Amazon.co.uk Review
A lusty and rousing adventure, this calls to mind those glorious costume dramas produced so capably by the old Hollywood studio system--hardly surprising, in that its title character, a de facto Robin Hood in Old California, provided starring vehicles for Douglas Fairbanks and Tyrone Power, the 50s TV hit, and dozens of serials and features. Zorro, a pop-fiction creation invented by Johnston McCulley in 1918, is given new blood in this fast-moving and engaging version, which actually works as a sequel to the story line in the Fairbanks-Power saga, The Mark of Zorro. A self-assured Anthony Hopkins is Don Diego de la Vega, a Mexican freedom fighter captured and imprisoned just as Spain concedes California to Santa Ana. Twenty years later, he escapes from prison to face down his mortal enemy, a land grabbing governor played with slimy spitefulness by Stuart Wilson. Too old to save the local peasants on his own, he trains bandito Antonio Banderas to take his place. Much swashbuckling ensues as Banderas woos Catherine Zeta-Jones, becomes a better human being and saves the disenfranchised rabble. Director Martin Campbell wisely instils a measure of frivolity into the deftly choreographed action sequences, while letting a serious tone creep in when appropriate. This covers much ground under the banner of romantic-action-adventure and it does so most excellently. --Rochelle O'Gorman

5.0 out of 5 stars absolutely amazing!!!!!, 13 Mar 2001
By A Customer
I thought that this movie was absolutely amazing.I am a huge fan of Antonio Banderas and have seen all his movies but this one I find I can watch over and over and over again.Everytime I do watch I see something different to the last time I watched it.I also was pleased that Catherine Zeta Jones was in it as she is my favourite actress.She played her part very well and coming from a spanish background she really looked the part.As I have said, I really loved this movie and watch all the time.If someone was to ask my opinion on a movie to watch I would definately say "The Mask of Zorro".

5.0 out of 5 stars Hopkins is sublime, 17 Jul 2001
By A Customer
Being an avid Anthony Hopkins fan I surprised myself at the long wait I gave myself to watch this. I saw it last night and I thought Hopkins performance was sublime. Not a part I would associate with AH but one in which he pulls it off superbly. Not only that but he looks the part. An excellent film... buy it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Behind the Mask, 21 Jul 2008
By F. S. L'hoir (Irvine, CA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
The first three times I saw this film (twice within a week; and the third a year later), I felt that it fulfilled its promise of being a first-rate, well-acted adventure thriller with delightfully comic overtones. The costumes and production values are also of the highest quality; and the music with its flamenco beats is truly exciting. I enjoyed each viewing immensely.

Anthony Hopkins portrays the elder Zorro with his usual elegant style; Antonio Banderas displays his considerable talent for comedy as Zorro's apprentice who learns (the hard way) to become a swashbuckling swordsman, and Catherine Zeta-Jones represents his perfect foil, in every sense of the term. She also does a smashing dance with Banderas that is both exciting and marvelous to behold.

Although I still enjoyed "Zorro" on my recent fourth viewing, I began to notice some of the flaws that because of the general excellent quality of the film, I chose to overlook during my previous viewings, but which I finally had to acknowledge marred an otherwise romantic adventure film that could be viewed by the entire family. One, of course, is the head in the jar, which, since I know when it is about to occur, I always manage to find something to do in the kitchen until the scene is over. The other is the "tonsil locking"--in the words of Alistair Cooke, former host of Masterpiece Theatre--that passes for kissing in some films nowadays. Even in the otherwise steamy Mexican telenovelas, the hero kisses the heroine in a manner that looks both romantic and artistic, and leaves something for the audience's imagination.
