[[caption-width-right:330:All for one and one for all!]]

A direct to DVD feature from {{Disney}} that for once isn't a sequel to a much better film or a TV episode compilation. As the name suggests, it's the stars of the ClassicDisneyShorts in the roles of ''Literature/TheThreeMusketeers'', or at least a story similar in nature.

MickeyMouse, DonaldDuck and {{Goofy}} are three janitors who dream of becoming musketeers, but Mickey's size, Donald's cowardice and Goofy's intelligence (or lack thereof) are handicaps from their goal. However, they get their chance when Princess Minnie demands bodyguards from Captain Pete. Since said captain is planning to take over the kingdom, he decides to promote the three, hoping they'll be bungling enough not to ruin his plans.

The story is told by the Troubador, a singing turtle who is supposedly narrating it on live television. (Though not given a real name in the film, WordOfGod has it that the Troubador is an updated version of 1930s Disney character Toby Tortoise.)

Considering it's a DTV movie, it's actually quite an improvement on previous sequels which were mostly excuses to try and kick off (bad) television series.

A world based on the film, called ''Country of the Musketeers'' appeared in ''[[KingdomHeartsDreamDropDistance Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]''.

!!This movie contains the following tropes.
* AdaptationDecay: Admitted by the movie.
** Bizarrely, it seems to be a sort-of sequel to the original Three Musketeers, as the four Musketeers show up at the beginning to inspire Mickey.
* AmusingInjuries
* AnachronismStew: Several examples.
** This movie seems to take place in 17th century France, pre-revolution. And the opera, GilbertAndSullivan's ''ThePiratesOfPenzance,'' wasn't around until 1879.
** Don't get started on the fast food Minnie and Daisy are eating as they discuss romance.
** Indoor plumbing (seen in the opening), Electric lights (during Pete's crowning) and high-quality seamwork (seen on Mickey's and Donald's traditional apparel) certainly were ''not'' in vogue during this time.
* {{Angrish}}: Donald, naturally.
* AsideGlance
* AtArmsLength: The Beagle Boys to Mickey
* AtTheOperaTonight: Cut to the poster and cue the fanfare!
-->'''Pete:''' "Where's dat music comin' from?"
-->'''Pete:''' "I do declare dat's startin' to grow on me!"
* BerserkButton: "French words make me mad!"
* BalefulPolymorph: Donald, despite already being a bird, turns into a literal chicken a few times during the movie to illustrate that he is a coward.
* BetaCouple: Donald and Daisy, with Goofy and Clarabelle forming a ''Gamma'' Couple.
* BondVillainStupidity
* BreakingTheFourthWall: The Troubadour does it repeatedly, and Pete does it briefly.
* ByTheLightsOfTheirEyes
* CallBack: During the first fight with the Beagle Boys, one of them slice through Mickey's musketeer uniform, revealing his trademark outfit underneath. Cue Mickey making his well-known pose before cut to the next frame. Donald is also shown wearing his trademark sailor suit under his uniform when [[spoiler: he decided to quit being a musketeer.]]
* ChangedMyMindKid: [[spoiler:Donald,]] after hearing the Troubadour berate him.
* ChekhovsGun: [[spoiler: The DisasterDominoes sequence]].
* ContinuityCameo: The Musketeers from the book save Mickey, Donald and Goofy when the latter were children. They even autographed Mickey's hat, which has the correct number of ''four'' signatures.
* CowardlyLion: Donald
* CueTheFlyingPigs
* DirectToVideo: One of the better films in this category.
* DisasterDominoes
* DistressedDamsel: Minnie and Daisy
* TheDragon: Clarabelle.
* DressedInLayers: Mickey dresses in at least two layers, and Donald dresses in at least three, judging by the way they rip off their clothes to reveal either Musketeer uniforms or their classic outfits underneath. Even Pete dresses in at least two layers.
* DrowningPit: Captain Pete tries to off Mickey by locking him in a dungeon in Mont-Saint-Michel, which floods when the tide rises.
* DyingAlone: [[spoiler: The fate Pete leaves Mickey to]].
* {{Expy}}: The Troubador is essentially an updated version of Toby Tortoise from the two SillySymphonies shorts.
* ExtremeOmnivore: When Pete is getting the Beagle Boys out of the pit, they are doing things to pass the time (drawing Pete with an arrow though his head for one). One of them was playing with jacks, and when Pete sees them relaxing, he quickly eats all of the jacks and the rubber ball.
* EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses: Minnie is a princess, though she seems to be the monarch of France and a queen in everything but name. No mention is made of any king or queen existing.
* EvilChancellor
* FacePalm: {{Pete}}. Understandable, considering that he is SurroundedByIdiots with the Beagle Boys as henchmen.
* FakeKing
* FallingInLoveMontage: Mickey and Minnie (obviously)
* FramingDevice: The film is told through a live recording of the Troubador reading a comic book.
* FreudianExcuse: Pete says his reason for being evil is because his mom didn't like him. However, he doesn't seem to mind.
* FunnyAnimal
* FurryConfusion: Natch, with Goofy and Pluto in the same movie. Clarabelle and a non-anthropomorphic orange and white cow show up, as do horse-driven coaches.

