This positively gleeful adaptation of the inseparable trio and brash newcomer D'Artagnan lives in the sweet spot between the original figures and what, over time, their legacy has become.

Colorfully drawn. But all inside the lines.

It's a little cheesy, but never takes itself very seriously.
June 24, 2014
Refreshingly realistic in some ways (there is much jumping out of high windows, but the jumper is often actually injured) and soothingly romantic in others, The Musketeers is a captivating balance of spectacle and story

There's little in this incarnation viewers have not seen before.
June 23, 2014
The Musketeers ride again. But this swash buckles in all the wrong places.

Even viewers who are just now meeting [Dumas'] iconic foursome will have some difficulties with this uneven BBC adaptation that begins with an overly complicated backstory and fails to fully make up for it with compelling characters and must-see action.
