apart (just like Lord of the Rings)this two film set is a must have for any serious collector of great re-watcheable films. The action is athletic, but realistic, and at times entertainingly comedic. I do not think this is as 'tongue in cheek' as is made out, on rereading the book for the fourth or fifth time I find it humerous, satirical, and that it doesn't take itself too seriously. The film does accentuate the lighter side, but suitably portrays the darker sides just as well. An all round rollicking good yarn!
