12:48 Diego was educated in Barcelona, Spain in fencing, literature, military strategies, history, philosophy, science, and acrobatics. Basically all the skills required of a true Caballero. When his father called him back to help and opposing the new military regime, Diego decided to hide all of these skills and use them only as Zorro.
Sounds about right
I can't think of a single thing I dislike about this movie. Every scene had a moment that either gave me chills or made burst out laughing (sometimes both at the same time). This will always be a beloved classic for me.
Glad to hear you like this movie, I think it was very good too!
And here we have the source material for Puss in Boots' mannerisms. Between Zorro and Puss, these are two of my favorite Antonio Banderas movie characters.
I haven’t seen that one. Would like to someday!
He's in the Shrek movies, as well as having his own spinoff
"They have guns, though! You just gotta pointy stick!" 😆🤣🤣 Perfect!
😂
@@Sessis Back during that time period muskets took very long to reload and had a tendency to either misfire alot, didn't fire at all or they would end up backfiring and injuring/killing the one using it. Hence the bayonet on the rifle allowing soldiers to engage in melee combat.
Except within a 20 foot span... a pointy stick is more deadly. Especially with the guns they used in that time. 🙄
Say what you will about the evilness of Captain Love, that "your brother would have shot himself by now" line was the sickest of burns.
So glad that you enjoyed the score that was created for this film. The composer is James Horner and he is, or sadly rather was one of the greatest film composers ever. He won two Oscars for his score to the film Titanic and was nominated for many more. He tragically died in his own small plane some years back. I hope you get chance to hear more of his music as you continue your film watching journey. His scores for Braveheart, Willow, and Apollo 13 are simply outstanding.
Oh wow I didn’t know that. Thanks for taking the time to share.
@@Sessis James Horner is also known for the soundtracks for Star Trek II (considered by many to be the all time best Star Trek film) and Star Trek III (pay particular attention to the "Stealing the Enterprise" scene - the music in that sequence SELLS that scene as much as the special effects and actors!).
There's also the absolutely fun and joyous music he did for the movie The Rocketeer. The opening music to that film effortlessly captures the romanticism and wonder of flight.
In fact, I would argue that The Rocketeer and Apollo 13 could be musical bookends. One from the early age of flight - and the other from the greatest age of space exploration we have yet been able to achieve. Add in Star Trek for what we HOPE is our future and you've got an incredibly optimistic and inspiring series of soundtrack suites!!!
Americans have Batman, the Spanish-Mexicans have Zorro
EDIT: 29:50 I mean, they ARE in a barn
If you enjoyed the swordplay in this movie then you would like "The Princess Bride". The fencing in that one is amazing!
Inconceivable!
Princess Bride may be the most quotable movie ever made :) @@wtbeecher
The Rurouni Kenshin live action films have the best sword fights I've ever seen.
I endorse this idea!
Also Fun fact Zorro is the inspiration for Batman being created like the batcave, Mansion mask etc
Really? That’s cool, I didn’t know that
Thank you Sessis for reacting The Mask of Zorro starring Antonio Banderas, Anthony Hopkins and Catherine Zeta-Jones. The music video of the film is the song "I Want to Spend my Lifetime Loving You" performed by Marc Anthony and Tina Arena. Next time reacts the sequel The Legend of Zorro.
I loved your reaction just as much as the movie itself ❤
I think it's a real hidden gem that doesn't get the love it deserves
This movie always gives me Indiana Jones vibes. Great movie and excellent reaction Sessis. 🙂
Thank you for this reaction! Antonio Banderas was amazing! I was in a musical production when I was playing Pancho Villa and I watched these films to study their dialect. Catherine Zeta-Jones was both lovely and fierce! I used to wish they would have made a video game where you play as various characters in a sword duel. I really would love to see your reaction to the sequel The Legend of Zorro! If you’d like more adventurous films I highly recommend Disney’s The Lone Ranger, Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, Cutthroat Island, The Goonies, Finding O’hana, and Bandidas.
⚔️🔥🖤❤️🔥
Diego De La Vega (first Zorro) was trained in Madrid/Spain.
It's a lot older but "The Sea Hawk" [1940] is the epitome of a swashbuckling film
My favorite Zorro movie is simply called Zorro with Alain Delon. Best music and duel scenes.
