User Review
The Best Kind Of "Popcorn Movie"!
Rating: 9/10
I don't see why people are making so much noise against this movie. We
all know this isn't a history class. We all know this isn't realistic
in any way. It is NOT and it's NOT supposed to be! I've never heard
people say : "The musical version of The Three Musketeers with Gene
Kelly isn't faithful to the book". Frankly, who cares? If you want the
true story, the realistic story, get a book or a documentary. What we
have here is a true "popcorn movie", the kind of film you put in your
DVD player for a nice evening of "no thinking, just enjoying". This is
a Hollywood family movie, with 3 great stars, fancy costumes, beautiful
scenery and great music. To me, this is some of the best entertainment!
The kind of entertainment that cinema was invented for and that was so
successful in the 40s and 50s. It seems to me that people today just
can't enjoy that kind of entertainment anymore. And that is sad! So,
please, stop complaining and just enjoy for Pete's sake! (lol!)
