About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a lightweight, action-first swashbuckler with over-the-top fights and don’t mind a loose take on the classic story; Not for you if you need strong acting or faithful Dumas like The Three Musketeers (2011).
Pros: quick pace; flashy sword fights; fun midnight watch | Cons: weak acting; messy storytelling; thin characters
