“Once Upon a Time in Mexico” Movie Review
“Once Upon a Time in Mexico” Plot Summary
Hitman “El Mariachi” becomes involved in international espionage involving a psychotic CIA agent and a corrupt Mexican general.
Enjoyable
Once Upon a Time is overall a pretty enjoyable movie. Despite its bizarre randomness, action fans will love the fighting scenes and gun play. Not to mention the characters who were actually somewhat interesting and not stolen, which has got to be a first when it comes to the action genre. I can honestly say that I enjoyed all of the characters, even that stupid Taco Bell type dog that the American carried around and put a wiretap on. I really don’t have too many complaints about the movie, and thought it was interesting throughout
El was a crazy, crazy man. If cornered by a massive army, he would just whip out his guitar and fire off grenades and laser beams taking everyone out, saving his guitar until the end. He would then throw it at General Marquez, causing a 1 Megaton nuclear warhead to go off right behind him as he makes his escape into a hand-made shelter from his Mexican buddies.7.5 / 10

“The Legend of Zorro” Movie Review
“Zorro” Plot Summary
Despite trying to keep his swashbuckling to a minimum, a threat to California’s pending statehood causes the adventure-loving Alejandro de la Vega (Banderas) — and his wife, Elena (Zeta-Jones) — to take action. add synopsis
Worth the 7-year wait
Someone needs to defend ‘the legend of Zorro’. I am reading all kinds of reviews which criticize this movie for very minor details, when, in fact, this movie is really just trying to have fun
First – ‘Legend of Zorro’ is nothing at all like the ‘Spy Kids’ junk, which critics claim to see remarkable similarities. Yes, we know Antonio Banderas was in both films, and in both films his kids come to save the day…but the similarities stop there. The young actor they found to play Joaquin isn’t there to be scenery, but is involved in the story like any other character, and even better – he’s not painful to watch act (and he’s got some great dialogue, too).
Second – I enjoyed the fact that the storyline did not become a predictable, routine sequel. If we waited seven years to just watch Zorro fight another bad guy while mom & son stayed home…I would be angry. But the story used Elena and Joaquin in very creative ways. The only way its predictable is that Zorro saves the day – but just as to how he gets there, I never saw it coming
Third – I will admit, this is nowhere near the same level-of-quality that we saw in ‘Mask of Zorro’. They set the bar far too high (and they let two other jerks BESIDES Ted Elliot & Terry Rossario write the movie). The comic relief was at times excessive, there were a few unnecessary Zorro backflips, leaps, and jumps in the fight scenes…but how can you absolutely dismiss a sequel for not being perfect? ‘The Legend of Zorro’ met my expectations for a sequel, though did not surpass them. I still consider ‘the Mask of Zorro’ to be THE BEST action/adventure film of the last 20 years. But to say ‘Legend’ was outright horrible is just not fair. This is meant to be fun escapism, set in a beautiful 1850’s California, starring actors who clearly are having a fun time, filled with sword fights, evil villains, great chases, and a clever story
Its only unforgivable sin was not finding one ‘in’ – any ‘in’ – that allowed Anthony Hopkins a cameo (like a flashback or a dream or something).
