not history, but not bad
If you're looking for a documentary for a French History class,this isn't it. It wasn't intended to be an historical epic, trueto every fact. It IS a fun movie to watch, reminiscent of ErrolFlynn, Tyrone Power, or Jet Li. It has the feel of the swash-bucklers of past years, of more innocent times when good guysbeat bad guys, the hero got the girl, and everything was setright by the last frame.D'artagnan has panache, looks good, and isn't cynical. The villain is truly despicable. The heroine is beautiful and courageous. The action scenes are marvelously conceived and executed. So, put away the history book, get some popcorn, andENJOY!
