I'm reviewing this from it's place as a piece of musical theater brought to film, not from a historical or Biblical perspective.
In doing so, I thought it was very well done. It's a creation of the 70's and everything in this movie is reflective of that. Some of the performers did compromise a bit of their vocal talent for passionate acting and some compromised passionate acting to show off their vocal talents, but I thought it managed to balance out and make for an enjoyable film experience.
Needless to say, the music is wonderful, the lyrics timeless, it's doubtlessly retro but it's a good kind of retro.

Like the vast majority of films based on books, this one certainly takes advantage of it's creative license and creates something very unlike what Dumas had intended when he penned his story. Regardless, this movie is absolutely wonderful and tragically underrated.
This is a lengthy movie that takes full advantage of every minute to create atmosphere, character development, and the delightful intricacies of a dark tale of revenge and justice.
I won't say that all of the performances were top-notch necessarily, but the performances of the lead protagonist and antagonist are almost sublime in their grim determination and passion for their respective character's roles and many of the other characters are portrayed with excellent skill and, in some cases, flawless comedic timing.
Visually, it's a breathtaking movie. The costumes, the sets, it's all flawlessly composed to be one of the most appealing movies out there. Absolutely give this a try! Excellent, excellent example of attentive film making.
