- Despite trying to keep his swashbuckling to a minimum, a threat to California's pending statehood causes the adventure-loving Alejandro de la Vega (Banderas) -- and his wife, Elena (Zeta-Jones) -- to take action.
- The Legendary Zorro goes off on another adventure to protect the future of California and its citizens. This time, he fights against evil-doers with the help of his beautiful wife, Elena, and their precocious young son, Joaquin. Alejandro De LaVega is torn between two worlds: his life as Zorro and his life as a family man. After Alejandro once again breaks his promise to stop wearing the mask, Elena leaves him, and soon begins seeing Armand, a haughty French Count. But a mysterious explosion in the desert leads Zorro to believe that there's more to Armand than meets the eye, and our hero is intent on finding out what that is. Little does he know, there are others working to uncover certain truths as well.
- Banderas and Zeta Jones in a sequel to one of the late 90's best action movies? I was primed for this one from the moment I knew it was being made! Well put together, story makes sense for basically a family movie and the family angle plays out well if a little predictably. Lots of great action scenes and all the swashing and buckling you could ask for from both sides this time as both husband and wife get in their fair share of donnybrooks. The villain, well played by Rufus Sewell tries to steal the show but it really is the De La Vegas show all the way. The only complaint I could possibly make really is that the movie is well over two hours long, which can lead to squirming and running around for the younger set, but it is a fun ride.
- The Legend Of Zorro<br/><br/>The movie was funny wheel i mean the little boy made the movie. if i had to rate this film i give it a 4. it wasn't that good to me.. i wasn't really paying attention until i heard the little boy talking. but i was told that it is based on a true story. but the movie didn't seem realistic, so... I'm in doubt. i mean the whole set up was boring... and i still don't get why the the man didn't want his son to know he was Zorro. the man seen that his son was taking after him.. wanting to fight and everything.. and he still didn't tell him. maybe thats why i lose interest in the movie. i wouldn't care to watch this movie again even if they came out with a better one.
- The Legend of Zorro is a Saturday matinee entirely lacking in Saturday-matinee thrills or brevity -- what's passable for the first 80 minutes or so becomes intolerable as the movie ticks past the two-hour mark.
- Don Alejandro de la Vega (<a href="/name/nm0000104/">Antonio Banderas</a>) again dons the mask of Zorro to prevent ruthless bandit Jacob McGivens (<a href="/name/nm0157915/">Nick Chinlund</a>) from stealing the ballot box containing the peoples' votes that will determine whether or not California will be admitted to the Union as the 31st state. However, wife Elena (<a href="/name/nm0001876/">Catherine Zeta-Jones</a>) realizes that Alejandro is not about to keep his promise to give up being "the fox", and shortly thereafter he is served with divorce papers. To add insult to injury, Alejandro learns that Elena is seeing wealthy French Count Armand de la Fere (<a href="/name/nm0001722/">Rufus Sewell</a>), who just purchased Don Gallo's vineyard estate. Drunk out of his mind one night, Alejandro witnesses a mysterious explosion near Armand's vineyard, he begins to suspect that Armand is up to no good. The Legend of Zorro is a sequel to <a href="/title/tt0120746/">The Mask of Zorro (1998)</a> (1998) and is based on a story and screenplay by Mexican-American screenwriter Roberto Orci and American screenwriters Alex Kurtzman, Ted Elliott, and Terry Rossio. However, the character Zorro was created by American author Johnson McCulley in a short story, "The Curse of Capistrano", first published in the pulp magazine All-Story Weekly in 1919. About nine years. The Mask of Zorro took place in 1841, the year that Spain handed over governance of California to Mexico. In The Legend of Zorro, California is being admitted to the United States, which took place in 1850. Orbis unum, Latin for one world, is the logo for the Knights of Aragorn, a secret society much like the Knights Templar, that supposedly became very powerful in Europe following the Crusades. They fear that the Union, now comprised of 30 states and about to annex