All this nonsense would be news to Dumas, whose grave is surely spinning as his musketeers - sucked dry of high drama and low wit - go kicking and screaming into the wonderful world of Disney.

[A] sound adaptation of the famous tale, hewing closely to the story and its buddy aspect.

| Original Score: C | Nov 6, 2009

Those who have never seen a previous "Musketeers" adaptation or a truly exciting Hollywood adventure in the grand style may be swept along, but the mechanical, paint-by-numbers feel of this outing is too evident to ignore.

Conceived frankly as a product, complete with hit-to-be theme song over the closing credits, this adventure film cares less about storytelling than about keeping the Musketeers' feathered hats on straight whenever they go galloping.

It must have been great fun to make it (what young actor doesn't want to dash around on horseback and engage in swashbuckling swordfights?), but it's not that much fun to watch. It's all sound and energy, without plan or meaning.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 1, 2000

It has the main characters and a hint of the idea but it's all go-to-hell fun from there.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 1, 2000

Even with all the leggings and horses and medieval gear, Walt Disney's "The Three Musketeers" looks more like a beach-party movie than an adaptation of a beloved classic.
