Interesting in relation to the many versions that followed, in order to compare and/or contrast how the productions evolved in their visual spectacle, as well as how they treated Dumas' original words.

Reviews for The Three Musketeers
Exuberantly embraces the melodramatic absurdities of Dumas's moral universe [though] Don Q Son of Zorro did better with this kind of sophisticated European intrigue.
A barrelful o' fun--probably the best cinematic adaptation of Dumas' source material.
