I've never watched any of the film renditions, but this book:






is one of the best books I've ever read. It's the ultimate revenge story,
and he gets his foes back in spades. It's written by Dumas who wrote the
3 Musketeers so the plot isn't exactly the most realistic, but it doesn't
really matter---it's a tour de force of kickass.

I just recently watched this remake with Jim Caviezel. Great revenge movie.



One review from Rotten Tomatoes...

... in a marketplace littered with films that studios have unloaded to make a buck or two... "The Count of Monte Cristo" stands out like a treasure chest half-buried in the sand.

Yes it is. If you're one of the Sith, you're revenging!

That should be avenging, not revenging. smile
Despite the title, it was the Jedi who should have been seeking revenge . . .
The Sith weren't defeated or dethroned from ruling the Republic.
