"He is trained to kill. You seem trained to drink. Oh, yes, my friend, you would have fought very bravely, and died very quickly. Who then would avenge your brother?" - Don Diego

Why watch this? This is a fun, action-packed romantic romp. Viva Zorro!

Plot Summary: The aging, original Zorro, Don Diego de la Vega, escapes prison after twenty years, driven by a desire for revenge against the corrupt governor who murdered his wife and kidnapped his daughter. He encounters a young thief, Alejandro Murrieta, who seeks his own vengeance against the governor's right-hand man for the death of his brother. Don Diego trains Alejandro to become the new Zorro, and together they work to thwart the governor's plan to exploit the people and steal California's wealth.

Dad's Preview: Man, I do love a well-done film with lots of sword-play. This updated version of the Mexican hero Zorro's story is exciting with a lot of spicy latino romance thrown in. This is the origin story of Mexico's greatest vigilante, who stands up for the oppressed people under Spain's corrupt rule. Years before Batman, classic literature had Zorro. My dear sister Reba loved film... and so do I.
