I seen this movie back when it came out.This movie was full of great stunts, lots of action...and its all backed by a great story.not to mention that Catherine Zetta-Jones is always a pleasure to look at too. And she has never looked sexier than she does in this movie.everything about this movie is great, the scenery is beautiful, the music score is fantastic, the actors are perfect for their roles...and a great plot that centers around love, revenge and justice(extremely well done)you will be glad you watched this one ...it's a wonderful movie. An instant classic that is worthy of the legendary ZORRO namethis movie gives you your moneys worth. and its one you'll want to watch over and over

Applying many of the tricks they would use later for 'Pirates of the Caribbean' writers Ted Elliott & Terry Rossio combine with 'Goldeneye' director, Martin Campbell to bring the legendary hero Zorro to the big screen.It's an entertaining film, with lots of good moments. Antonio Banderas is good fun as Zorro, while I liked the dynamic he had with Anthony Hopkins's character too.It's perhaps a bit overlong, but on the whole this was a good attempt to bring the hero to life for a modern audience.

This movie, is an absolute classic. A nostalgic depiction of heroism, story telling and of course, love.Who isn't amazing in it. Anthony Hopkins delivers an astounding, however subtle performance, as usual. Antonio Banderas; if you didn't love him before this film, your perception may take an acute turn.And as for Catherine Zeta-Jones; She's breathtakingly beautiful, her performance is sensational and her chemistry with the camera surly cut Martin Campbell's directorial duties in half.James Horner, even in your absence, your compositions still transcend.A definite 9/10. This movie did what it was supposed to; it engaged. It told a tale.

Bob Kane said in Many Interviews that Zorro was the Inspiration for His Creation Batman. The Black Outfit (Cape and Mask), the Nightly Adventures, the Black Horse (Batmobile), the Cave, the Dual Identity, and the Bat Symbol Everywhere (Z).So Young Fan Boys there You Go. Zorro is One Cool Character who Predated Batman by Twenty Years. Antonio Banderas and Anthony Hopkins Bring the Character to New Life in this Wonderful, Fun, Exciting Adventure. The Film Combines Humor, Pathos, Action, and Romance in a Blend of Old Style Entertainment that Never Really Goes Out of Style.Everything Clicks. The Movie does Go On a Bit Long and is in Danger of Wearing Out its Welcome but Things Climax Just in the Nick of Time. It is Almost All Done for Real with Just a Smidgen of CGI and it is a Welcome Change and it All Comes Together as a Movie for All Ages. For Once, the Big Budget is Not Wasted. There are Strong and Charismatic Performances and Characters Across the Board, the Cinematography is Stunning, the Music, Costumes and Sets are All Finely Tuned for an Excellent Effort at Some Old Timey Fun.
