The Mask of Zorro [Blu-ray] Cusomter reviews:
Average Rating: 4.5 Total Reviews: 412
(Jerry Weinhausen, 2009-10-03) Should I try to review The Mask of Zorro? That's been done competently for years. By now, most everybody has seen it...but not this way in Superbit. Granted, it's not Blu-ray quality but it looks significantly better that standard DVD and miles ahead of the VHS copy we had subsisted on for years. Superbit simply uses all or almost all of the disc space by transferring the movie at higher bit rate but still keeping it within the DVD format. Any extras that would have been found on the original DVD have been moved to a second disk. Playback in 720p, my 57" HDTV's native resolution, on our late model upconverting Panasonic player looks simply sumptuous! I found it to have great detail in every aspect despite our TV's size and lower resolution. Imagine what it would look like on a higher resolution TV. Is it worth it to replace your standard DVD? Only you can answer that question. If you're a BD user, probably not. If you don't see your self moving up to Blu-ray in the near future, you just might.
(Terrence L. Sellers, 2009-09-13) "The Mask of Zorro" is a rousing,sometimes poignant actioner.full of great performances and, as the title I wrote says,"They don't make 'em like that anymore". Antonio Banderas and Anthony Hopkins,a young ruffian who aspires to heroism and his somewhat reluctant mentor respectively,have wonderful chemistry but the delight and surprise of the is the lovely Catherina Zeta Jones as the spunky,beautiful heroine who can hold her own in a swordfight(and look pretty dandy doing it!) The film is texture and the fight scenes are well choreographed as are the "smaller" moments in the film that give it it's heart. Give this one a look, especially if,like me, you love a good old fashioned adventure film!
(Dorothy E. Garnett, 2009-09-09) FUN,is the only word I can think of. I enjoyed this story when I was a kid and even more now that I am an adult. Zorro is one of my favorites and to see him historically is a treat. Great actors, beautiful (authentic looking) scenery and decent story line.
(Bill M. Morgan, 2009-08-27) THIS IS THE WAY MOVIES SHOULD BE MADE , GOOD ACTOR {ACRRESSES] and a clean story!!
(Craig Connell, 2009-03-18) This movie had just a couple of things I would have changed but the overwhelming minutes of this 137-minute movie were well done: a nice old- fashioned adventure story. Yes, it's hokey in spots, there is a needless irreverent scene in the confessional and the final action scene goes on too long, but all of that is almost standard fare in today's films. Anyway, the "good" in this film far outweighs the "bad." Some of the "good" is beautiful cinematography featuring bold colors; good action scenes; very little profanity; interesting and somewhat likable lead characters (played by Anthony Hopkins, Antonio Bandaras and Catherine Zeta-Jones), a fun story and very good 5.1 surround sound. Zeta-Jones was a brand new "face" when this movie came out and she's never looked better. Hopkins, as usual, is the best character as the older "Zorro" who teaches the young one (Bandaras). Some of the action scenes are almost cartoon-like in credibility (Bandaras doing flips while riding two horses at once!) but they are fun. The story is a familiar one that seems to always satisfy people: revenge
