Alexandre de La Patelliere and Matthieu Delaporte direct this modern retelling of the classic novel by Alexandre Dumas. Betrayed by his childhood friend Fernand (Bastien Bouillon), sailor Edmond Dantes (Pierre Niney) is found guilty of a crime he didn't commit and sent to the island prison of Chateau d'If. More than a decade later, having studied fencing with fellow inmate Abbe Faria (Pierfrancesco Favino), who also revealed to him the location of a vast treasure hidden on the island of Monte-Cristo, Edmond realises that the time has come to plan his escape. Taking the treasure for himself, he reappears as the Count of Monte-Cristo and becomes the talk of Parisian society. His happiness is short-lived however when he learns that Fernand has married Mercedes (Anais Demoustier), Edmond's own childhood sweetheart. The cast also includes Anamaria Vartolomei, Laurent Lafitte and Patrick Mille.

Le carton de l année 2024 et je comprends....
Mais si il y a certains "changements" avec le roman, ce film est incroyable.
Le jeu des comédiens, les paysages ....
C est le meilleur "Compte de Monte Cristo" que j ai vu.

Très beau film avec des décors magnifiques
Une honte !

La pire adaptation cinématographique du roman (la version avec Gerard Depardieu est encore pire, mais c’était une adaptation pour la télé). Rien à voir avec le roman. Et les acteurs sont affligeants. Reste de belles images pour une histoire vide.
