Reviews

Amazon.co.uk Review
Alexandre Dumas' classic tale of fraternal squabbling makes a more than satisfactory transition to celluloid with this 1976 made-for-television swashbuckler. Viewers familiar with the more recent Leonardo DiCaprio version may be stymied at first by the non-MTV pace and the rather unhip presence of Richard Chamberlain in the lead role(s). This well-lensed action film overcomes a somewhat poky first half to emerge as a terrific adventure, complete with plenty of derring-do, some sharply pointed dialogue, and a wonderful performance by the incomparably malevolent Patrick McGoohan. Rousing fun for burgeoning rapscallions of all ages. Director Mike Newell would later find success in a different genre with Four Weddings and a Funeral. Ian Holm, Louis Jordan, and Ralph Richardson round out the embarrassingly rich supporting cast. --Andrew Wright

Synopsis
A fine made-for-television production of Alexander Dumas' tale of an evil nobleman who imprisons his brother, and locks his head in an iron mask so that no one can discover his true identity.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great movie - shame about the extra features., 30 Sep 2000
Richard Chamberlain's tour de force efforts in two roles receives its first airing on DVD - and fans won't be disappointed.

However, it would have been great if a few extra features had been added, for example movie trailers (it was a TV movie in the States but had a theatrical release in Europe), or a director's commentary.

That aside, The Man in the Iron Mask remains one of the best adaptations of Alexandre Dumas's work.

Special mention should also go to co-stars Patrick McGoohan (a delightful baddie), Ralph Richardson and a very young Denis Lawson for their excellent performances.

1.0 out of 5 stars EH!!, 16 Jun 2005
Richard Chamberlin appearing in a latter installment of the Dumas saga but not as Aramis? but as the King and the man in the iron mask. Pray tell me where is the sense in that. They should have done all the story with the same charcters or not at all i hope that they will correct this at some point.
