I like a bit of a historical romp and this is another version along with it's predecessors of the characters from the classic book, this version is a little over the top with slow motion effects, airships (Leonardo Da Vinci blueprints (a botched mission to steal these at the beginning disbands the Musketeers) , damn good cast, implausible script and good action set pieces (a lot of CGI) but not enough of them...
D'Artagnan heads to Paris at the beginning to join the now disbanded Musketeers, he offends the three musketeers and duels are set, they fight the cardinals guards (good scene), get reinstated including D'Artagnan, try to stop a plot by Richelieu (Christopher Waltz) to take the throne, Milady (Milla Jovovich) is still double crossing everybody, Rochefort (Mads Mikklesen) is less a buffoon in this one, the French king and Queen are trying to fall in love with each other, Constance is the love interest, Planchet (David Corden) is back and still a slight buffoon, Buckingham (Orlando Bloom) is a scene stealing git and airships battling in the skies and I mean airships and of course the three musketeers themselves (Matthew Macfayden, Ray Stevenson and Luke Evans ....
...is it better than 1993 and 1973 versions, no just different!
People have been hard on this movie but Netflix it if you can and it's popcorn of the highest order, nothing else!
