This exciting new big budget adaptation brings Alexander Dumas’ classic story to the big screen in two parts. In this first part, D’Artagnan travels to Paris in the hope of becoming one of King Louis XIII’s Musketeers. Although turned away, it is not long before D’Artagnan finds himself fighting along-side the infamous musketeers Athos, Porthos and Aramis after a plot against the King and Queen is uncovered.
Featuring a stellar cast, breathless action sequences and swashbuckling stunts, The Three Musketeers: D’Artagnan is a truly entertaining film, filled with intrigue, humour and romance. And with part two coming early next year, there isn’t long to wait to discover whether our heroes can finally overcome the evil Cardinal Richelieu.
“★ ★ ★ ★ This is a lavishly produced, very enjoyable innocent pleasure.”
– Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
“★ ★ ★ ★ It may be an over-filmed story set 400 years ago, but this version feels bracingly fresh.
… It’s also so enjoyable that the cliffhanger ending leaves us impatient for Part 2.”
– Rich Cline, Shadows on the Wall
