THE COUNT OF MONTE CRISTO Official Trailer 2 (2024) 

That one was so Epic..

That one was okay if you didn't read the book, but it took way too many liberties for my taste. Hope this adaptation stays more faithful to the book.

Check out the 1975 version with Richard chamberlain. I believe it’s on you tube.

Per favore quel film è orrendo e penoso|

I read the book and watched several adaptations. The Soviet adaptation with Viktor Avilov as the cunt is the best adaptation. And I say that the film with Jim Caviziel is a ridiculous film. Albert being the Count's son and suddenly becoming father and son. Even if he was his biological son, Albert was much more likely to become the Count's enemy than Brutus was to Julius Caesar, despite everything Caesar did for him.

With one of the worst line deliveries ever. “Rome!” I laugh every time.

The 2002 version is a typical bad American movie. This film will be as bad as the terrible 2002 adaptation. That alliance scene is stupid. Do you think Mercedes presenting the ring to Edmond would have the same effect as Cleopatra, a young princess who was cultured, having to appear rolled up in a carpet to Julius Caesar? The count was a rich and powerful man, he would have a young lover just like Julius Caesar had Cleopatra. And the duels. How stupid. The trap that Edmond set for Dnglars and Fernand would never work, it would be more likely that he would go after him like Marcus Antonius after Julius Caesar's assassins. And they wouldn't be individual duels, there were possibly other people involved as well when Mark Antony went after Cassius and Brutus. That fanfic written by the stupid Jay Wolpert would never be the best adaptation of the book. The film only shows the low repertoire of the American screenwriters.

Plus with a young Superman That movie is just an amazing masterpiece

I don't believe you read the book. The differences between this movie and the book are huge!

@@bp4187 the book was better but that’s always the case

@bp4187 Assumptions will always make you the A S S. 😉 There's not much difference, and if there was, you would've labeled the differences and not set yourself up to look like an A S S.

I suspect your "modern touches" were all in the original book. The disguises certainly were.

In the book, the Count is a drug user and Albert is engaged to a lesbian girl who runs away with another woman. And the count prefers a young odalisque over Mercedes. The book was written in 1846.

The film with Jim Caviezel is the worst adaptation of the book. A typical cheap adventure film and not a complex story like Cleopatra with Liz Taylor.

@@johannesdesilentio6036 The worst adaption of the book? lol, so what!

@@johannesdesilentio6036 Worst adaption but hands down still the best imho. And I've read the book and saw the Richard Chamberlain versiontoo. Jim's will always be my favorite. Or will it... Dun dun DUUUUUNNNN...

They did not even bring in Pachanga to this one...hard pass

The traps and revenge scenes are so obvious that they are comical. Cassius and Brutus fled Rome after Caesra's death and had to be chased by Mark Antony to Greece where they were defeated in battle and committed suicide. Do you think French high society would go to a stranger's party? The party scene was a joke. When Cleopatra went to Greece and had a party on a boat, Mark Antony didn't go to a stranger's party, she went to the Queen of Egypt's party The wedding ring scene is so ridiculous it's laughable. Do you think the count's ex-fiancée would have the power of seduction that the young queen Cleopatra had when she got off the carpet and seduced Julius Caesar? The count would have a young lover just like Julius Caesar had Cleopatra. And liking this mediocre film won't make it a classic. Any careful analysis reveals the mediocrity of the film.

It is a book

@@shazzthedon is that a question or statement?

absolutely

coincido, el mejor, hasta deja una moraleja

I totally agree. I picked it up on audiobook and had to get through it slowly I almost stopped, but I persevered and that book just blew me away. You can never forget about it and it forever changes the way you see things.

I think they did. There is a TV series with Gerard Depardieu

You're in luck. There's a Count of Monte Cristo series in post production starring Sam Claflin as the count and Jeremy Irons as Abbé Faria.

totally agree. I didn't like the Jim Caviezel version. didn't do it for me. This trailer looks pretty good though.

@@jartist I liked parts of that movie. I just LOVED/LOVE the 75 Version. And yes, I'm looking forward to another version.

