Aro Recommended Count of Monte Cristo, The

 

USA 2002, 126 minutes
Dir. Kevin Reynolds
Rating: [M]
Genres: Action/Adventure / Adventure

Topics: Period - 1800s, Swashbuckler.

 

Aroview: Replicating the contemporary-yet-traditional witty action-mix of MASK OF ZORRO, this version of Alexander Dumas’ 19th century potboiler doesn’t fail to swashbuckle.

This finds an aggrieved Jim Caviezel seeking to revenge himself on old-pal Guy Pearce, who steals his girlfriend and lands him in a horrible dungeon to rot. Expensive locations, high romance and a lack of Hollywood heavy-handedness make for a pleasing rollicker.
