Synopsis
The King's Musketeers (Moschettieri del Re, 2018) is an Italian comedy-adventure you can watch online on iFILM. Years after their glory days, the famous four have gone soft. d'Artagnan chops meat at a market stall and nurses a bad knee, Athos buries himself in romance novels, Aramis has taken vows at a monastery, and a plump, gloomy Porthos drowns his sorrows in wine.
Then Queen Anne of Austria pulls them out of retirement for one final job: her son Louis is in danger, and so is the kingdom. The aging heroes strap their swords back on, joints creaking and uniforms a size too tight. Director Giovanni Veronesi skips the solemn Dumas swashbuckler and serves a gentle farce about getting old, with Pierfrancesco Favino, Valerio Mastandrea, Rocco Papaleo and Sergio Rubini happily playing the fool.
It's an undemanding evening watch: chatty, warm, full of broad Italian humor and real affection for worn-out men who still believe in all for one. Stream The King's Musketeers (2018) online on iFILM.
