DUMAS?
OR HUGO?
REVIEW FOR: "THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO"
"Well presented,and filmed very well.. Sets,and scenic settings very good.. Acting in most roles was very good well done.. Gerad Depardieu was a little too brooding in the role at times.. Female leads were best of all,and very well costumed,and filled their roles with a dash of greatness!! My main fault finding with the film is.. Victor Hugo,s classic novel does not need a rewrite.. Why don,t they just use the story he wrote.. And not try,and Hollywoodize it!! That and the fact that 4 hours of reading captions.. Is just too much,and really distracts from the tale!! Good!! But Not Great!! Read the book instead,and get the real feel for this classic novel!!!"
Poorly written and typed, but this isn't an English class assignment so I'll cut him/her some slack and maybe this person's first language wasn't English but what is unforgivable is the fact that they think that "The Count of Monte Cristo" was written by Victor Hugo.
update: just checked the person's netflix profile, turns out he's a WWII vet, I almost feel like a jerk. Thanks for your service to this country "NOVATO OLD MAN".
