Early on, I admit that I wasn’t digging it. It was all important stuff, but it was dark. It reminded me of the beginning of Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. I’ll reference that film again later on. Initially, I preferred Fernand Mondego (Guy Pearce) to Edmond Dantes (Jim Caviezel). I don’t know if this was intended, but his character spoke to me, which probably speaks to how awful of a human being I am. Ah well.
