The Count of Monte-Cristo (2024) | Rotten Tomatoes (2024)

Audience Reviews

Audience Member This movie is simply a masterpiece of everything that can be more beautifully described. It combines story and movie in the most beautiful, qualitative and artistic movie possible. It simply almost brings tears to your eyes, from the music, to the scenery, set, and characters. The music is simply phenomenal, purely emotional. The scenery immerses you with thoughts of the Napoleonic and French era, totally captivating you into the landscape. The actors leave you speechless, imitating the roles of the characters as if they were simply characters born from the novel. It is a wonder of a movie! I highly recommend it to anyone, regardless of taste, and you will see that you will love it! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/27/24 Full Review Spike D Sublime. The definitive adaptation. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/26/24 Full Review Fabien B Une version lisse et propre comme ces rues de Paris où rien ne traînent, où tout est bien trop propre pour être crédible.Et pourtant, il aurait suffit de s'entourer d'historiens pour reproduire une France d'alors qui tient la route. Tout est tellement pensée de la forme que l'on veut efficace et bankable, que le texte, pourtant splendide, disparaît aux oubliettes.Des oubliettes bien plus réalistes que les ersatz de Fort Boyard dans lesquelles on retrouve un Edmond Dantes bien trop barbu et hirsute après seulement 4 ans d'emprisonnement.Un Edmond Dantes qui ne vieillit pas et bien trop gentil d'ailleurs quand un élan de rédemption vient balayer en trois secondes l'âme vengeresse pourtant essentielle au personnage. Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/26/24 Full Review Jevon H I have watched both the 1975 (Richard Chamberlain) and the 2002 (Jim Caviezel) versions of this story and now I have seen what they might have been.I have been enamoured with this story since I first saw it in the late 70's. The story is such an adventure. When the 2002 came out I was less enamoured with it as it tried to make the ending happy, which this story should not have. The 2024 version of this story truly encapsulates what the story is about and enthrals the viewer for 3 hours as it tells the tale of wrongful imprisonment and revenge. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/24/24 Full Review acsdoug D I've never read Dumas' book so I don't know how closely the movie follows the source material. All I know is the film kept me engrossed for almost three hours. The sets, the dialogue, the acting, all superb. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/19/24 Full Review Audience Member as a fan of the book, The Count of Monte Cristo felt like a bittersweet experience. the film takes significant liberties with key elements that, for me, gave the story its depth and characters their rich complexity. that said, it’s undeniably a good film, elevated by a talented cast who bring passion and life to the screen. for those unfamiliar with the original tale, it’s an engaging and entertaining ride—just don’t expect it to be faithful to the intricate masterpiece of the novel.
