pointyfilippa The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.

unbrokenmetal A year after her second husband Philippe died in battle, king Louis (Jacques Toja) asks Angélique if she is available to go on a diplomatic mission for him: meet the ambassador of Persia, Bachtiary Bey (Sami Frey). Diplomacy is not exactly Angélique's field, but the king encourages her: "You are an impossible woman, but please stay as you are." The reward is the castle of her first husband, Count Peyrac, how could she refuse? The castle brings back old memories. The first meeting with Bachtiary Bey at a public execution, however, is not going well, because he is not used to listen to proud and determined women, but then there is an unexpected interruption...Here we go again, the adventure continues, and the addition of exotic friends and enemies, including even a group of satanists at a black mass, keeps it interesting. Angélique seems more confident now, after she was only chased and victimized in the previous part. I voted 8/6/7/6/6 for the 5 movies of the series.

petarmatic 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!

MartinHafer Angélique is apparently one dangerous woman to love. So far, in the previous films, she had sex with three men and they soon died. Now, at the prologue to this third film, you see her brand new husband who she wed at the end of the second film...and of course, he dies! I felt like yelling out to each man she slept with in this film to run! While she herself never killed anyone, the results are still hard to discount--two lovers and two husbands dead.Soon after this latest 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. Later, the Prince returns to get a thank you bit of nookie and I automatically assumed he'd soon be dead.Later, she is summoned to Louis' court and it appears she's about to become his mistress. However, when she learns that her first husband might not be dead, she leaves in search of him--a good idea since someone is trying to poison her at Versailles. Unfortunately, whoever dislikes her isn't just trying to get her away from the King, as they soon make another attempt to poison her in her own palace (this, by the way, is a particularly cool scene). Does it ever end for poor Angélique?! Just before she can go off in search of her missing husband, Angélique accidentally stumbles into a Satanic cult at Versailles!! And it's not the nice Satanic cults that give out donuts and candy on pagan holidays, but the baby sacrificing kind! Will our dear heroine survive? Will she get back her scarred but sexy Marquis? Will men stop dying once they have sex with her? Tune in to find out for yourself.Overall, this film is a good bit better than the second sequel. The second had even more plot elements and twists than this one--too many for one film. Here, though there seems to be everything but the kitchen sink thrown in, at least it's easier to follow and more satisfying.

dbdumonteil "Angélique et le roy" is Anne et Serge Golon's peak:their novel successfully recreates the atmosphere of Louis the fourteenth 's court,with its intrigues,and its incredible "Etiquette".Their depictions are vivid and colorful.They have never blended so intimately Angelique's adventures with the historical events:and there 's a lot of 'em:war in Holland,the sumptuous feasts which celebrated victory,the rise of Madame de Montespan and the fall of Louise de La Vallière as favorites of the Sun King,the poisons affair,Henriette d'Angleterre's death,et al.Of course,there are some mistakes (the book was written in the fifties):Monsieur ,frère du roi (king's brother),was never the villain depicted by the Golon,and his wife's(Henriette) poisening was never proved(and the historians reckon it's unlikely).What about the movie?It's an almost complete loss.The scenarists took what was the most spectacular-Angélique meets a Persian prince and is almost raped,she attends a black mass- and left the rest,all I mention above."Indomptable Angélique" and "angélique et le sultan" the two final episodes of the saga are,if possible,worse.One should note,however,that only the third part of the novel was transferred to the screen.Philippe ,who plays a prominent part in the novel ,disappears in the prologue!If only more people knew the novels...Alas!
