I love this very underrated film. It does have a couple cheesy effects but other than that it's a great story and it takes multiple viewings to fully understand the depth of the whole thing. Which for me, I love that sort of thing and it gives the movie a rewatchability factor that most films don't have. It's loosely based on the book: The Club Dumas by Arturo Perez-Reverte which is an excellent novel to read. And remember: "Even Hell has it's Hero's Senior."
