Not half as good as the original

The content seriously deviates from the original only because the foreshadowing and background of the original are too complicated. The movie has simplified most of the content to make the plot simple and easy to understand. The newly added content is also lackluster. It's fake. I didn't even watch the whole movie. I didn't even need to watch it. In short, in my opinion, this new Count of Monte Cristo movie is not half as good as the original. If you haven't read the book, I will watch the movie. It is recommended to just read the original

    The second half is too bad, it looks like a running account

    Very disappointed, although I know that there will be a gap in the adaptation of the famous novel, but compared to Tom Hardy, his acting skills are really much worse
