Dissapointing dispite the title

Of all of the Muskateer, Man in the Iron Mask movies that I have seen, this version is the worst. It has very slow moving partaking of the characters participation in this movie. Very little action and the action that is in this movie leaves very little excitement. The actors/actresses in this movie act as if they are reading from a card instead of memory. And the costumes in this movie as way out of date, infact, it seems as if the costume designer cannot figure out what century this movie takes place in. Even the wigs worn by the charactors look rediculas and out of style. I was very dissapointed in this film and I give it a 2.
