The Three Musketeers: D'Artagnan 7.5/10

If you like a bit of action and intrigue in a period setting, you can't go wrong with this first part of a two-film French adaptation of Dumas' classic. It is grittier than previous adaptations that I've seen, and also lacks the humour of the 70s classic with Michael York/Richard Chamberlain/Oliver Reed, though it doesn't suffer for it. I do feel that they could have spent a bit more time with the world building, instead of essentially throwing us straight into the story, but that is my only real gripe.

The camera work during the action scenes remind me of The Revenant.
