Books I read in high school. It's a set of four. I had never read a book of this size before, and the four books that were daunting to open were read in an instant. Happily.
Today, a few years later, this classic is reunited with this movie. At the beginning of the movie, I have to say that the filming is very good, and the plot is basically explained. Unjustly imprisoned, life is better than death, meeting an old pastor and getting a new life, rushing out of the cage to get treasure, all of which are very smooth and enjoyable to watch.
When it comes to the revenge stage, it is much inferior to the previous one. With my vague memory of the novel, this episode didn't feel very enjoyable to me. Especially the final ending, it is too bloody! Maybe it's because the novel is too good, it's really not easy to make a good film.
In addition, the male protagonist is indeed very handsome, but the young face is completely unable to control the earl's temperament, the earl in my heart is not like this! no! The heroine always reminds me of Rose on the Titanic...
Speaking of which, to sum up, the novel is too perfect and the movie is dwarfed, so I can only give it three stars. If I haven't read the novel, I would rate it higher. In short, a good story is always worth watching.
I'm going to read the novel again!

    Three and a half. I haven't seen the other version, so I don't know what's better than this version for the time being. Prison break is actually not the focus, but the jail break part is the highlight of the film.

    Although the Count of Monte Cristo is one of my favorite literary characters, this film still disappoints me, because it really tampered with the original... In my opinion, it goes against the feelings of Mr. Dumas, director Or maybe I want to take care of some audience's expectations for the ending of the drama~ And the "hatred" in the film is not very strong, and there is no strong desire and struggle felt in the book. Or maybe the director is a little merciful. However, a certain kissing scene in the film is as beautiful as a silhouette haha~haha~
