I just read that book for the 6th time since I was 12 years old. And I’m 43 now. Each time I’ve read it I learn more and it means something new and different to me. IMO the greatest work of fiction ever written.
@@Mr.Eeeeeeeee have you seen 'The Count of Monte Cristo' shot back in '02 just a straight-up action-packed adventure too, that runs for a solid 2 hours and 11 minutes.
Just watched the movie. Screenplay: incredible. Pierre: magnificent. Action: constantly keeps you on edge. Score: beautiful. Cinematography: awesome. I hope it finds success in foreign markets as well.
Albert and Haydee's romance is not convincing. It is unlikely that anyone would have an affair with the son of their father's murderer. In the book, she loves Edmond, and their painful past unites them. The book The Wives by Alexandra Popoff (available for purchase on Amazon) tells the true story of a young woman whose family was a victim of political persecution and who falls in love with a man who spent years in prison for political reasons. "Although separated by a twenty-year age difference, Natalia and Solzhenitsyn had much in common: the gulag and the Second World War, which caused him much suffering and also left deep scars on her childhood." - The Wives by Alexandra Popoff
There's a four-part series starring Gerard Depardieu that was released in the late 1990s which brings much of the texture of Dumas's writing to the screen. I can't recall who released it but it aired more than once on Bravo in the early-mid 2000s.
There is the 1964 BBC miniseries with Alan Badel, there is the French miniseries Le Comte de Monte Cristo (1979) with Jacques Weber and directed by Denys de La Patellière who is the father of Alexandre de La Patellière who is one of the directors of this film. There is the 1998 French miniseries with Gerard Depardieu. There will also be a miniseries this year with Sam Claflin and Jeremy Irons.
The Count of Monte Cristo is my favorite book !!! It is because I heard many things about the Count of Monte Cristo since he was a child. So, I decided to buy the book one day and read it all !!! After searching through many bookstores in my city, I found it and it was very difficult because after a couple of hours I realized that it was an out-of-print book. When I bought it, I was reading it on the bus on the way from my house to school and vice versa. I wasn't bored reading it in the least and it got interesting as the book progressed until I have finished it. Definitely, the best book that I've ever read 👍 My favorite parts are when Edmundo finds the treasure on the island of Monte Cristo and when he starts to reward the people who were loyal to him. Also when Monte Cristo reveals to Maximilian Morrel that he helped his father and family in the past. Consequently, Maximilian and his sister hugged Monte Cristo I have always wanted to see a production, whether TV or film, that perfectly expresses what is interpreted in the book. I really liked Jim Caviezel's movie, but it doesn't express the ending well because Monte Cristo stays with Haydee and not Mercedes. As I once heard, Hollywood prefers a happy ending; but that is not the point because there were also flaws in the end of the count's enemies In addition to other things such as the absence of important characters such as Haydee, Maximiliano Morrel and Villefort's daughter Danglars does not end up imprisoned for theft of merchandise as happens in the movie. Danglars was a banker and ends up bankrupt and without family Fernando was never Edmundo's best friend, and Edmundo does not kill him with a sword. The book tells that Fernando commits suicide after losing his wife, his son, and his social prestige. Villefort does not end up imprisoned for the death of his father, but rather he goes crazy due to so many recent emotions and regrets from the past. I have seen the trailer for this movie and it looks incredible because apparently it follows everything related to the book. I say this because characters that I did not see in previous productions such as Haydee and Maximilian, they appear in this trailer and besides the sets and recorded scenes are also impressive. My favorite scene of this trailer was when the Count of Monte Cristo fought several men at the same time. In advance, many congratulations for this enormous production that I'm pretty sure it's going get excited all the fans of the Count of Monte Cristo and make them very happy !!!
My two favorite parts of the book was when Edmond in the port riding a boat bid farewell to humanity, kindness and gratitude he said. He continued to say that farewell to all goodness that gladdens the heart. Edmond continued declare that I have taken my place as substitute for Providence in rewarding the good ( addressing to Monsieur Morrell). Now, may the GOD of vengeance yield me His place to punish the wicked. And the other one was when to told Danglars after everything that I forgive you, for I too ,needs to be forgiven.
