It is promoed as a Crouching Tiger of a Muskateer movie. It is based on The Three Muskateers and stars Mira Sorvino and Catherine Deneuve.

"It Stinks!"

The acting actually made me cringe and I turned it off about a third of the way through. The fight scenes were'nt even that good.

If you want something good in this genre, get a hold of "Brotherhood of the Wolf." Very well done.

Yes, the movie sucked, but the last fight on the ladders in the wine cellar was pretty cool. . .

Well, leave it to me to be the dissenting embodiment of bad taste!

I like "The Musketeer", although I couldn't in good conscience call it "good", more of a guilty pleasure.

In the same vein, "Brotherhood of the Wolf" is a good one, and I really loved "The Count of Monte Cristo", too.

It's okay Rob..I actually found it entertaining too. I also wouldn't call it "good," and fully understand why most people wouldn't like it, but I didn't feel my time was wasted like with certain other unmentionable films.
