Summary: ONE CLEVER MOVIE!!!!!!
Review: Ths movie is interesting and very clever with a maybe unintentional dry sense of humor which made it even better.All the actors were perfectly cast and Leo was excellent he made you hate him as louis but want to baby him as phillipe. you just get hooked and watch it over and over and over.Watch out for the bit when porthos walks to the barn naked and athos says."whats porthos doing""walking to the barn naked or so it would seem"aramis replies he trys to hang himself but Aramis sawed the beem it is sooooo halarious watch it no better buy it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: All for one, One for all..an excellent summary of living
Review: I will not impress with vocabulary, or spelling, or deny finding Dicaprio easy to watch. It is a movie full of heroes. I was reared on heroes, those who had courage to stand against odds and the majority. It is difficult to find that today. The slow motion of the prison charge, the murmured "Magnificent Valor" brought delicious chills to me, and misty eyes to my daughter. If you want the classics, read the books. An art not practiced currently.I have read the book long before Leonardo,and contary to opinion it was not swashbuckling nor exhilarating. It was prose with poetic phrasing. I found the movie a delight. It is hard to find heroes without dark undertints at present. It is refreshing when you do.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A very good film
Review: Not being a fan of DiCaprio, I still enjoyed this film. He was actually very good in this movie. Whoever casted for "The Man in the Iron Mask" did it to perfection. It is defintialy a great adaptation of Dumas' tale!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Look for it!
Review: Not a fan of DeCaprio at all. However, the other folks more than made up for my misgivings. John Malcovich has been better, but figuring out his lapses keeps me guessing. Seen the film 4 times already. That's why I decided to go ahead and purchase the thing. I'm too cheap to keep renting it. One of those kind of "good feeling" movies that makes me cheer every time. Watch it! It says a lot for you if you cheer too (and probably even more about you if you don't.)

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Why does everyone love this movie?
Review: I don't understand the appeal of this film.I cringed through the entire thing. Leonardo disappoints me more and more, the more I see him act. He was terrible in "Titanic." It is unfortunate how stardome has influenced his judgment choosing his films since "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" which was phenomenal. John Malchovick's performance was also a gargantuan let-down. He was desperately unconvincing as a loving father (he looked too young to be a father of a marraigable man, first of all) and his acting was so terrible you could have driven a semi through his lines. Leo was equally transparent in his character development, not to mention, completely unappealing physically. Get the boy a comb.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: there is more of my to love than a crown
Review: I think this movie was a really cool story but it was not all real but what made it worth seeing was Leonardo DiCaprio.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Surprisingly good
Review: For the longest time I didn't want to see this for due to the fact that Leonardo diCaprio was in it, and I personally do not care for him at all. But at a friend's urging to see it because of the talents of Byrne, Irons, and Malkovich I gave in. The results were I was surprised at how well the film turned out. All four Musketeers were wonderful, but especially Byrne and Irons as D'Artagnan and Aramis repectfully gave brilliant performances. The film had it all: romance, angst, swashbuckling, and gorgeous men with long hair and swords. My only fault with the film was diCaprio, he was not playing Louis or Phillipe, but diCaprio. His performance made me cringe, but I managed for the most part ignore him and focus, on what I considered the main characters, the Musketeers.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A WONDERFUL Movie
Review: I LOVED this movie.I not saying this because Leonardo was in it,I'm saying it because of the Musketeers.I read most of Dumas's books and I'm only eleven so I know much about the Musketeers and their history, so this mavie was very captivating.I like the romance between the Queen Mother, Anne of Austria, and the captian of the King's Musketeers, D'Artagnan. i liked how D'Artagnan treated her like a human, not like King Louis treated his " mistresses". I liked the whole thing with the rose and the scene in the chapel. The end was surprising and very sad. The acting was also good ,even though Porthos was the only one whose accent was French, because his actor was a Frenchman. The other's had a slight accent, but they were English actors. Leonardo didn't have ANY accent at all.??Isn't a French King surposed to have a French accent?? I always thought so.There was very good acting in movie, but I must say that Leonardo did a better job as Philippe then as Louis.I also must say i have a favorite character, the same as in the books,D'Artagnan.I give credit to Gabriel Byrne, the man who played D'Artagnan, because it had to be hard to look sad all the time. THIS MOVIE WAS ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES I SEEN and I have seen many movies!!!!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I like this movie but not because of Leo
Review: I have never really liked Leonardo DeCaprio but I loved this movie. The men who play the Three Musketeers are wonderful and I love the romance between D'artagnean and the Queen Mother. Just ignore Leonardo DeCaprio and you'll be fine watching this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very good adaption of a great book
Review: All those who read the original book by Alexandre Dumas should relize that if they followed the book they would have ran off most of the young people in the nation. They changed the ending in pretty much the same way Disney has done to all of their animated features. The acting was very well done and the atmosphere was perfect for a setting back in the time of the Musketeers. Great acting and special effects make this a very enjoyable Dumas movie
