The Man in the Iron Mask is a really good and enjoyable film with lots of great and funny moments. the idea of the film felt pretty original to me, even though it's based on the novels by Alexandre Dumas, I still felt I was watching a movie that was written for the big screen instead of based on other material. the idea of continuing the story of the three musketeers was brilliant. add the plot of replacing the king louis with his mysterious twin brother and you get a pretty good story. I didn't feel bored at any point and most of the time it went good. without dragging time of the story. the ensemble of cast is another positive thing about the film: Leonardo DiCaprio, Jeremy Irons, John Malkovich, Gerard Depardieu and Gabriel Byrne are all terrific and well acclaimed actors. each and every one of them does his best in this movie. totally worth watching.
