THE MASK OF ZORRO (1998) | FIRST TIME WATCHING | MOVIE REACTION

_Princess Bride, Pirates of the Caribbean,_ and Mask of Zorro all had the same swordmaster choreographing the fights and training the performers. The legendary Bob Anderson.

"Gosh! She's stunning!!" That's exactly what audiences said in 1998. CZJ's career took off like a rocket after this. She had an Oscar within five years. One of the most beautiful women of all time.

Fun Fact: At the end, when Zorro confronts Captain Love, he pulls out his sword and the sun glints off the blade running the full length. This was not CGI and was suggested by Antonio Banderas. He had to tilt the sword to catch the sun without breaking eye contact with Matt Letscher. It only took three takes. Also, legendary sword trainer Bob Anderson, who trained Errol Flynn, remarked that Antonio Banderas was the most gifted swordsman with whom he had worked since Errol Flynn. Antonio Banderas had also trained with the Spanish Olympic team for four months and was extremely adamant about performing many of his own stunts for authenticity.

"I'm loving these adventures lately" You would also love the 90s Three Musketeers. Kiefer Sutherland, Charlie Sheen, and Chris O'Donnell. With bonus Tim Curry and Michael Wincott (the villain from The Crow)

This movie is a classic that aged like fine wine. Zorro is the original batman.

Hopkins, Banderas and Zeta-Jones in their absolute primes.

this was always a really fun movie; Banderas, Hopkins, and Zeta-Jones played their roles to perfection

CZJ’s beauty is simply incomprehensible. “he was vigorous. very vigorous father” always cracks me up 😂

Yep, Antonio Banderas plays Zorro in this film and does the voice of Puss 'n' Boots! And definitely is Zorro as a cat though the character is from a different fable.

Zorro was the movie that Bruce Wayne was watching with his parents when they were killed on the way home. So if you do show this to your kids, don't go in any dark alleys afterwards.
