Mark Feeney, Boston Globe: Call it the Robert Downey Jr. Meets Sherlock Holmes Effect. A classic popular adventure gets overblown, juiced-up, and generally CGI-ified. Read more
Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune: Seriously: What the hell? Read more
Stephen Holden, New York Times: In the worst possible case, this could go on and on, but please, let's hope it doesn't. Read more
Ben Kenigsberg, Time Out: For the latest update of Alexandre Dumas's novel, Paul W.S. Anderson has added flying battleships and elaborate diamond heists. Read more
Keith Phipps, AV Club: This version of the Musketeers story can't decide if it wants to be an old-fashioned tale of swashbuckling adventure and palace intrigue or a cheeky, effects-heavy rethink of some iconic characters a la the Guy Ritchie-directed Sherlock Holmes. Read more

Alonso Duralde, TheWrap: Jovovich tries hard to be terribly, terribly wicked, but her performance finds a hitherto unknown middle ground between Divine in Pink Flamingos and Halle Berry in Catwoman that's just embarrassing. Read more
Peter Howell, Toronto Star: The very existence of this film illustrates barrel-scraping desperation of the Hollywood kind. Read more
