Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

An all-star cast and a total flop. I can only imagine the director was dead drunk when filming or deliberately made a shoddy movie... maybe both. TBH I watched the movie to completion in the hopes Mads Mikkelsen would actually run-through Logan Lerman and spare the world his complete lack of acting in future movies. But I shouldn't be too hard on Lerman, I didn't find most of the acting in this travesty worth a plugged nickel ('most' meaning 99.9% of this debacle).I'm now going to give myself a lobotomy, watch the version with Sutherland, Sheen, Platt, and the awesome Michael Wincott, and hope nothing this ridiculously awful will ever be made again.

Let's put aside the fact that it doesn't follow the original message of the story or, you know, the story itself. It can be forgiven for that, as well as asinine elements like Milady surviving and the Musketeers deciding that the best way to forestall a war between France and England was to blow up the Duke of Buckingham's house. The high production value adds it's part to make it at least visually interesting. The continued appearance of familiar faces will make you say "oh, it's so-and-so", which is just about the most fun you'll have all movie. The fatal flaw of this film is, without a doubt, the script. It is so cliché and modernized that I amused myself by guessing what line would come next and was right an unnerving amount of the time. The jokes all fell flat, the Mission Impossible style of action made me want to cry, and it was clear that the actors were rushing their way through the lines as quickly as possible to collect their money. It made me smile that someone actually got paid to write this script, and then whoever played Constance got paid to look like she was reading off of cue cards every time she was on screen. Let's talk about the actors, none of whom are French or bothered to try for a French accent. Watching the good guys was like watching paint dry. The Musketeers, who are all good actors, looked bored to tears, and while that might have worked for a time due to the rut their characters are in, it soon became clear that Matthew MacFayden's brain was taking a nap while he let his deep vocal chords say the lines, hoping the baritone would cover the necessary bases. Luke Evans did his hair in a mirror and knew that that would be enough to keep girls watching, so he didn't even bother. Ray Stevenson had the most charisma, and so predictably got the least screen time. Logan Lerman tried, but seemed more like he needed to go back to high school than one of the greatest swordsmen in France. I already discussed whatever Constance was supposed to me. A mannequin, perhaps. It seemed that the King and Queen had the only real character and heart in the entire film, which is unfortunate because she is barely in it and he is a dunce.Oh also there is a character who is supposed to be comic relief played by James Corden. Casting Oscar winners and fan favorite as villains almost guaranteed a complete overshadowing of the heroes, though this didn't make them exponentially more interesting. Christoph Waltz is good enough that he would have to try to fail, but he clearly regretted buying whatever it was that necessitated the salary of this movie. Milla Jovovich pretty much just did what she does every movie, which is not always a plus. Mads Mikkelsen gets a shout out for at least trying to do a good job despite awful lines and zero character development, and per the usual Mads, succeeding very well. At least he looked cool and managed to deliver his lines with a straight face and a certain amount of menace. I do feel that he broke character at the time of his ridiculous death, where I could have sworn that he was visibly relieved at finally being able to leave this travesty of a film. Orlando Bloom alone gets full stars as being the only person, including the audience, having any fun, and having a lot of it. Bottom line is, unless you need a really good laugh, this is all Redbox has to offer or you're a big enough Bloom or Mikkelsen fan that you want to see them as another cool minor character, skip this one.

Never ever listen to a critic. Loved the movie. Pretty decent screenplay, classic direction and excellent cast. Christopher Waltz adds good humor and evilness as Richelieu, Madds Mikkelsen is nice as the best swordsman in France, Count Rochefort; Gabriella was okay as Constance,Logan Lerman is great as the lead D'Artagnan. Athos,Porthos and Aramis were in good form with some funny side. But the real stand out was Milla Jovovich as Milady. Milady is sweet,cunning and evil. Its her outstanding portrayal of Milady that makes the film a drama classic and one of the best in its time. I advise everyone not to skip this outstanding jewel-in-the-case.

The three musketeers (2011) is a very poor version/re-telling of the classic three musketeers tale. This version is just poorly written, poorly acted, and to be completely honest, just boring. Logan Lerman was just alright as the lead, could've been a lot better though. Mila really was not good in her role, her performance seemed very wooden and phoned in. The action sequences were honestly just a big fat yawn, NOTHING to get excited about. And the script was just another huge yawn. Overall, this film just is a big yawn, a yawn as far as acting, as far as action sequences, as far as the dialogue/script as well. There really isn't all that much more to say about this movie, it's just boring as all get out, and will not keep your attention at all, so do yourself a favor and just skip this one all together. 1/10.
