Theres no way to say this without sounding pretentious.....but...





Read the book. Alexander dumas.




The movie is a dud compared to the book. In the book his revenge scheme is just insanely intricate.



Your doing yourself a disservice if you dont read it.
same thing with the godfather

book was incredible, actually ruined the movie for me :ehh:

Ordered this book on my own volition. Got the unabridged version.

Gonna order the book now too, I remember watching 'Sleepers' and the main kid mentions it and the storyline while in a classroom and I was like :ehh:

Saw the film last year and even though it had Jesus, Superman and Guy Pearce in it, I wasn't really into it.

I'm sure the book will be good though as I liked the story

Read "the black count". Dumas based his story on the life of his father, who was the highest ranking black officer in the french army at the time only to be destroyed by Napoléon.

This is the best Count of Monte Cristo adaption by far and I urge all fans to watch it.
Watch the French miniseries breh, trust me it beats it. They're both good though.

Wait, we are talking about the Jim Caviezal/Guy Pierce joint?! Niccas saying it's top 3?! It's an entertaining movie but niccas please slow your role. There is nothing classic or 'top 3' about this movie. It's a solid 3 star movie, there are literally thousands of these type of movies as far as quality. Top 3 are things like The Godfather, Goodfellas, Do the Right Thing, not shyt like this.
