The Man in the Iron Mask- Wow!! I am so happy you loved this phenomenal, and powerful movie. It's really incredible! I absolutely love this movie so much and all of the actors in it. It's definitely another of my favorite movies for sure. Such an amazing cast, who play these incredible characters I love from one of my all time favorite classics... The Three Musketeers. We have Jeremy Irons as Aramis, Gabriel Byrne as d'Artagnan, John Malkovich as Athos, and Gerard Depardieu as Porthos. But best of all, we also have Leonardo DiCaprio who plays duel roles as King Louis XIV and Philippe... twin brothers separated at birth so one could become King, while the other was forced to become a prisoner in an iron mask to hide his true identity and heritage. I absolutely love Leonardo DiCaprio in this movie, in both roles because he plays Louis and Philippe beautifully. One is so evil and the other is so kind. And his acting is absolutely phenomenal. Leonardo DiCaprio is an actor who I like sometimes, and other times I don't like him. For me... The Man in the Iron Mask is easily my favorite movie and roles with him in it. I also very love each one of the Musketeers, just as I loved them in The Three Musketeers as well. I admire these men deeply for their valor, honor, love, and the friendship they show and stand for. If only all men, women, and our leaders lived up to the morals and strengths of these men. And the cast for each of these characters are phenomenal too. I've read The Three Musketeers when I was fairly young, and again years later a few times. Like I said above, it is one of my favorite novels, written by the phenomenal author... Alexandre Dumas, who also wrote another of my all time favorite classic novels... The Count of Monte Cristo. What a phenomenal author, who has written yet another phenomenal story. The Man in the Iron Mask is loosely based on a true story about a man who did truly live the years of his life trapped within an iron mask, yet no one ever knew his true identity. So because of this, rumors were spread about who he might be, and this classic and movie comes from the theory that Alenxander Dumas conciveved about this long forgotten prisoner within a mask. And what a phenomenal beautiful theory and story it is. I just deeply love the overall story of the Musketeers, who fight against King Louis to save all of France from the King's tyranny by placing France's righteous and rightful ruler upon the throne, despite d'Artagnan's devotion to protecting the King and his son. And in the end... d'Artagnan tragically, yet honorably gives his life to protect not only the man he comes to learn is his son, but also comes to see as the true and righteous King of France. I also love Queen Anne and her love story with d'Artagnan. I love that we learn he is Louis' and Philippe's father. As I love the backstory we learn through Aramis about how the twins were born and then separated, and how Philippe became imprisoned in the iron mask by Louis. And I love how Queen Anne understands the Musketeers' plan to replace her son for the other she believed to have died, and that she sides with them. And I truly love her relationship with Philippe. So beautiful. I love Athos' kindness towards Philippe and their love when their relationship grows. It is tragic how Louis has Athos' son recalled to his regiment and then killed in battle, all because he lusted for the son's fiancee, Christine. And in the end... Christine hangs herself out of guilt for falling for King Louis' lies and becoming his mistress, all because she wanted to protect her own family. So sad. I love the Musketeers' plan to replace Louis with his brother Philippe, as they teach Philippe how to become Louis, then together they switch the twins at the Masquerade ball. What a brilliant plan. Unfortunately, their plan fails because Philippe is just too kind and d'Artagnan sees through their deceptions. Thankfully, all four Musketeers and brothers to the end come together again in the ending with the same common dream... to stand and fight for a righteous King, knowing that Louis will never be that King they hoped he would become. Tragically... d'Artagnan dies protecting his other son he never knew he had until the end, when Louis strikes out to try to kill Philippe. This is so sad, and this moment always makes me cry every time I watch this movie. ALso... I love how each of the Musketeers under d'Artagnan's command stand up with the in the very end as well. Especially the one soldier directly under his hero, who thrusts his sword against Louis' throat and states... "All I ever wanted was to be him." So powerful and it shows just how much he and the rest of the Musketeers truly looked up to these original four men. As does when each of the other Musketeers turn their heads away and close their eyes out of despair upon being ordered to shoot the Musketeers as they charge them. This whole battle and moment in the end is my favorite scene throughout the whole movie. It's so powerful, touching, and beautiful. And this ending makes me cry every time. Now... I absolutely love the very end after Philippe truly is able to become King upon taking Louis' place for a second time successfully, then declares the Musketeers to be his royal advisers and his truest friends. I also love the funeral, when Philippe asks Athos to allow him to love him like a father, and for him to love him like a son. I love their father/son relationship. And lastly... I love the music and the costumes all throughout this movie as well. The music is powerful and beautiful, and the costumes are elegant and so incredible. Thank you very much for watching this movie for me, Dillon! I truly enjoyed your reaction for this beautiful movie and I am so happy you loved it so much as well. I can't wait for your continued reactions!! Until next time, my friend... Sincerely, Heidi

If you are wanting the backstory of the friendship you should watch The Three Muskateers (I'm partial to the Keifer Southerland version) which tells how Porthos, Athos and Aremis befriend a young d'Artagnan. I loved and was so impressed by Leonardo's portrayal of both Louis and Philippe. You could tell which character just by looking at the eyes which is impressive for a young actor to have that much character in the eyes. This movie has long been one of my favorites. That moment when you realize why d'Artagnan has actually been following the King all this time is just mind blowing. It recalls at the beginning when Athos tells d'Artagnan he doesn't know how it is to feel protective of a son and d'Artagnan looks down. He knows exactly how it feels.

Yes, to the original Musketeers, and...no to the teen-Disney version. The 1973 version with Michael York as D'Artagnan is still the most iconic, and, yes, funniest. Iron Mask was one of several stories where Dumas reunited the characters twenty years later, which is why D’Artagnan is now a legend rather than an ambitious recruit.

Technically, neither brother was the rightful king, both being fathered by a Musketeer.

I waited all movie and reaction long to hear Dillon make the comparison...He never said this was a 'French' Game of Thrones. And Star Wars: "Phillipe, I am your father". Oh, well, a man can hope...but otherwise, great movie/reaction. It truly was beautifully produced and performed.

This is probably my mistake to write this before the end of the video but I understand where you are coming from when you say that the people should be happy they have a new nicer king but it doesn’t work that way. The Musketeers were telling Philippe that you can not be so nice because Louis was such an asshole that any kindness should show that there was something amiss. Everything that went down with Christine at the ball, Louis would have yelled at her or even killed her for embarrassing him in public and Philippe showing so much kindness (which is his nature), it proves that something has happened to their king and someone needs to answer for that. You can’t just look the other way as his army and advisors.

I agree. This movie is actually a 'sequel' to Disney's The Three Musketeers (1993) with Keifer Sutherland as Athos, the humorous Oliver Platt as Porthos, Charlie Sheen as the devoted holy man Aremis, a young Chris O'Donnell as the young d'Artagnan and Tim Curry playing a masterful Cardinal Richelieu. I HIGHLY recommend giving this movie a watch. If you enjoyed The Man in the Iron Mask, you will LOVE The Three Musketeers. In my opinion, both movies are great but the first is just a little bit better!