California as the 31st, is growing too powerful and threatens to overshadow Aragorn dominance of the world. As head of the secret society, Armand plans to use the southern states' growing rivalry with the northern states to destroy America. One of the major ingredients in soap is glycerin. Glycerin is also one of the ingredients used to form nitroglycerin, a powerful explosive. Armand is importing soap, which he then manufactures into nitroglycerin and plans to distribute it to the southern states to use in an attack on Washington. Yes and no. Nitroglycerin was first synthesized by an Italian chemist named Ascanio Sobrero in 1847 in a lab at the University of Turin, three years prior to the events in this movie but a patent on the formula for "blasting oil" wasn't issued to Alfred Nobel until 1863. Several of Nobel's factories were destroyed trying to develop and commercially produce the industrial high explosive, the factory in Heleneborg, Sweden in 1864 and the Krummel plant near Hamburg, Germany in 1865. Nitroglycerin wasn't introduced into California until 1866 the same year Nobel established the United States Blasting Oil Company. Three crates were delivered to the Cental Pacific Railroad for blasting the Summit Tunnel through the Sierra Nevada. A handling accident resulted in the destruction of the Wells Fargo office in San Francisco, Ca. and the deaths of 15 people. Because it was the carrier pigeon she had been using to send messages to the Pinkertons. She now realized that her cover was blown. Zorro's plan to blow up the train carrying the nitroglycerin is thwarted when Armand abducts him, Elena, and their son Joaquin (<a href="/name/nm1739844/">Adrian Alonso</a>). After forcing Zorro to unmask in front of Joaquin, Armand takes Elena and Joaquin with him on the train, leaving Alejandro to be killed by McGivens. Suddenly Fr Felipe (<a href="/name/nm0575339/">Julio Oscar Mechoso</a>) shows up (having survived a bullet to his heart, thanks to the crucifix around his neck), and he and Zorro take out Armand's henchmen. McGivens is trapped on a table, and a single drop of nitroglycerin falling on his forehead causes him to explode. Zorro and Toronado then race to catch up with the train, eventually leaping on top of it from a nearby mesa. Unfortunately, the train is about to pass through a tunnel, so Zorro and Toronado are forced to jump through the roof of a livestock car. Leaving Toronado in the car to munch on hay, Zorro seeks out Armand. As he and Armand clash swords in the sitting car, on the train roof, and on the locomotive, Elena and Joaquin run to the back of the train. Elena places Joaquin in the livestock car and detaches it from the train, giving Joaquin instructions to get away when the car stops. She runs back through the nitro car where she is confronted by Ferroq (<a href="/name/nm0617622/">Raúl Méndez</a>). She finally defeats him by putting a bottle of nitro down his pants and pushing him off the train. He blows up, taking out Colonel Beauregard (<a href="/name/nm0122238/">Leo Burmester</a>) and his soldiers, who were waiting along the tracks for the nitro delivery. Unfortunately, the explosion causes a track switch, and the train heads down the tracks where the governor is about to sign the bill making California a state. Meanwhile, Joaquin is surprised to see Toronado in the livestock car and, when it stops, he and Toronado break out and follow the train. When Joaquin sees that the train is headed right for the governor's platform, he has Toronado kick the track switch, diverting the train. Elena and Zorro leap off just before the train hits a large pile of rails, blowing up the train and Armand with it. As Zorro looks on approvingly, the governor signs the bill granting statehood to California. Alejandro later apologizes to Joaquin for not telling him that he was Zorro. In the final scene, Fr Felipe re-affirms Alejandro and Elena's marriage vows, during which the church bells sound the alert that Zorro is needed. As Elena and Joaquin watch approvingly, Zorro and Toronado ride off into the sunset. "It's who we are," Elena explains to Joaquin. Apparently so. The cast lists Abraham Lincoln as being played by <a href="/name/nm2000490/">Pedro Mira</a>. However, The Legend of Zorro takes place in 1850. Abraham Lincoln was sworn in as President of the United States March 4th, 1861. In 1850, he was practicing law in Springfield, Illinois. d6a2afd33b
