You'll love this moive . . . IF you can pretend the story takes place in a parallel universe where the Three Musketeers are like the A-Team — not to mention the way Milady de Winter sword fights like a Ninja and then strips down to a mini-dress with high heels so she can do (I swear to God) a M:I like dive through a room criss-crossed by near-invisible razor wires!
The heroes and the villains so absolutely impossible things at the rate of about six a minute, and you finally realize that this is an action movie that spoofs action movies, while deliberately doing it's damnedest to make all dead authors of classic literature roll over in their graves so fast that the ground tremors register on seismographs.
Except for Jules Verne, who would exclaim, "Magnifique"'!

And did I mention the 15th Century sailing ships with hot air balloons on top so they can fly?
This is the way Jules Verne would have written Alexandre Dumas' novel — if director John Woo went back in time and collaborated with him.
Excusez-moi! Did somebody say, "Post the trailer, Monsieur Brewster!"
Ah! Certainement, mon amie! Enjoy!
