Trouble is a brewing in the land of the Musketeers as the cardinal and his right hand man plot to bring about the collapse of the French King by manipulating a war between Britain and France. Only D'artagnan and his fellow swordsman stand in the way of this dastardly act, can they save the day, or will the French Revolution be pre-empted? The Musketeer has some quite amazing fight choreography courtesy of the Hong Kong masters and the film is lushly shot, but it lacks the humour and warmth of previous adaptations of Dumas' tale. Slickly entertaining but short on heart.