Also, the movie takes place on Young California. Rafael the fictional governor, promises their citizens the independence from New Spain (now México, how was called by Zorro at the beginning ❤️) he plans to create the former Republic of California, an actual attempt of independence after Mexican independence that ended up in the union with the USA and one of the last steps for México to lose 51% of his territory 💔 (first was loosing Texas)
Been so long since I saw this movie, fun trip back into the past, with this delightful reaction.
21:15 It works as a distraction if nothing else. And dancing with the girl is what Zorro would have done.
You should watch the 1940 Mark of Zorro, starring Tyrone Power. It's black and white, but an absolute classic.
Thanks for the suggestion. Idk if I’ve ever watch any movies from that long ago 🤔 could be fun!
You seem to view the term Capitalism as a curse word. The reality is that the peasants who were fighting the aristocrats were the capitalists who wanted private property, personally earned wealth rather than forced labor and freedom to trade with merchants beyond the Spanish ones. Their independence was why they were successful in a very harsh environment (frontier California) full of armed enemies. Other than that a very good reaction to a very fun movie. The sequel is even more instructive.
Batman yes, has so much to be with Zorro, in the first cómics of batman he was really based on the zorro character. That's such a thing that, I think in a Tim Burton Batman movie, when Bruce's parents are killed, they're getting out from a cinema that's playing Zorro's movie. All a tribute.
But a big difference, besides Zorro is a rich owner of an "hacienda" he doesnt "fight criminals" but defends the poor from an abusive government and gives them power. Batman is a rich who fights criminals but not much for white collar criminals 🤣🤣 pont for zorro. I love this movie, was an icon when I was a kid.
28:00 I think Antonio Banderas had done movies that required fencing before this. but any movie with sword have an armsmaster as part of the crew. Also stage fencing is not the same as real fencing.
I remember watching this as a child 🙂 it was my favorite and the ending always made me cry but I'm happy Elena got to see her father before he passed away
Thanks for the video Sessis. :)
☺️☺️☺️
TheMask of Zorro is a really good movie with star actor Antonio Banderas as Zorro. P.S. you are dressed very nice today for another great movie reaction and glad your enjoying the film. You should watch as a CZcams reaction or on your own the black-and-white comedy film Abbott and Costello meet Frankenstein this is a funny comedy film starring two famous comedians named Abbott and Lou Costello, I highly recommend it and you’ll laugh at this movie!!!!😂
The Mask of Zorro is really good movie I love adventure movies is so amazing I love the music 🙂
A beautiful reaction. These are my favorite types of movies. For more swordplay movies, take a look at The Princess Bride and Pirates of the Caribbean.
22:45 Very good the mythical city of gold in the new world
another great reaction as usual
Thank you Cody!
30:00 I don't know... she drew a blade on him, he defended himself and isntead of injuring her he only humiliated her. As for her not being as good as him Don Rafael would never have allowed his daughter to learn more than the basic for selfe defence purposes. Truth be told I'm suprised he allowed her to fence at all.
Diego and Alejandro’s Zorro Outfits are actually VERY different when you look closely. Diego’s reflects his Spanish Heritage (Metal Clasp, European style Hat, Gloves that Flare out, and Heeled Boots) while Alejandro’s reflects his Mexican Nationality (Open Shirt, Tribal Design on the Hat, Thinner Gloves and Cowboy Stirrups on the Boots).
Suuuuuper fun movie!
I liked it!
The 2nd pt. is The Legend of Zorro
I have a reaction to the second movie too. I think that one was pretty good too
Glad u enjoyed it. 😊 its a fun movie tobwatch minus the dress slashing scene
Try "Desperado," also starring Antonio Banderas.
Thanks for the recommendation
@@Sessis You might also like "Entrapment," with Catherine Zeta Jones, Sean Connery, and Ving Rhames.
Great reaction and edit 🙂
Thank you very much!
Hi Sessis. Glad you watched this movie. It's such a good action comedy from the 90's. Looking forward to your next movie reaction. You are adorable. Take care
Thank you Max, you’re very kind!
More action adventure. Though it also has lots of comedy, drama, romance, etc...
I actually got the mask of zorro DVD 📀 movie and it was awesome and the legend of zorro too❤
Great vid Sess! time to boost the algorithm : P
Thank you Farzan! I appreciate you!
