The Legend of Zorro Movie Synopsis & Plot

The year is 1850 and our swashbuckling crusader is challenged by the most dangerous mission of his life. After fighting to help California become the 31st state of the Union, Zorro (Banderas) must live up to the promise he made his wife Elena (Zeta-Jones) - to give up his secret identity and live a normal life as Alejandro de la Vega. When he hesitates, it threatens to tear them apart.

Now, the same forces that conspired to keep California from becoming part of the United States are plotting to unleash a threat that has been 500 years in the making, a threat that could change the course of history forever. And only Zorro can stop it.

MOVIE REVIEW

In a time where Hollywood seems content to produce often unoriginal and shallow films mostly to turn a profit, the film The Legend of Zorro manages to rise above the rest by adding another adjective to the mix; unnecessary. The film (a sequel to the 1998 The Mask of Zorro) reprises Antonio Banderas' role as Zorro and Catherine Zeta Jones' role as his wife. Added to their mix is their 10 year old child, Joaquin, played by newcomer Adrian Alonso. Now many years later, the family is settled near San Francisco with Banderas attempting to refrain from his Zorro ways. However, when the entire United States is threatened by a secret organization led by Armand (Rufus Sewell), Zorro is forced back into service.
