Well designed, but kind of flat rendition. Too long, and too serious about itself. Some good swordplay.
Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis:
Handsome retelling of the durable Alexandre Dumas tale of a man unjustly imprisoned and encased in an iron mask--because his very existence threatens the reigning king of France, the young, selfish Louis XIV. The fate of both are soon in the hands of the aging but still passionate Musketeers. It would be hard to miss with that cast; the film is quite enjoyable, but it does go on too long.
