The Count of Monte Cristo

“This movie is just an ABSOLUTE BANGER; I first saw it on a long flight LAX-SIN and was stunned and delighted (even if you've seen previous versions, I guarantee this is the best one). 3 hours long and in French but ZIPS by and you're sad when it ends. It's got everything: action, mystery, romance, yearning, revenge, shipwrecks, prison breaks, Mission Impossible-like disguises in 19th century France. Justice for Edmond Dantes!”
