This version of The Three Musketeers is incredibly popular and I thought it would be a nice palette cleanser after the version I watched earlier this week. And sadly, it didn’t do anything for me.

The Three Musketeers (2011) – Paul W.S. Anderson
A fantastic cast, a truly horrible film, that only bares a passing resemblance to the classic novel by Alexander Dumas. And that’s unfortunate, because as I said, fantastic cast.

It’s just a joy, and the 1948 version is in much the same vein as Gene Kelly brings the classic role of D’Artagnan to life in this energetic and light-hearted take on Alexandre Dumas’ classic…
