I've also seen "Mickey, Donald, Goofy: The Three Musketeers", which is great fun.JM1999https://www.blogger.com/profile/18021172040137455414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5782277794223039496.post-9882758981377128552016-06-19T19:43:58.371-07:002016-06-19T19:43:58.371-07:00Obviously, you've enjoyed many different versi...Obviously, you've enjoyed many different versions of the story over the years.Mark Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11567392254011373198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5782277794223039496.post-45031656393466808642016-06-11T14:45:16.098-07:002016-06-11T14:45:16.098-07:00The movie was actually quite good i think.

The 70's dualogy (2 movies) was the truest to the book (albeit with Richard Lester's typical humour thrown in), but since you didn't read the book, you wouldn't know how much adultery and overall womanising our "heroes" do! (Constance was married, and yet D'Artnanen still wooed her which was "perfectly acceptable")<br /><br />I think the only thing that I didn't like about the Disney film was the deviations from the book (not the removing of the immorality, but things like the Cardinal planning to remove the King, and the disbanding of the Musketeers-I always took that to be kind of like the hunting down of the Jedi Knights). Still, as you say, the Disney film is a nice little package that can be enjoyed by all.<br /><br />***I personally thought the scene of the cardinal killing the tortured prisoner who begged for mercy in the name of God to be a bit too sadistic for the film though***Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08582845368766619225noreply@blogger.com
