Movie Review: The Man in the Iron Mask (1998)
All I knew was I was about to watch a movie that featured the Musketeers and a super-young Leo DiCaprio. I love a good swashbuckler, don't you? After finally watching it, I truly can't imagine what took me so long.

The king in the movie, historically speaking, is the son of the king from all of the other Three Musketeers movies. So, you know, that's cool. I can be a French royalty geek if I want to-don't judge. You keep watching to see if they'll actually get to overthrow the king. Thing is, it still feels like you're missing a piece of the puzzle. You are, and that's fine-just keep watching.

MEMORABLE SCENE:
I like the scene in which the Musketeers show "magnificent valor." You'll see.

Aramis: "Porthos! I'm praying."
Porthos: "I just said you're praying. Are you deaf, too? I know you're blind, because if you'd seen the tits that just walked out of here, you'd have tears in your eyes."
RATING:
A lively 9 our of 10. Even if you don't like period pieces, this was great fun to watch!
