Title: Very poor adaptation
Product review: I was very disappointed with this particular movie adaptation of the book. In the opening credits it states: Based on the book by Alexandre Dumas - Yeah VERY VERY LOOSLEY based! The Characters were completely changed around, and in some cases completely left out. The lowest rating available was 1 star; but I'd like to give it a -5 stars. I do NOT recomend this movie - although Richard Chamberlain did a good job playong the dual role, I have yet to find a good movie adaptation. The more recent verison with Leonardo DiCaprio was just as farcical- although more of the characters were there, the storyline was WAY OFF! All in all the book was by far the best. My suggestion: Don't waste your money on either movie version - buy the Book!
