A grand mixture of adventure and comedy at the deft hand of Lester.

The conclusion to THE THREE MUSKETEERS is an equally satisfying romp. Forget all other MUSKETEER films of the past century. These are the pinnacle.

More a continuation than a sequel (this and it's predecesor were filmed at the same time, prompting some changes in SAG rules), this is still one of the best adaptations yest of the Dumas stories.
