    Not a masterpiece, but quite an interesting adaptation of the work by Alexandre Dumas. Pierre Niney looks good in the role of the Count of Monte Cristo. The film is interesting to watch despite its almost 3-hour running time Translated to English

    Watched

    It’s cool that the film was released in a 3-hour runtime. At the same time, the frantic pace still remains, which makes the subject easy to watch. The only thing that upset me was that the life of the main character at the beginning and his imprisonment were shown too little. There was not enough regularity and there were too many time skips. Translated to English

    Watched

    I’m not a fan of this genre, but I watched the film with some interest. Despite the long running time, the time flew by while watching it. Translated to English

    Watched

    A great adventure and a real blockbuster. I respect the execution. Everyone here is so beautiful and important. The ending seemed a bit forced: everything developed so epically and passionately, and ended without much romance. Translated to English

    Watched

    The film is not bad, but it lacks something, I think of a moment like this: you’re preparing some dish, you seem to be doing everything right, but when you try it, you realize that you should have added this seasoning and the dish would have turned out great, that’s how it is with this film. Translated to English

    Watched

    An impressive main character, interesting secondary characters, a plot that instantly draws you in and doesn’t let you go until the very end, and complete immersion into the atmosphere of the 19th century. Translated to English

    Watched

    A sumptuous adaptation of the novel, demonstrating the grandeur of the film with its sweeping scale and marvelous views. Three hours are like one moment. Translated to English

    Watched

    Dumas is turning over in his grave. As a film adaptation it is very bad, they distorted the plot, mixed up the characters, removed important episodes. In the book, although it is fantastic, it is explainable. Here he escaped and here on a ship. Alone. Where he got the ship is unclear. How he managed it alone is unclear. The viewer is an idiot, he will swallow it. Translated to English

    Watched

    A large-scale French adaptation of the classic novel by Alexandre Dumas. The film impresses with its visuals, epicness and a strong performance by Pierre Niney as Edmond Dantes. However, despite some simplifications of the plot, the film remains true to the spirit of the original. Translated to English

    Watched

    The movie deserves a 7, but the ratings and reviews raised my expectations, and in fact I wasted 3 hours on a naive mediocre plot. I recommend it only if you have never watched a good movie before. Translated to English

    Watched

    A rather free adaptation of the novel. Despite its length, the film sorely lacks time to focus on individual events of love, betrayal, imprisonment. Everything goes to revenge, and it is presented rather chaotically. The film introduces elements, characters and does not reveal them. Translated to English

    Watched

    An interesting film, three hours in one breath. But at the same time it is a bad adaptation, the plot was distorted significantly. However, the actors are very organic, the main character is catchy. For my taste, the duel scene with Fernand was a little disappointing, too pathetic and feigned. If you do not compare it with the book, then Translated to English

    Watched

    I am one of those people who separates the wheat from the chaff, and that is because cinema and literature are completely different forms of art. I really liked the film. Beautiful, lively, dynamic. And in general… Pierre Niney (One Love) is the best Count of Monte Cristo, in my opinion, that is exactly how he should be. Translated to English

    Watched

    Colourful, magnificent views, costumes, but its own (its own vision) interpretation of the novel, a more lively atmosphere than previous film adaptations, you can watch it. Translated to English

    Watched

    Once again they filmed Dumas without Dumas. Well, okay, the film is beautiful, you can’t take that away. Translated to English

    Watched

    Maybe it’s a movie, maybe it’s Dumas, but I liked it. There are so many actors from Aliexpress in the film: Dantes is Brody + Durov, Caderus DiCaprio, Abbe Pharma is Agent Smith with a beard, and Albert is Strykalo. But the 3 hours flew by unnoticed, although someone’s snoring was heard throughout the entire hall Translated to English

    Watched

    Great film adaptation. I read the novel when I was 14. Only fragments remain in my memory, but the film gives me the opportunity to remember. Beautiful and interesting. Translated to English

    Watched

    It seems to be in the same style as the reboot of "The Musketeers", but no: if there everything is subordinated to speed and shock effect, then here the work is more subtle. Betrayal occurs in a heartfelt whisper, revenge is cooked on a slow fire, the actors play beautifully. Translated to English

    Watched

    Well, the adaptation of French classics in French cinema is very good. And this film is another confirmation of that. Translated to English

    Watched

    The juicy picture does not save the too schematic, abstract and lifeless retelling of one of the most interesting and emotional works. If before I always lived with Edmond, then this time it did not touch me at all. Translated to English

    Watched

    I love films with this theme, definitely 10 points, expensively filmed and beautifully done. Translated to English

    Watched

    I’m shocked… A masterpiece! I sat in the cinema for another 15 minutes digesting it as the credits rolled) This is the best thing I’ve seen lately (I haven’t read the book) Translated to English

    Watched

    I didn’t understand why Dantes needed masks, in which he still looks exactly the same. But I wanted to read Dumas, that’s true. Translated to English

    Watched

    Sweet word revenge. New screen adaptation about the Count of Monte Cristo and in my opinion it is the best. Pierre Ninet perfectly fits into the role of the Count. Three hours of enjoyment of the film. I definitely recommend watching. Translated to English
