Angelique and the King Trailers

Soon after her latest husband death, the King himself (Louis XIV) meets with our heroine and begs her to help convince the Persian Ambassador to agree to a treaty. However, what they didn't realize was that the handsome Persian was in fact a sexual sadist. So, it is up to the King's half- brother, some Hungarian prince, to save Angélique from the evil troll's clutches.

I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

beautiful people, touching love, adventure and mysteries, Versailles and strange situations. that could be all. a splendid Michelle Mercier as new, strong, determined, mature Angelique and her fight for justice and true love. France of Louis XIV and little more than romanticism, exoticism or a history lesson. a film/a series who reminds more the sensitivity , expectations and innocence of the public from the"60's - East European not the last - than the glamor of a pink history. a film who seduces for the , at first sigh, large circles of chaos. and for the art of the lead actress to create a credible character who defines herself more than by the beauty but for the force and courage. a film for each age. for discover a form of cinema who has origin in the popular novel by Alexander Dumas father and Feval and could be a kind of alternative to many blockbusters.

The third movie is definitely better than the second one. I love the scenes depicting the Versailles, vivid colors of splendid costumes, and that scene when Angelique rides at the beginning of the movie. Of course there are few scenes which I did like, f.i. black mass being held. But not because of the scene itself, but for the plot reasons. It could have been easily omitted but I guess it was done to explain the death of Barcarole (if i spelled correctly). And if I remember it right, Angelique and Joffrey did not meet again until on the boat much later, yet here we saw he rescued her but then escaped and then she goes in pursue of him. Overallm very enjoying!

I liked the first film of this series and I stumbled across the third part. Costumes and cinematography are great, and there a lot of twists and turns in the plot.Acting is very good as well, and it made me a worth wile to watch. I really think they made these films with excellence and interest in a detail.There is too much of romance involved, I guess that age was that way. today it is a whole different matter.France was beautiful then as it is today. Scene of Angelique riding south is a memorable one!

This is the 3rd part of the movie series.After her husband dies in the war,Angelique now back in the nobility,decides to play a part in the court of King Louis XIV. This is probably the best movie of the series mainly due to the several scenes filmed in the gardens of the Versailles,magnificent settings and costumes bright this installment.Also, Angelique,has matured and looks even more impressive and beautiful than ever. In this movie many important events happen that push the story forward but i don't want to give out spoilers.This is an enjoyable movie,good-looking and lighter in dramatic style than the previous 2 parts.
