This comedy-adventure is one of several adaptations of Alexadre Dumas (pere) classic novel. Provincial swordsman DArtagnan (Chris ODonnell) travels to Paris to follow in his fathers footsteps and become a kings guard, a musketeer. Meanwhile, the evil royal advisor Cardinal Richelieu (Tim Curry), with the help of one-eyed Captain Rochefort (Michael Wincott), has disbanded the Kings bodyguards in his devious attempt to usurp the power of the King (Hugh OConor) and rule France. Three of the musketeers, Athos (Kiefer Sutherland), Porthos (Oliver Platt), and Aramis (Charlie Sheen), escape and partner with DArtagnan in an attempt to thwart the Cardinal and his minions, who also include the duplicitous Milady de Winter (Rebecca DeMornay). ~ Lisa Kropiewnicki, All Movie Guide
