The Count of Monte Cristo is a 2002 film, the 10th film based loosely upon the book of the same name, by Alexandre Dumas, père. It was directed by Kevin Reynolds and starred Richard Harris, James Caviezel, Dagmara Dominczyk, Guy Pearce and Luis Guzman. It loosely follows the general plot of the novel (the main storyline of imprisonment and revenge is preserved), but many aspects, including the relationships between major characters and the ending, have been changed, simplified, or removed, and several action scenes not in the novel have been added, presumably to satisfy modern-day action fans. In one deviation from the novel, Edmond's escape from the Chateau D'If is discovered before the two jail workers can throw the body bag containing him into the sea; thus making it necessary for Edmond to kill one of them before he escapes. The character of Sultan Ali Pasha's daughter Haydee, whom Edmond ends up marrying in the novel, is completely missing from this film version, though she was included in many others. The movie met with modest box office success, and surpassed its budget bringing in about $75 million worldwide.

[haynau1849]

What a pity! Maybe the worst film ever made of Dumas' book. Just compare it to the Richard Chamberlain movie or the brilliant 4-part TV film starring Gerard Depardieu - and you'll never like this piece of Hollywood crap again...