Diego Dela Vega was trained in Spain
Great reaction! I saw this in the theater back in 1998. Great movie. But I would be remiss if I didn't recommend watching what many consider to be the definitive Zorro movie "The Mark of Zorro" (1940) starring Tyrone Power. Scenes and elements from this 1940 movie are borrowed and included in this modern version of the Zorro tale. It is available for rent on CZcams but it has also been uploaded here too.
Great reaction just subbed!
Thank you very much ☺️
The overdone fight scenes were a nod to the 60's TV show.
There was TV shows in the 60s? I didn’t know that!
The series is on Disney+
@@foj3000 So it is. Thank you.
Tarzan The Fearless might be a crazy one to watch.
I had so much trouble watching this movie - this time and the first time I saw it 14 years ago. The intense crush I have on Catherine Zeta Jones just drives me crazy. My favorite with her in it was "Entrapment", which also had Sean Connery as the male lead. I've been to the Petronas Twin Tower in Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, where the key parts of that movie took place. That place is worth visiting.
watching save ryan solder or forrest gump. you will get excited.
Thank you for the recommendation
36:30 Stema engine, likely used to pump water out of the bottom of the mime.
As always great reaction Sess! If you enjoyed Antonio Banderas' performance I hope you'll consider the movie The 13th Warrior. I don't want to give anything away about the film. So I'll just say that It's one of my favorites of all time and I think you'd really enjoy it as well!
Thank you Nathan! I haven’t heard of that movie
@@Sessis13th warrior is amazing, I'm sure that you don't regret...
Congratulations for your channel and saluts from Brazil...
Im guessing either dutch or swedish because of the "no's"?
Great reaction. Loved this movie as a kid.
Let's GOOOOOOOO!!! FIRST!!!! Neener! ::sticks tongue out at Nala:: Yea, so this is like my Bi awakening Sess. Catherine Zeta Jones and Antonio Banderas. ::faints:: I am really glad you enjoyed it Sess. See, as a kid and someone my age, we grew up on the old Zorro that was a black and white show from the 50's. So I was leery of this coming out. But, it is LEGIT a good movie. NOW, the sequel, is JUST if not BETTER, highly advise you adding it to your list. (if you haven't already) Fantastic job as usual. Can't wait for the next one!!
I’d definitely like to see the sequel as well! Omg Catherine is amazingly beautiful 😍
Everybody has their own preferences, but the sequel is generally not held in high regard.
@@jp3813 Never really cared about other people's opinions really. Thank goodness! Some of my favorite movies are Horrible 🤣
16:30 😂😂Wtf lol
Did you know that Antonio banderas has also made puss in boots in shrek movies, plus reaction is as best as usual!
I you like this have you watched the three musketeers? I was thinking the 1993 one but any of them?
Please reacts the sequel "The legend of Zorro". Its the same perfect!!!!!!
Hope you enjoyed the reaction to the sequel too!
...the song at the end of the movie is really good....surprised ya didn't listen to it..
A great romance.
They were very cute together at the end ☺️
Hello Sessis
Hey 👋
The Spanish government was definitely not capitalism. You may want to research those terms
There is another movie after this
🎉🎉🎉🎉
200 pesos is like 11 us dollars
out of curiosity Sessis but are you from sweden 🤔🤔🤔🙂😉?
cause i heard you say a swedish word hehe🙂😉
Yes I’m indeed from Sweden 😃
@@Sessis hehe nice where from in sweden🤔🤔🤔🙂?
Its'a great movie but it missess some cultural clues, Catholics generally don't take their own lives for an example.
I do enjoy watching your reactions, and I do not want to make this political, but you seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of Capitalism. Don Montero is not a capitalist, what he is doing has nothing to do with capitalism, capitalism is simply a market driven economic system centered on the idea of the respect of property rights and private market driven means of production, capitalism is about trade and entrepreneurship. Don Montero was stealing and slaving, not trading and producing, therefore he was not a capitalist. In fact I see Zoro as the capitalist, because he privately took it upon himself to provide security and rescue to those poor people, that is capitalism.
I do encourage you to do a bit more research into the economics and ideas of capitalism and understand it better.
Other than your nasty bits about Capitalism, excellent reaction.