Watch Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo anime. It's the best adaptation that follows most of the book very closely. Only differences are is it starts about half way through the book from Alberts point of view. The art style takes a little getting use to plus the setting is in the future and has some space parts but still feels like old France. It's not 1 for 1 but it's the most faithful version I enjoy the most. Also, it's the only version I know of that includes pretty much every character and most of their stories. Every other version is missing a significant amount of characters and details that make the book amazing.
It was that good, I couldn't even watch till the end. Overall a weak plot, overreaching and the amount of plot hole is uncanny why it's not there good.
I am indian (form, India,west bengal, Nadia, Fulia)🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳 this is my all time favourite story... Emotion, life lessons,love, thriller etc... ❤❤❤❤❤ waiting for this masterpiece
"Dans Le Comte de Monte-Cristo, un revenge movie épique sélectionné hors compétition à Cannes (sortie le 28 juin), elle est Haydée, orpheline missionnée par Edmond Dantès (Pierre Niney) pour séduire le fils de son pire ennemi." Haydee will not be from the East, she will be from Eastern Europe, as the actress said in an interview. There will be a miniseries with Sam Claflin as Edmond and Jeremy Irons. This adaptation must be faithful. According to the variety "Mediawan is handling worldwide distribution rights to “The Count of Monte Cristo,” in cooperation with CAA (for North America), and with the participation of Entourage."
Это прекрасный роман А.Дюма🎉 Очередная его экранизация указывает на это. В России любят его творчество. У нас великолепные переводы его произведений и "Граф Монте-Кристо "в том числе. Жду с нетерпением новую экранизацию этого произведения. Спасибо!
I watched the movie yesterday and honestly besides all the brilliant things: the direction, the screenplay, the casting, beautiful shots....I couldn't take my eyes of the actor in the leading role 😍😍😍. He's magnificent, with hounting, captivating eyes. I guess he's a big star in France, but after this I hope sky is the limit for him 👏👏👏👏👏. Thanks to the authors of the movie for doing justice to Dumas legendary character by choosing the right actor to play him.
This director and writer team of Matthieu Delaporte and Alexandre de La Patellière did a phenomenal job with the recent Three Musketeers films and this film promises to be as great as those two films are.
"Dans Le Comte de Monte-Cristo, un revenge movie épique sélectionné hors compétition à Cannes (sortie le 28 juin), elle est Haydée, orpheline missionnée par Edmond Dantès (Pierre Niney) pour séduire le fils de son pire ennemi." Haydee will no longer be a princess from the East, she will be an orphan from Eastern Europe. The actress who plays Hsydee said she would be from Romania. Kind of disappointing. I expected her to be a kind of Caesar and Cleopatra, a union of the two against a common adversary and at the same time they become lovers. There will be a miniseries with Sam Claflin as Edmond and Jeremy Irons. This adaptation must be faithful. According to the variety "Mediawan is handling worldwide distribution rights to “The Count of Monte Cristo,” in cooperation with CAA (for North America), and with the participation of Entourage."
@@ThomasLeonardStudioThat version was great but it wasn't a faithful adaptation, they completely forgot about Haydee and how he falls in love again, this looks great and a more faithful adaptation but I'm not convinced with the main actor, he doesn't seem to have the charisma of Jim Caviezel, you need an actor with insane charisma to portray this character.
I hope this film isn't a mediocre attempt to imitate Homer's The Odyssey, bringing together Edmond and Mercedes like Ulysses and Penelope. Just like the miniseries with Depardieu and the film with Jim Caviezel. I place the 2002 adaptation as the worst adaptation of the book. That final scene of Fernand and Edmond dueling was lame. Fernand was wanted, he was supposed to have fled like Cassius and Brutus who immediately left Rome after the crowd wanted to lynch them because of Caesar's death, Antony and Augustus went after them. There will also be an Italian television miniseries in English-language with Sam Claflin as the count. Just as Julius Caesar has the intelligent and determined Cleopatra, the count has Haydee as a companion who is determined to take revenge and is very cultured. When Cleopatra appears in Caesar's room, she impresses him with her culture and intelligence. The count was on another level and Mercedes was just a hick with expensive clothes. In addition to having married the count's greatest enemy. Haydee was a girl who had a better cultural background, she even knew other languages like Count.
