The Dumas story very much as Dumas wrote it: which leaves nothing to complain about.

Maclean's Magazine
This is a picture for those whom like their full money's worth of solid entertainment.

The Spectator
... slow and static and creaky, stopping dead for monologues and exposition to explain what the film can't afford to show.

Product Description:
Alexandre Dumas' THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO follows the adventures of Edmond Dantès (Gérard Depardieu), a 19th-century French version of James Bond or Batman, a rich, ruthless, and suave purveyor of homemade justice. This French production goes all out, having the destinction of being the first filmed version of the newly restored unabridged version of Dumas' classic, which runs about 800 pages. The movie was filmed all over Europe, has a cast of thousands where even the extras are big names, and, with an original running time of more than six hours, doesn't leave out any detail from the celebrated novel.
