Hard to make short of three hours. Althought la Fille de d'Artagnan, wich was kind of a parody of the genre, was great, most of the movies I've seen about it are... Well, you said it, crap. Haven't seen the new one, tho. But the story just isn't... Impressive enough for most american cineasts, so they add random explosions (I remember a particular movie that had a 17th century military camp blow up from end to end...)

Etie "French movies are fun!" nne
