#COUNTY MOUNTY CARTOON MOVIE#

Strange how our human nature makes revenge so sweet when forgiveness is the right thing to do, but Hollywood has always capitalized on this human failing, making enjoyable films like this. Shortly afterward, he is aided by the other character I found most fun to watch, played by Luis Gusman, who still sounds like he's more at home in the streets of New York but, once again, you suspend belief and just go along for the ride.

For those who might think the first 30-40 minutes of this movie are a bit slow, stay with it as the action picks up once Caviezel escapes from the prison. Ironic that he would be giving Caviezel - who two years later was playing Jesus in 'The Passion Of The Christ' - sermons about believing in God! That's Hollywood! One film you're an atheist, the next you are God. Yes, Harris' teaching stretched credibility as he seems to teach his pupil about everything there is know in life! Harris, too, had some of the best lines in the movie, several very profound statements. Most fun to watch was Richard Harris as 'Priest,' the longtime prisoner who tutors young Jim Caviezel, the man (Edmond Dantes) unjustly imprisoned who exacts his revenge in the last hour of the movie. That was cleared up, and the rest was just enjoying the scenery and performances. I also put on the English subtitles on the second viewing in parts, which helped me understand a few things I missed on the first viewing and had made the film just a bit confusing in several parts. Afterwards, I thought, 'Wow, that was really a satisfying, great film to watch.' Satisfying, of course, to see the typical good guy-gets-revenge tale but also a film which provided some beautiful scenery and photography all the way through: a real treat for the eyes and must-see on a widescreen DVD.

I really didn't appreciate this film until the second viewing.