Yes!!!! Finally a good looking adaptation! And by France!!!! I will be watching this! When I read the Couunt of Monte Cristo my idea of what constituted a great book changed. It became the book I used to judge all others. So far nothing has surpassed it!
Époustouflant. Qu'ils respectent la fin du roman d'Alexandre Dumas et tout ira déjà mieux que 90% de toutes les adaptations cinématographiques depuis 1908...❤ PS: Loving Pierfrancesco Favino as Abbé Faria
The fate of the three enemies in the novel is very exciting, but almost all the movies or TV versions have dramatic changes and are not as interesting as the original work. The cowardly soldier who stole the protagonist's wife eventually lost his wife and son and died by his own gun. The prosecutor who violated the law was destroyed in court and eventually went crazy. The greedy banker who made shady money went completely bankrupt and experienced the pain of living without money. Basically, Dante defeats his enemies in the environment they are most familiar with, allowing them to be destroyed by their own greed. This is the essence of the story.
The original story is actually more about *retribution* than revenge: the dispensing of saving grace as well as bitingly-just punishment, and how complex such an endeavour can be, to the point of unforeseen consequences. Although, beautifully shot and innovative in some aspects, this film adaptation, unfortunately, lack some key elements: . the Morel family arc is desperately missing . although Haydée is at least present in this version, her heart allegiance has been gravely altered . Édouard, and the terrible lessons his fate brings Sadly, fans of the original material will have to _wait_ and _hope_ for a more accurate adaptation. 📖 > 🎞
Such an amazing movie with beautiful cinematography, great acting and overall plot. This is more than just a movie. It asks you the question of what lengths would you go to seek revenge in order to right the wrongs done by those you trusted? This is the best French movie I've ever seen. Highly recommended 9/10!
I hope we can get the chance to see it on streaming! I've been patiently waiting for this movie for months and cannot contain my excitement anymore!! The cinematography, the set design, the acting, the soundtrack 😭
Dantes was imprisoned because he was falsely accused of being a Napoleonic party, and because Napoleon's restoration failed, he could not overturn his conviction. The background of this story is very interesting.
This one of my favorite stories by the author Alexandre Dumas. The history of this man is so fascinating His mother was a slave, but he become an aristocrat in France, but was always plagued with racism. I believe that through this tale, he was speaking about his own struggle in a symbolic way. I cannot wait until it comes to Italy.
Super stoked for this. has to be one of my favorite books of all time. I really hope they make his final revenges on everyone more like that book. Especially Villefort his was pretty messed up lol
I was reading some unrelated story and suddendly The Count of Monted-Cristo popped into my mind. I decided to search for the story/the movie on Netflix, couldn't find it. A Google search brought me here, unbeknownst to me there was a newly released version of the movie. I read the book when I was a teenager growing up in the Caribbean and I am now in my late 50's and it still remains my favorite story/book of all times. Now, going to look for where I can watch it...
Yeah, I really like him for the role, and he's about the right age too - with the right makeup, he can look the part for both the younger and the older version of Dantes.
No, he didn't. He changed an insane amount of stuff in the story, starting with the characters' ages (everyone way older than they should be), then going on to new subplots, then the sexuality of Porthos, the ethnicity of Constance, and so on and so forth.
Absolutely love Dumas' masterpiece, I sincerely hope for this version to be good as previous films, never fully matched the captivating beauty of the book. It looks promising and can't wait to watch it
No adaptation can exceed my imagination/visualization of the whole story of the book. That are still in my mind. Chapter by chapter. It's like my own world that I truly adore. but I'm really excited to watch this film... Idk when it'll be released on digital tho
I read the book at school in ancient time. It was very interesting and was the best book I ever read. Very absorbing and gives understanding about life. Now will watch the movie. To be more respectful to the book it should have been cast into series of several episodes.
