Advantages: Great performences, Superb story
Disadvantages: Mix of accents, some of original story lost

...loved it and now own the DVD. My copy cost £7 from HMV; it is also available from Play and Amazon for around £6.

The front of the DVD case looks like the photograph shown. The back has a short description of the plot and some credits. This film was produced in 1975, and this DVD version released in 2007.

Wreak My Rewengay

Advantages: Exciting, sword fighting, not too much bodice ripping
Disadvantages: None

, so as not to narrow the audience and so any scenes where sex is involved are very underplayed and those involved are still fully clad and merely kiss and perhaps, rather daringly, hug! I found this a great relief as there is nothing I hate more when watching a drama or action film than to be assailed at every turn by heaving bosoms and overlibidious men. I have gone to watch the film for the sword fighting, the duels, the evil villains and exciting stunts and not to see some woman in the nude. If I wanted that there are plenty of pornos down at my local video shop. The Count of Monte Cristo had a romantic interest but that was not what dominated our hero?s actions, as he obviously thought with his brain and not what was in his trousers. No nudity here (sorry if that disappoints you blokies)! ENJOYMENT FACTOR The film will ...

Review of The Count Of Monte Cristo (DVD)

Don't count on this version...

Advantages: Good action, looks great, fantastic story
Disadvantages: Average script and acting, misses lots out from the book

is now married to his enemy and they are living in Paris. So he goes off and tracks them down, and with his new-found wealth, he can finally get his vengeance on all those that betrayed him, under the pretence of the Count of Monte Cristo? As I said, I do like this genre of film anyway, so I was always going to enjoy this. It has everything an adventure film should have: a gripping storyline, a dastardly villain (but not over the top), some great swashbuckling action, stunning locations and costumes, and even buried treasure. The acting from the two leads is fine, if not ground-breaking, with Guy Pearce being cast perfectly as the baddie due to his evil grin. There are also appearances from the late Richard Harris as Faria, and possibly someone off Taggart playing Napoleon Bonaparte; see if you recognise him! The woman who plays ...

Review of The Count Of Monte Cristo (DVD)

Don't rob me of my hate

Advantages: Excellent swash buckling entertainment
Disadvantages: Strays from the book too much for puritans

This is one of those films that I've always had on my list of things to watch but never quite got round to, then it was shown on terrestrial TV and I was left with no excuse - I am very glad I couldn't find anything. I think most people are at least aware of the title and the existance of Alexandre Dumas classic novel of betrayal and revenge and I was very impressed by the way it translated on to the screen. The story focuses on Edmond Dantes (Jim Cavievel) who is a moral and idealic young sailor on a vessel with his best friend Fernand Mondego (Guy Pearce) who is the heir to the title 'Count of Morcerf'. The story open with these two men landing on Elba (then the prison of Napoleon) to seek aid for their sick captain. The Captain dies but Napoleon is impressed with Edmonds honour and asks him to deliver an innocent letter for him to ...