The film with Jim Caviziel is the typical bad American film. American cinema is repelled by low-level and intellectual screenwriters. And this file seems to want to compete with the terrible film with Jim Caviziel to see which is the worst adaptation of the book. The lack of reading of classics and history among American writers leads them to write low-quality stories. Meidocre Jay Wolpert's stupid idea of ​​introducing duels into the story. When Mark Antony went to avenge Julius Caesar's death, he did not duel with Julius Caesar's killers, just as Julius Caesar did not duel with the pirates who kidnapped him when he sought revenge. Only in stupid films like the weak Gladiator have duels. In the relative story of Gladiator, Emperor Commodus did not die in a duel. And what nonsense making a rich and powerful man like Edmond go back to his ex-fiancée. When in real life he would have a young and beautiful lover like Julius Caesar had Cleopatra. The film with Jim Caviziel is so bad that it shows the low level of quality of American screenwriters who write rubbish like Pirates of the Caribbean, Troy.

1979 miniseries ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XFnkenw20a8.html The father of one of the directors of this film was the director of the 1979 miniseries and there will still be a miniseries with Sam Claflin.

Of course a 2-3 hours movie Is not enough for this story.

I read the book and watched several adaptations. The Soviet adaptation with Viktor Avilov as the cunt is the best adaptation. And I say that the film with Jim Caviziel is a ridiculous film. Albert being the Count's son and suddenly becoming father and son. Even if he was his biological son, Albert was much more likely to become the Count's enemy than Brutus was to Julius Caesar, despite everything Caesar did for him. .

Si t'es francais c'est une honte que tu penses que la version de Jim peut battre celui de 1998 de gerard depardieu

Book is super long, but holy shit its worth it. Dantes is like batman

If you thought the Caviezel movie was flawless, you really need to read the book. The story is an order of magnitude more awesome and epic than even that great movie. It really needs a whole TV miniseries to be portrayed well. The four villains (jealous colleague, drunkard friend of the family, jilted ex-boyfriend, and corrupt prosecutor) do more than just ruin Dantes life. They continue to be villains during all the time Dantes is in the Chateau D'If. When Dantes returns as the mysterious Count of Monte Cristo...he is on a mission to reward those who did good, restore those who had been victimized by the villains, and punish the guilty. The story arcs of Benedetto, Haidee, Albert, Eugenie and Louise, Valentine, Heloise, Maximilien, etc. etc. are astonishing in and of themselves...and their stories of evil or victimization and the interaction with Dantes revenge is tight and excellently paced. The revelations are epic and the evils done actually outstrip those done to Dantes. The first evil is basically just an hors d'oeuvres compared to what has been done to others. Plus, the overarching theme (what to do when evil is done to you) is really well fleshed out. You start the novel horrified at Dantes naivety and the ruthlessness of his 'friends'...by the time he escapes and finds out how deep the villainy has gone, you are all in on the 'revenge is good, everyone must pay' mentality. But by chapter 89 or so, you start to become sick and horrified yourself at just how far Dantes will go with his revenge. By the end, Dantes will pass through further stages of response on his path to finding a healthy place...both for himself, and the rest of the characters in the novel. I really, REALLY recommend reading the whole book.

The 2002 movie was funto watch but bears little resemblance to the book. How could it? The book is 1200 pages long.

The adaptation with Jim Caviziel is very bad. A rich and powerful man like the count would have a beautiful and beautiful lover like Julius Caesar had Cleopatra. The 1988 adaptation shows the love between the count and his new bride. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VQ4FAL5gpCM.html

Read the book for fucks sake. It’s entertaining, sure. But your boosting hard

I actually expected worse. It can be worse. Be glad Netflix or Disney didn't do it. Yet.

I see what you did there... 😀

Like cleaning your ears with silk...?

Are you quite sure it was a Shakespeare Festival?

The 2002 version is an American parody of the book.

Ma avete mai visto un film?🤣🤣🤣🤣

Kings to you, Fernand!

this story is french and not american, usa is a shit country with no history

The 1979 French miniseries with Jacques Weber is as faithful as the 1964 French miniseries. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-b1eMRVrncjA.html

Read the book. Better still the audiobook. It's something like 50 hours. It's in RU-vid for free

The 2002 adaptation omits the count's young bride who is inspired by Queen Cleopatra. Just as Caesar and Cleopatra join forces against Cleopatra's brother and his advisors, the count and his new bride unite against a common enemy, Fernand. A rich and powerful man like count could make you a young lover just like Caesar had Cleopatra. Why would he return to Mercedes?

@@GaiusJuliusCaesar-dx9nl I wouldn't know. Only ever read the OG version

The 2002 adaptation is the worst adaptation of the book. The best adaptation is the prisoner of Château D'if (1988). The 2002 adaptation omits the count's young bride who is inspired by Queen Cleopatra. Just as Caesar and Cleopatra join forces against Cleopatra's brother and his advisors, the count and his new bride unite against a common enemy, Fernand. A rich and powerful man like count could make you a young lover just like Caesar had Cleopatra. Why would he return to Mercedes?

