      @@luckyspurs Genetically there's a link. During the last ice age there was a human outpost in what we now call Basque country, in the north of Spain, and as Europe warmed people started migrating north to England and Ireland. Subsequent invasions of England by Romans and Germans drove these people (the "Celts") to the western periphery, most notably Wales.
      And Anthony Hopkins is Welsh too, so I'd say this movie is thoroughly covered as far as not offending twitter warriors.

    What a fabulous film! They literally don't make them like this anymore. It's a BIG summer action tentpole with apparently not a lick of digital effects anywhere in there! All practical filmmaking with miniatures, physical stunts, and the best swordplay around! Also, you can almost look at The Mask of Zorro as a proto-Batman Beyond. The classic Zorro has aged out of the role, and trains a young, unruly successor to bring justice to an unjust land.

    Not gonna lie, Zorro casting two Welsh people as father and daughter (Hopkins and Zeta-Jones) is kind of genius. Why? Because Welsh people are awesome and Zorro is awesome so it works.

    I love the fact that even though this series is broadcast to the world, these two still manage to include a reference, and footage, of Saint's legend Plugger, and the absolute prick of bloke that is D. Brereton. I love picturing the conversation where you try to explain the reference of such enigmas to Ben and Lawrence haahhaha

    Mask of Zorro is almost a perfect film. I love it. The biggest downside is none of the Mexicans are played by Mexicans (I even IMDB'd the Mexican guard who Anthony Hopkins kills to escape prison and the dude is a white guy from Detroit). British people playing Spanish royalty and Mexicans...it's hilarious.
    I'll tell you who's underrated in this flick and that's Matt Letscher. Captain Love was an awesome villain.

    Absolutely love this film. It's a pure adventure film anchored by an incredible cast, and *still* some of the most mind blowing on-screen stunts. The horse chase where a Zorro (aka some super stunt guy) on the back of a speeding horse does some kind of physics defying backflip to swap himself around to sword fight people chasing him on other horses is just a perfect example of peak 90s adventure movie greatness.
