After twenty years, the legendary Zorro (Hopkins) escapes from prison to avenge the murder of his wife and kidnapping of his daughter Elena (Zeta-Jones) at the hand of his enemy, Don Raphael Montero, but first he must transform a cocky young thief (Banderas) into the fearless hero and champion of the people he once was. With two Zorros on the scene, it's twice the adventure and twice the fun.
Review by Publisher Summary 2The elder Zorro comes out of retirement to train a new Zorro to fight the enemy Montero.
Review by Publisher Summary 3The Mask Of Zorro is a sweeping romantic adventure of love and honor, of tragedy and triumph set against Mexico's fight for indepedence from the iron fist of Spain. It is also a rousing, often hilarious swashbuckling fable about how a roguish outlaw whose only knowledge of a sword is that "the pointy end goes into the other man" is transformed into an elegant hero.