Where's shawshank redeption
It’s in the future, yet to materialize
I don't think there's anything wrong with any of the scenes in this movie or the "age" they come from! You're a bit too sensitive, don't let all this woke crap rule your life, men and women used to be able to get along just fine together and now you can't even walk past each other without someone getting offended!!! We all know women got the shit end of the stick for all of history, but now y'all are taking your retribution too far and ridiculing scenes in movies that are harmless!!!!!!! This shit is out of hand, just be cool towards one another and don't treat each other like shit, but don't nit pick stupid shit, it's ridiculous!!!!!!! Just treat each other with respect and have a laugh!!!!!!! Anyway I like your channel and I love watching you see these fims for the first time!!!
@@iankogneeto4882 Thank you, I appreciate it!!! 👍💯😎
Hello beautiful girl, what do you think about watching Star Wars, which is also sword fighting? Greetings from Peru !!!
Hello I’m a woman not a girl but thanks for the compliment. I’ve already seen Star Wars as a kid
You're getting into some interesting movies?
Interesting movies for whom?
One of my all-time favorite movies! You're right, if it were made today, it would be a lot different: the casting, the "questionable" scenes. I'm happy we got what we did though because it's a lot of fun!
I know that you’re also a gamer and have you played the game kingdom hearts if not it’s a game I highly recommend and that there are several games of kingdom hearts!!!
You keep calling them capitalists, yet the more appropriate term would be aristocracy.
It's around the opposite end of Capitalism.
Oh for sure they are aristocrats but they are the ones in charge or at the helm of our capitalistic society. Would we have aristocrats without capitalism?
@@Sessis Uhm... no? They were appointed governors of territories within California by the royal Spanish court to act as their voice. They got ousted by Mexico when it declared it's independence of Spain, and now they want to buy California to return to ruling it but free of Spain. That's an Aristocracy, and capitalism has nothing to do with that.
And would aristocrats exist without capitalism? Yes, aristocracies have existed long before capitalism even came to be. That's born nobility.
Capitalism lifted the world out of living in the mud.
Have you fact checked that?
Capitalism was the driving force of the American Industrial Revolution. Europe took notice and copied, allowing them to live above the standards of a medievall Society. Then the third world took notice, those who were able copied them. Now the only third world countries that are left are those who were unwilling or unable to be capitalistic. Truthfully I feel sorry for them.
That’s a long reply to answer no. I’m guessing you’re American? Sorry your education system has failed to teach you how to fact check and that you’ve fallen for propaganda.
Oh, the irony.
You realize you live such a comfortable existence because of capitalism, right?
You yourself are a capitalist.
You make money from producing digital content, mostly from men.
Did I ever claim I don’t participate in capitalism? 💀 You can criticize and dislike a system, especially one that you don’t have much of a choice not participating in. Idk why you so emotional about it. Hope you get better soon, seem disruptive.
@Sessis - Actually, I merely stated facts.
And you are certainly able to live a life without taking part in market economy, but you won't, because it's difficult.
And we have capitalism to thank for such a beautiful thing.
I don’t know I tend to like capitalism. I’ll take it over starving under communism.
Why is the only alternative always communism 😅 you know that isn’t the only other way to do things right. Also please tell me when capitalism removed starvation from the world. I most have missed that world breaking news
Bruh both are sh*t
Well communism is pitched as a system that would bring about a utopia. While capitalism isnt perfect no system is. Its not possible to get rid of all hunger and starvation under any system. Capitalism has brought about innovation and lifted millions of people out of absolute poverty over the years
Do you know european using hybrid economy?
They use capitalism + socialism.
The real reason why West economist afraid of islam because we have islamic economy. Unlike other religion, islam cover everything from social, economy, politics, religion. West already turned into atheist and afraid what islam capable do so they i fouence our leader to be westernized and West succeed to control with usury based economy
@@Sessisit's not world breaking news because it's happened all of human history.
But if you want a specific example, Live Aid in 1985 didn't just happen for free.
American capitalism lifted the world from living in the mud.
Average reading comprehension of Americans is that of a six grader and I guess that might not be an exaggeration after all
an ignorant portion of "Americans" truly swallowed the myth of American exceptionalism...
@@Sessis....while you're using an American platform to watch an American movie to make money
@Sessis that is because liberal education policies have dumbed down the standards so that those who don't score as well so they don't have to feel bad. Standards were also dumb down for the purpose of raising the percentage of passing students to secure school districts get their federal and state monetary contributions and now Johnny can't read
@@eq1373 what's your point
Your mouth looks tiny but you talk non-stop a mile a minute throughout.
You seem unhealthy, good luck with that. 💀