I fell in love with this story from the American version. Then I read the book a realized a TON was left out. This movie does a better job even though things were changed. I lome that they made it 3 hrs.
en: I just saw this movie in the cinema, and it's absolutely stunning! It might be my new favorite film! My partner lives in the UK, and I would love for him to see this movie. How can I make this happen? Where will this film be available with English subtitles, as in the trailer here? For exemple, It's mentioned that the subtitles will not be available on Amazon Prime. ____ fr: Je viens d'aller voir ce film au cinéma et il est absolument magnifique ! C'est peut-être mon nouveau film préféré ! Mon conjoint habite au Royaume-Uni et j'aimerais énormément lui faire découvrir ce film. Comment faire ? Où ce film sera-t-il disponible avec des sous-titres anglais, comme dans la bande-annonce ici ? Par exemple, il est indiqué que les sous-titres ne seront pas disponibles sur Amazon Prime.
This is NOT trailer but - short version of movie 🤨 I'm so glad I didn't watch this, so I enjoyed in the movie Really GREAT MOVIE 💫💫💫 after looong time, I watched something I like from the first seconds - acting, sound, scenario - 3 hours flew like a bird
i have seen the film, haydée goes with the son of the blond guy in red and the ex fiancée of monte cristo married with the blond guy(they are cousins but the blond guy still was in love and she accepted because she thought monte cristo was dead)
I read it for the first time when I was 10 years old, I just liked the cover. Then I reread it again when I was 18, and watched many movie adaptations, but none of them conveyed the feelings that Dumas put into this story. I hope this time it will be successful, today I'm going to the cinema.
So I watched the film, and while the director took several liberties with the original story-adding new characters and events-it still left a lasting impression. It doesn’t follow Dumas word for word, but we have to remember that Dumas himself drew inspiration from real-life events. The casting is on fire, and the OST alone deserves an Oscar.Out of the many attempts to bring this masterpiece to the screen, I’d say this take is probably the most successful. However, in my imagination, the book, with its authentic characters and original storyline, will always live on. --
France's great story, committed to film by the French, as it should be. I hope this plays in the UK. A must-see in the cinema.
It should be played in UK like for the three musketeers
I hope it plays in the US.
@@danicleckley5404😂😂😂only in the 1950s cinema.
@@danicleckley5404 I'm hoping, too. It's my favorite Dumas story.

Such an amazing movie with beautiful cinematography, great acting and overall plot. This is more than just a movie. It asks you the question of what lengths would you go to seek revenge in order to right the wrongs done by those you trusted? This is the best French movie I've ever seen. Highly recommended 9/10!
Seen it in France.
Fantastic.
My god, this was magnificent. I’m speechless, deeply touched. It just transported the spirit of the book like nothing has before. Truly wonderful.
Saw this at the cinema and it was sensational. Beautifully done.
I hope we can get the chance to see it on streaming! I've been patiently waiting for this movie for months and cannot contain my excitement anymore!! The cinematography, the set design, the acting, the soundtrack 😭
Dantes was imprisoned because he was falsely accused of being a Napoleonic party, and because Napoleon's restoration failed, he could not overturn his conviction. The background of this story is very interesting.
He was never convicted, he was falsely imprisoned without trial.
the 2001 movie was a more dramatic, this one seems a bit more action packed
Not quite, he was kept in jail because of Villefort's betrayal.
@@Gargeleractually it’s the opposite, you need to refresh your memory.
Best movie of the year so far.
It was the one of the best movies that I've ever watched. 🇫🇷
This one of my favorite stories by the author Alexandre Dumas. The history of this man is so fascinating His mother was a slave, but he become an aristocrat in France, but was always plagued with racism. I believe that through this tale, he was speaking about his own struggle in a symbolic way. I cannot wait until it comes to Italy.
