A secret society, the Knights of Aragon, seeks to keep the United States from achieving manifest destiny -- and only the legendary Zorro (Antonio Banderas) can stop them. Unfortunately, Zorro, also known as Don Alejandro de la Vega, has problems of his own: His wife, Elena (Catherine Zeta-Jones), is divorcing him for spending too much time pursuing heroics and not enough being a father to their young son. But it isn't long before the whole family gets caught up in stopping the Knights.

Zorro can survive a lot of things, but it looks like he can't survive marriage.

There’s also a secret plot involving awesome explosives, but you couldn’t manufacture a bigger bomb than this.

That opening, alas, is the only time The Legend of Zorro hits, and keeps, its stride. Campbell moves the picture in fits and starts, elongating scenes we'd rather see cut short and ending others before they even have a chance to develop.

Rated: 2.5/4

Film Frenzy

The presence of Anthony Hopkins is sorely missed, but Banderas and Zeta-Jones remain a sexy and spirited screen couple.

Rated: 3/4

Lacking the spark, spunk and sexiness of Mask, Legend is a laboured and listless follow-up.

Rated: 2.5/5

This faithful sequel's major fault just might be that it's so similar to its predecessor that it fails to stand out; but as it's transpiring, it's quite enjoyable.

Rated: 7/10

Such a disappointment. As a fan of The Mask of Zorro, I was expecting the same level of thrill and intrigue. Unfortunately, The Legend of Zorro felt like a watered-down version of its predecessor. I do not know if it was because the studio was aiming for a PG rating or something more family-friendly, but the result was too cartoonish and cheap. The dialogue was overacted, performances were overdramatic and most of the scenes could have been picked out of a daily soap opera. The addition of the child was unnecessary, annoying, and distracted from the other characters. Ultimately, there was nothing special about The Legend of Zorro, which is disappointing because of the greatness of the first film.

The Legend Of Zorro is a movie that is a lot better than it's predecessor with a darker tone that can waver but it is enjoyable.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Let's keep in mind this is PG, so park your pretentious anlysis elsewhere. That being said, not a fan of the couple squabble between Zorro and spouse. This vehicle is not as intriguing as that of the first film. Serviceable but nothing to write home about
