I knew that Dumas was part black. It wasn't so much the fact that this actor was black, it was the fact that this 'actor' couldn't act and had a silly accent

Because of the hype? It's the nearest Imax to where we live. We thought it would be a great film to see on the big screen. We were wrong (but the sandwich was REALLY good)

agreed. I was very disappointed.

500/465 or .416 Rigby maybe or .477 Jeffreys . . . they were all popular (most still are)

Great review, a nuance view, as one would expect from a Glaswegian reviewer. I'll take your word for it and give it a miss, many thanks.

I agree, long, slow, dark with something missing

How did they get such good actors to participate in such rubbish? I quit halfway

[No, it wasn't worth it. Netflix needs to stop with these big budget action movies and make smaller budget character driven dramas or comedies. This movie doesn't look like it cost $200 million. It's not good at all.] Exactly. Good comment

Why would the DP stand there and operate manually for such a shot. Far safer to look at VTO and operate off to one side? Even start the camera turning over and step away. How did they both get shot?? Every set I've ever been on, guns are treated with great respect, 1st AD checking all the time, Armourer team taking charge of guns between takes . . . . something very wrong here