Super stoked for this. has to be one of my favorite books of all time. I really hope they make his final revenges on everyone more like that book. Especially Villefort his was pretty messed up lol
I saw it in Polish cinema and I was impressed. A wonderful adaptation and an outstanding 3 hours spent in the cinema
I just saw it. A wonderful film. Best I've seen this year.
Where did you watch it?
@@SmithSedi this guy is french so we can see it in cinemas already
Best movie is joker this year bro grow up
Saw it a few days ago, it is truly an excellent adaptation !
Omg this is my favourite story since childhood. Started reading at 10 and i didnt understand much, but now that i do, i love it even more!
magnificent movie. The protagonist was absolutely fantastic, and the music....spectacular
I've seen this trailer multiple times and still can't get enough. It looks stunning, can't wait!
You won’t be desappointed, such a great movie.
It is genuinely a gorgeous film, you can really see the money invested right there on the screen.
Krótko mówiąc film zajebisty, byłem z narzeczoną i też była zadowolona jak na jej wybredny charakter w stosunku do filmów
This looks epic! And so beautifully made. 🤩 Can’t wait to see a new version of this story in cinemas!
I was reading some unrelated story and suddendly The Count of Monted-Cristo popped into my mind. I decided to search for the story/the movie on Netflix, couldn't find it. A Google search brought me here, unbeknownst to me there was a newly released version of the movie. I read the book when I was a teenager growing up in the Caribbean and I am now in my late 50's and it still remains my favorite story/book of all times. Now, going to look for where I can watch it...
I've loved the count of monte cristo since I was a freshman in high school and I'm going to enjoy watching this. Hope it'll be available in America.
In december
Это просто невероятная история!! Фильм снят просто потрясающе!!! Пьер Нинэ очень классно сыграл!! Спасибо за такую экранизацию!! ❤
it looks really good ! Pierre Niney is an excellent choice as Edmond Dantès. can't wait to watch it !
Nah, his face is too skinny
Don't know why, but for the moment I don't really see him as Monte-Cristo. But Lafitte as Villefort, that should be great.
@@SocietyOfOne he fit the description of Monte-Cristo
@@aegnor2102 I'll re-read the novel and be the judge
Yeah, I really like him for the role, and he's about the right age too - with the right makeup, he can look the part for both the younger and the older version of Dantes.
First, The Three Musketeers, and now this. I'm loving these remakes of classics I grew up reading.
Pathé did justice to the Three Musketeers remake, and this is looking like being just as marvelous 👌🏾👌🏾
No, he didn't. He changed an insane amount of stuff in the story, starting with the characters' ages (everyone way older than they should be), then going on to new subplots, then the sexuality of Porthos, the ethnicity of Constance, and so on and so forth.
This movie is one of the best movie i've ever seen i even saw it two times
The movie is great. Hope it will perform well at the international
Wow, this looks so gooooooood! I can't wait. There's nothing more satisfying than a great revenge story.
This looks insanely good! Can’t wait to see it in theaters theater!
I hope we will see this in Kazakhstan. Great story of brilliant author!
The best book I read. Dumas was masterful in story telling.
Please tell me this will come to U.S Cinema, I have watched both theatrical versions and now a 3rd done by the French for an amazing French story!!
Hoping this comes to the U.S. to be appreciated.
I have just watched this masterpiece! Stunning, beautiful and outstanding!
I loved the 2002 Count of Monte-Cristo and I am definitely excited for this one!
It's hard nowadays to get excited for new adaptations of classic works; however as a huge fan of the book this looks promising.
French are too good at movies. Et j’adore Pierre Niney!
Oui, Pierre Niney, un des meilleurs acteurs de sa génération.
French cinema is pure art ❤
Truly amazing, a pure masterpiece
The most iconic story ever graced to us.
It's one of the best movies that I have seen so far this year.
Absolutely well-done film.
I've watched all the existing versions.. can't wait to watch this one
which one is your favorite and why?
