I stoped watching this movie the moment when Cardinal Richelieu addressed the Queen (Ann of Spain) with words "Austria loss is our gain". I mean yeah she is from Habsburg dynasty but Spanish line not Austrian. If you want to make a movie the first thing you should do is to read a little about historical characters. Movie is bad. Acting is bad, plot is bad, costumes are bad it's not even for children.

I loved this movie when it came out. Went to the theaters to see it and believe me, when you go to the movies...this is the kind of movie that you pay every buck for. It's now 2016 and I just popped it into my Playstation 3 to watch. NEVER gets old. I love this movie now just as much as u did when I seen it in the theaters. The cast is incredible and my god...they were so YOUNG back then! Granted..it HAS been 23 years, but this is the kind of movie that earns it place as an instant classic. If you've never seen it...crawl out from under your rock and watch it. The humor and action are not to be missed and the whole movie from start to finish is just pure fun! Highly entertaining and I could watch it over and over.

D'Artagnan (Chris O'Donnell) intends to follow his father and join the Musketeers in Paris. His father was disgraced for supposedly failing to protect the king. Rochefort (Michael Wincott) working under the evil Cardinal Richelieu (Tim Curry) disbands the Musketeers. Three Musketeers Aramis (Charlie Sheen), Athos (Kiefer Sutherland) and Porthos (Oliver Platt) refuses to surrender. D'Artagnan quickly finds himself with three separate duels with the three Musketeers. He falls for Constance (Julie Delpy) who is a lady-in-waiting with Queen Anne (Gabrielle Anwar). D'Artagnan is captured by Rochefort but escapes after learning of Richelieu's plan to conspire with the English and Milady De Winter (Rebecca De Mornay) to overthrow the King.This Three Musketeers is trying to be another Young Guns. The problem is that it can't quite make this fun without feeling silly. This is a light weight swashbuckling adventure of yesteryears. It has no tension. The chemistry between the Musketeers feels tired. Chris O'Donnell has his joyless sincerity. The movie stalls whenever the swashbuckling action stops.

The three best of the disbanded Musketeers - Athos, Porthos, and Aramis - join a young hotheaded would-be-Musketeer, D'Artagnan, to stop the Cardinal Richelieu's evil plot: to form an alliance with enemy England by way of the mysterious Milady.Rochefort, the Cardinal's right-hand man, announces the official disbanding of the King's Musketeers.Three, however, refuse to throw down their swords - Athos the fighter and drinker, Porthos the pirate and lover, and Aramis the priest and poet.Arriving in Paris to join the Musketeers, D'Artagnan uncovers the Cardinal's plans, and the four set out on a mission to protect King and Country....From the upstart of the film, you cannot help but think Disney is trying to cash in on the 'Prince of Thieves' bandwagon. For one Wincott pays the second in command villain, and Bryan Adams provides the 'big' song.Whilst it's nowhere near as fun as the aforementioned movie,it still has it's moments and the titular characters are a hoot whenever they are together on screen.O' Donnell on the other hand is the kiss of death for this movie, and ruins every scene he's in. It just goes to show that 'scent of a woman' was a one trick pony.Luckily Sheen, Sutherland and Platt share most of his scenes and over shadow him at all times.Curry is crazily fun as the Cardinal and just keeps the ham and cheese light. Other characters are wasted, and annoying, but the last third of the film ups the action ante and makes the whole thing worth sitting through.Just.