​@@GaiusJuliusCaesar-dx9nlI haven't watched the russian adaptation, how faithful is it to the book? Also, while I really didn't enjoy the 2002 movie, there's even a version with Gérard Depardieu from the late 90s, that feels like it's even worse in my eyes.

@@suppahfreak4084 The Soviet adaptation ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wLn3tlBUahI.html It is an adaptation divided into three parts.

@@suppahfreak4084 This is the eighth French adaptation. The first major adaptation is the French version from 1918.

Except for the parts where he got it wrong. The hole in his cell was in the floor. He didn’t escape through some pit, he was carried out in a body bag and thrown into the sea.

@@TRechs I'dont see how he escape in this trailer, not sure if the pit scene is the escape scene ,anyway last movie I watched was so unaccurate and ended with the count marrying mercedes

It's not just that. The film has two screenwriters who are also the directors, Alexandre de La Patellière, Matthieu Delaporte. And Alexandre de La Patellière's father, Denys de La Patellière, was the director of the miniseries Le comte de Monte Criso (1979) with Jacques Weber. This is a faithful adaptation of the book, without any changes. And Alexandre de La Patellière is the best adaptation of the book. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-b1eMRVrncjA.html

The Soviet adaptation, The Prisoner of Château d'If (Узник замка Иф, romanized: Uznik zamka If) by Georgi Yungvald-Khilkevich ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-nxEg_5noQ6g.html It's also a faithful adaptation. There's even the end of the count with Haydee. The final scene is the two kissing.

Not sure how you get that from this trailer lol. Looks like a lot of style over substance.

This is a remake of a remake. This story has been made into a film 9 times.

Gerard Depardieu + Ornella Muti

Yup best version ever

France has 7 adaptations and this is the eighth. And there will also be the miniseries with Sam Claflin.

I would suggest not watching it.

It isn't even a remake since they didn't based it from any previous adaptations but the book that is still in the public domain.

Never enough

I know of at least two Egyptian movies based on this story. People love revenge stories. I dont think a film about forgiveness will be very popular.

A rich and powerful man like the count would have a beautiful young lover. The film Julius Caesar (2002) with Jeremy Sisto and Richard Harris playing the dictator Sulla shows this. Caesar despite being married to Calpurnia, he had an affair with Cleopatra who was played by Samuela Sardo. In practice, the film's romantic cliché doesn't work. In the book the count never returns to Mercedes, he already has a young lover.

Most of the screenwriters never understood the book.The Count of Monte Cristo is not an adventure story, it is a suspense story. The Count is not Zorro or Batman, he is much more like Rodion Romanovich Raskolnikov from Dostoevsky's book Crime and Punishment. The Count has the theory that he is an envoy of divine providence and that he comes to punish criminals who have escaped justice and Raskonilkov developed the theory of the great man and that he would be free to transgress the laws for the common good. Both develop theories that place them above the laws. The count wanted to punish those responsible for him staying at Château D'if for 13 years and Raskonilkov wanted to steal money from a user to help his family. Both created theories to justify their actions. Raskonilkov murders the loan shark, Aliona Ivanovna to steal her money, he ends up murdering Elisabeth Ivanovna, Aliona's half-sister, because she witnessed the crime.Edmond, when carrying out his revenge against the prosecutor Gerard de Villefort, caused the death of his young son, Edouard. The death of these two innocent people made the protagonists feel remorse for their actions. Raskonilkov surrenders himself to the police and confesses his crime . The Count of Monte Cristo forgives Danglars to get relief for his conscience. The count abandons his theory about being an agent of divine providence and Raskonilkov abandons his theory of the great man. People cannot transgress the laws to do what they think is right, because the results will always be disastrous.

Second that

Remakes are always better when they put in blacks and Mexicans...

According to critics, Haydee and Albert will fall in love. If you want a faithful adaptation, there's the 1979 version ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XFnkenw20a8.html

And thank god for that...because Jim's version was a travesty ...but most who like it have a very small repertoire of movie watching anyways ...so it is like asking someone who drinks sunny D grape juice to give his opinion on a Chateau Bordeaux 1950 for example

Yet we don't. The first one is perfect enough.

​​@@traveler7353The first one being the silent film from 1908?...