@@MariarsClara the one with Gerard Depardieu. Such a great actor and imposing character
Unbelievably brilliant! Pierre Niney is at his very best.
Please let this be released in America!
Absolutely love Dumas' masterpiece, I sincerely hope for this version to be good as previous films, never fully matched the captivating beauty of the book. It looks promising and can't wait to watch it
I loved the Jim Caviezel version. Can't wait to see this, especially in its native language.
One of the best stories ever written
No adaptation can exceed my imagination/visualization of the whole story of the book. That are still in my mind. Chapter by chapter. It's like my own world that I truly adore. but I'm really excited to watch this film... Idk when it'll be released on digital tho
I read the book at school in ancient time. It was very interesting and was the best book I ever read. Very absorbing and gives understanding about life.
Now will watch the movie. To be more respectful to the book it should have been cast into series of several episodes.
I love The Count of Monte-Cristo.
I fell in love with this story from the American version. Then I read the book a realized a TON was left out. This movie does a better job even though things were changed. I lome that they made it 3 hrs.
Gives me the chills, how awesome this movie will be
Un chef d’œuvre !
Je dois voir ce film!
À notre époque, il n'y a pas d'épopée. Bien sûr, c'est une épopée qui vaut la peine d'être vue.
Un grand film à voir absolument sur grand écran.
The best version that I have seen so far according to this preview. Very much looking forward to seeing it.
This looks like the best film adaptation so far.
The film is just amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i heard it 2 years backkk ... still gives me chills..... best revenge story ever written🥶🥶🥶

I just saw this movie in the cinema, and it's absolutely stunning! It might be my new favorite film! My partner lives in the UK, and I would love for him to see this movie. How can I make this happen? Where will this film be available with English subtitles, as in the trailer here? For exemple, It's mentioned that the subtitles will not be available on Amazon Prime.

Je viens d'aller voir ce film au cinéma et il est absolument magnifique ! C'est peut-être mon nouveau film préféré ! Mon conjoint habite au Royaume-Uni et j'aimerais énormément lui faire découvrir ce film. Comment faire ? Où ce film sera-t-il disponible avec des sous-titres anglais, comme dans la bande-annonce ici ? Par exemple, il est indiqué que les sous-titres ne seront pas disponibles sur Amazon Prime.
First the three musketeers and now this, France is telling its own stories! Can’t wait
This is NOT trailer but - short version of movie 🤨
I'm so glad I didn't watch this, so I enjoyed in the movie
Really GREAT MOVIE 💫💫💫
after looong time, I watched something I like from the first seconds -
acting, sound, scenario -
3 hours flew like a bird
Amazing movie, carried away with the story and the scenery. Beautiful to watch !
I hope they can make Dantès and Haydée together. After all, this is the ending of the original work.
Sadly no :( I'm really mad
@@daariaa1790 The Japanese manga version follows the book.
@@daariaa1790wait how do you know that?
@@Melinoe1831nowadays u can find all the new movies on internet, didn t u know that.
i have seen the film, haydée goes with the son of the blond guy in red and the ex fiancée of monte cristo married with the blond guy(they are cousins but the blond guy still was in love and she accepted because she thought monte cristo was dead)
Nice how they changed thing and still this is Monte cristo … very very well made for the Cinema ! Good job 👏
I hope we get a limited release here in the US, I need to see this in the cinema!
I read it for the first time when I was 10 years old, I just liked the cover. Then I reread it again when I was 18, and watched many movie adaptations, but none of them conveyed the feelings that Dumas put into this story. I hope this time it will be successful, today I'm going to the cinema.
Please write your review
So I watched the film, and while the director took several liberties with the original story-adding new characters and events-it still left a lasting impression. It doesn’t follow Dumas word for word, but we have to remember that Dumas himself drew inspiration from real-life events. The casting is on fire, and the OST alone deserves an Oscar.Out of the many attempts to bring this masterpiece to the screen, I’d say this take is probably the most successful. However, in my imagination, the book, with its authentic characters and original storyline, will always live on.
