★★★★ The classic Alexandre Dumas novel gets a sumptuous retelling in this thrilling French-language adventure. Despite sword fights and duels at dawn, the action never supplants the characters, and there's a grand sweep to the film that gives it the feel of a bygone Hollywood epic. ~ Radio Times.
★★★★ A bold, violent, erotic update, this refreshingly modern psychological take on the classic tale of love and revenge justifies its three-hour running time. ~ The i.
★★★★ This latest take on the classic novel by Alexander Dumas turns the Count into a kind of 19th century Batman, replete with a vast fortune, a tricked-out mansion and a wealth of disguises. ~ The Scotsman.
★★★★ The old-fashioned swashbuckler goes from romance to revenge. Nothing here is remotely believable, which is the pleasure of it. Sit back and abandon yourself to the full weight of Dumas’s 18 volumes of derring-do, related not perfectly but with an infectious energy. ~ Financial Times.
