All For One.... And One Too Many
Been there, done that."The Musketeer" follows the same, basic story that all of its predecessors have already done. Sadly, most better them are better than this one.But there are two saving graces for this movie. First is Justin Chambers, who stars as D'Artagnan. There is a freshness that Mr. Chambers brings to the movie, which is more obvious when compared to the staleness that is the rest of the movie. The second saving grace is the choreography of the fight scenes. Fight choreographer Xiong Xin Xin, of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" fame, brings a fluidic movement to D'Artagnan's fight scenes.Feel free to rent this movie once. The fight scenes and Justin Chambers will make it worth it. But don't add it to your collection until you've seen it first, because chances are that this movie would only end up serving as a doorstop.
