Critics Consensus

Its starry trio of do-gooders may promise to fight "one for all, all for one," but this Three Musketeers is a slickly unmemorable update bound to satisfy very few.

Peter Travers

Rolling Stone

All this nonsense would be news to Dumas, whose grave is surely spinning as his musketeers - sucked dry of high drama and low wit - go kicking and screaming into the wonderful world of Disney.

[A] sound adaptation of the famous tale, hewing closely to the story and its buddy aspect.

Those who have never seen a previous "Musketeers" adaptation or a truly exciting Hollywood adventure in the grand style may be swept along, but the mechanical, paint-by-numbers feel of this outing is too evident to ignore.

...an erratically-paced yet mostly entertaining adventure...

What "The Three Musketeers" lacks in poeticism, it makes up for in entertainment value, at least.

A nice approach, but a little bit naive, but is Disney so I think that we cannot expect much realism from them, although it's very entertaining, a great family movie.

This is a very fun little movie. It is a lighthearted adaptation of The Three Musketeers, intended principally for children/early teens. I loved it as a kid.

Disney es conocida por haber adaptado muchos relatos clásicos y mayormente tiene la costumbre de hacer adaptaciones libres con nuevas reinterpretaciones. Curiosamente, por más que se tome muchas libertades creativas, sus películas tienen algo que hacen que obtengan un cierto cariño de la audiencia. En este caso, le toco adaptar la novela de Los Tres Mosqueteros en una versión libre que se distancia del relato original y cambia varias cosas. La película logra ser fiel a los personajes principales que son D'Artagnan y sus compañeros mosqueteros. Lo que sí se cambió bastante fue los roles de Milady y Richelieu. Milady no tiene mucha relevancia en la película y Richelieu ocupa su lugar como el antagonista principal. La verdad Tim Curry hace un muy buen trabajo en su papel. Constance tampoco tiene mucha relevancia como en la historia original y queda en segundo plano. Desde luego que la película altera gran parte de la historia original, pero como muchas adaptaciones libres de Disney, logra ser una película disfrutable y al menos mantiene un elemento esencial de la historia original que es el honor y la hermandad que hay entre los mosqueteros. En parte, sí respeta el espíritu de la obra de Dumas y hace que sea una adaptación aceptable por más que se haya tomado libertades creativas. Es una película que se puede disfrutar si se la ve como una película en solitario y si no se tiene mucho conocimiento de la novela original. Talvez si hubiera sido una película animada en vez de una acción viva, hubiera tenido más aceptación. Curioso que el método de Disney solo haya funcionado en sus clásicos animados. Mi calificación final para esta película es un 8/10.
