The Legend of Zorro Reviews |
It's all rather harmless, which is nothing to carp about, but, at the same time, that's also the problem. The movie feels like a small, indistinct film trapped in a big film's clothes. It tries just hard enough to get by when it should be working more ambitiously to earn that mark of the Z. [read review] 6/10
While there's no crime in trying to aim for a hit, the Zorro character deserves much better than what "Legend" has to offer. In what should've been Antonio Banderas's finest hour as the Mexican superhero, he is instead swallowed up by a second film that doesn't know what to do with him. [read review] 
--Brian Orndorf (eFilmCritic.com)
It's easy to overlook a film like this in a crowded marketplace, and I suspect that's what most viewers will do. Except, of course, for that cache of hardcore Zorro fans who have been waiting eagerly since 1998. Their day, at last, has come. [read review] B-
--Eric D. Snider (EricDSnider.com)
A chip off the old block, the son of Zorro may be ready for his sequel. But this franchise looks exhausted except for some spectacular swordplay and the thrilling emergence of the alphabet's last letter in clothing ripped to shreds. [read review] 
Even though it’s over two hours, the only times I got restless were when Zorro got in his ridiculous fights against overwhelming odds. Sink those and it’s a much better movie. Even with them it’s a lot of fun. [read review] 8/10
Not as good as the first film and hampered by some very poor comedy, but this is still a watchable adventure with likeable characters and a couple of decent action scenes. [read review]
--Matthew Turner (ViewLondon)
Zorro has a distinguished history, dating back to 1919. It's unfortunate that the latest installment of his saga makes him look like a relic who's ready for retirement. [read review]
--James Berardinelli (ReelViews)
Zorro doesn’t get a chance to sword-swipe his initial into opponents’ clothes very often this time around, but when he does, it should be an “M” for “Mediocre.” [read review] C
Legend of Zorro is the sort of movie in which a stunt man can fall through all manner of wooden scaffolding but leap immediately back into the fray. [read review] C+
The Legend of Zorro commits a lot of movie sins, but one is mortal: It turns the magnificent Elena into a nag. [read review] 
--Roger Ebert (Chicago Sun-Times)
