Dove Review

This is a story about how D’Artagnan became the fourth Musketeer. The movie is filled with comedy and underlying drama as the young man is somewhat clumsy but he can hold his own with a sword. The three Musketeers team up with the newcomer to help the queen, and D’Artagnan must prove he is worthy of being a musketeer.

Although this 1973 version is a classic with some very well-known actors and actresses, it has many sword fights and some questionable actions between married woman and single men. There are scenes of comical clumsiness that will have you laughing at the antics that are used to show the good guy saving the day. But unfortunately, the sexual elements and some language put it over the top of our guideline for approval.
