I just watched a movie with Antonio Banderas and Anthony Hopkins. In my opinion, it is one of Banderas' best films. It is an adventure film unlike any other. Set during the early Spanish colonization of California, it shows powerful men who take advantage of the poor to mine for gold to purchase land and solidify their own power. Banderas' is a young man who is trained as the next Zorro, a prolific swordsman who helps the people of the community. Now, the new Zorro must fight to save the poor people being forced to mine gold where the overseers are planning to kill them all to hids the fact they have fabricated Spanish currency at the facility to buy land. I give this film a firm 7.8/10. This film is a must see. Just because it's from 1998, doesn't mean it isn't still great! You can watch this movie for free with ads on Tubi.