* LemonyNarrator: The Troubador
* LovableCoward: Donald
* LoveAtFirstSight: Mickey and Minnie
* LoveRedeems: Clarabelle ends up falling for Goofy [[spoiler:while having him executed.]]
* LovesMeNot: Minnie does this in her introductory scene.
* MajorGeneralSong
* MediumAwareness: Pete. "Why'd the music stop?"
** He actually does this twice. When he is bringing The Beagle Boys out of the pit, the scene shifts to the poster for the opera and plays the same music bit again. When the scene shifts back to Pete, he stare at the poster, blinks his eyes a few times and continues speaking.
** He does it a third time when the opera bit happens, saying, "That little ditty's starting to grow on me."
* NeverSayDie: Averted. Everyone is open to admitting that people will die, saying words like "Die" "Death" "Kill" (etc) and Donald is put in a Guillotine at one point. Pete and Clarabelle do use (fairly obvious) euphemisms once, but they make the scene much scarier.
* NiceHat: Mickey treasures a hat given to him by the original Musketeers.
* NotSoHarmless: The little Beagle at first seems like he's incompetent and silly. However it's revealed he's an expert in using the sword, especially a great wicked - looking one.
* OhCrap: Mickey's reaction to the "You Must Be This Tall to Survive this Dungeon" sign when the sewer begins to flood.
* PlotHole: After finding out Pete is the BigBad, how does Donald know his ''exact'' plan, anyway?
** He obviously peeked at the script.
* PostKissCatatonia
* ThePowerOfFriendship: It's what ultimately enables Mickey and co. to emerge victorious.
* PublicDomainSoundtrack: The musical numbers are sung to the tune of classical pieces.
** Pete's VillainSong is set to "In the Hall of the Mountain King" by Edvard Grieg.
** The main theme sung by the Musketeers is set to the Infernal Galop from Offenbach's ''Orpheus In the Underworld,'' better known as the Can-Can.
** Some other classical tunes you'll hear are Blue Danube Waltz by Johann Strauss, Jr., and the "Habanera" aria from Bizet's ''Carmen.''
** The GilbertAndSullivan opera ''ThePiratesOfPenzance'' plays a minor part in the plot. Even though it shouldn't exist yet.
* PitTrap: Pete puts the Beagle Boys in one when he finds out that they were going to kill Minnie, However its subverted in the fact that it is just a few feet deep.
* QuirkyMinibossSquad: The Beagle Boys.
* RedBoxingGlove: When kidnapping Minnie, the Beagle Boys conceal one in a jack-in-the box to lure Goofy into looking at it. Considering that this is a cartoon, its kind of suprising that the glove isn't oversized.
* RunningGag: The same music, which happens to be the chorus of [[ThePiratesOfPenzance "With Catlike Tread"]] playing everytime the opera poster is shown.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Donald. [[spoiler:Don't worry, [[ChangedMyMindKid he comes back around eventually.]]]]
* ShoutOut: To ''TheLionKing'' and ''TheMickeyMouseClub'', among others.
** Pete refers to Minnie as "[[VideoGame/EarthwormJim Princess What's Her Name]]" at one point.
** A ShoutOut to GilbertAndSullivan is also made during the opera scene. They're seeing ''ThePiratesOfPenzance'', and the songs ''WithCatlikeTread'' and ''ModernMajorGeneral'' are heard.
** The multiple Goofy clones appearing is undoubtedly a reference to the recurring use of this phenomenon in his original theatrical cartoons.
* ShownTheirWork: The three protagonists being rescued by ''four'' musketeers, as there was in the original book: Athos, Porthos, Aramis, and d'Artagnan.
* ShutUpHannibal: The Toby Tortoise {{Expy}} incites Donald into this by singing "This is the end"--to the tune of a classic Beethoven song.
* SlapstickKnowsNoGender: Pete did warn Clarabelle about the bricks at least.
* StarCrossedLovers: Minnie is forbidden to date Mickey since he's a commoner. This just attracts Minnie more.
* SurroundedByIdiots: Pete
* ThatRemindsMeOfASong: Justified in some places, since the Troubadour openly admits to wanting to pepper the narration with songs that he wrote; in other parts, not so much.
* VillainSong: "Petey's King of France"
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Pete.
* WorldOfFunnyAnimals
* WouldHitAGirl: Mickey Donald and Goofy pile on Daisy Duck, mistaking her for a bad guy.
** In the comics adaptation, an earlier scene has Mickey tell Donald about recent threats to the kingdom. It seems "[[TheUnseen Prince Gimlet]]" was murdered by a royal waitress with an hors d'oeuvres knife. Hapless Daisy appears to be about to pull off a similar crime.
