Review of Captain Alatriste: The Spanish Musketeer (2006) by Pourya E — 12 Jun 2009

A big budget Spanish movie about a spanish captain fighting for the Spanish Empire. The movie is long and slow, some good bits, not many. I liked the landscapes, and Viggo does his job, ...,. just a bit, if I only didn't speak spanish I would've liked it. I had to mute my TV at some moments coz I couldn't stand his accent. It made the whole story not-believable.

I don't understand why they chose Viggo for this role. They could've chosen someone like Eduardo Noriega, he would've been cheaper! and with no significant change in the quality of the movie.
