In this highly entertaining, beautifully photographed rekindling of the classic French novel by Alexandre Dumas, director Kevin Reynolds choreographs a fantastic adventure replete with breathtaking scenery, fiery swashbuckling battles, lavish costumes, and, above all else, sweet revenge. In 19th-century Marseille, Edmond Danths (Jim Caviezel) is the optimistic but uneducated son of a sea captain. He cherishes his friendship with the son of a count, Mondego (Guy Pearce), and is deeply in love with his fiancie, Mercedes (Dagmara Dominczyk). Young Danths is so innocent and naive that it is positively shocking when Mondego turns on him, accusing him of treason, and having him sentenced to life in the dreary dungeon of Chateau D'If. Years of isolation and torture nearly defeat the revenge-thirsty Danths, but with the help of invaluable lessons from the Abbi Faria (Richard Harris), his luck slowly changes. An incredible prison break starts Danths on his way to a new life, and from there Reynolds' COUNT truly t...

GOD WILL BRING ME JUSTICE

Date of Review: Feb 2, 2002

The Bottom Line: Worth the price - even if you have read the classic. Despite a number of changes from the print version, The Count of Monte Cristo transitioned fairly well to screen.

Review: Yesterday I played hooky from work for a couple of hours. Mrs. G had been feeling low and I decided to squire her to an afternoon matinee. She had originally wanted to see A Beautiful Mind. She reconsidered such a dark choice and we decided to take...

The Count of Monte Cristo: Good looking actors and stunts

Date of Review: Oct 31, 2002

The Bottom Line: Very well done adaptation of a classic novel. Great fun for costume and fencing junkies, you won't be disappointed.

Review: Given what Hollywood did to the last adaptation of a Dumas' novel -- the horrible Man in the Iron Mask, -- I was pretty hesitant about sitting through this one, and decided to wait until I could watch it on dvd. Now I'm sorry I did not get to see...
