Movie Reviews of On Guard

Movie Review: Viva la France
Summary: 5 Stars

If you don't mind the movie in French with English subtitles, pick this up. Two scenes may be questionable for the family, but they are brief and overall I consider this a fine family film. The background music is subtle and inspiring, the acting great, the film quality great, the story line great, and the ending marvelous and romantic. Even the fencing is far above par (I spent five years in various sword techniques). Above all, this is a feel-good film that should leave you happy.

Movie Review: "Le Bossu", A Fantastic Film
Summary: 5 Stars

I am a french 15 year old and have watched "Le Bossu" (aka. On Guard)...let me see.....10 times !! :).....When I first watched the film I was a amazed and had to watch it again and again and again, Daniel Auteuil is a handsome and fantasic hero of this film.....its full of adventure, drama, romance, some humor and is everything a Swashbuckleing film should be :)......I highly recommend you rent or buy this film and you too will love this movie as I do :)

Movie Review: If you like the Three Musketeers...
Summary: 5 Stars

This French feature film (with English subtitles) is *not* a Three Musketeers story -- but it has similar attractions. Set in the same epoch, it has sword fights, chases, disguises, pomp, and humor and wit as well as action and drama. The actors took pains to learn how to fence, and the sword fighting looks appropriately lethal. The story is tightly written, the acting outstanding, and the story surprisingly fresh. A movie to enjoy rather than endure.

Movie Review: Grand Entertainment
Summary: 5 Stars

This film barely lasted a few weeks in New York City and I traveled three hours from Connecticut to see it. It was worth the trip. If you like swashbucklers this one's for you. The story is rather intricate but the film moves along fairly quickly and Daniel Auteuil is wonderful as the hero. There is a lovely relationship between Auteuil's character and his daughter.Buy or rent this one--you won't be disappointed.

Movie Review: Perfect name for a swashbuckler
Summary: 5 Stars

Daniel Auteuil stars in what will surely be considered a classic swashbuckler once some time passes so that the film can achieve such status. On Guard is incredibly produced and filmed with super attention to detail from the period, and the story line delivers along with the sword play and action one would expect to see in a musketeer-style adventure film. Richard Lester fans will love it, as I did.
