The Sign of Zorro

'The Sign of Zorro' is good fun.

I've always heard of Zorro, with his famous mark et al., though have never seen anything directly about him. This makes for a strong first impression. It is a compilation of a number of the television show episodes, but it's edited together nicely to the point I didn't even notice.

Guy Williams is great as Zorro, bringing the required amount of charisma and smartness to the role. Henry Calvin is also impressive, as comedic character Sgt. Garcia - he gives the laughs. Britt Lomond also gives a notable performance, as Monastario. It's all well acted in general.

I have nothing negative to note, everything makes for entertaining viewing.

I was a little disappointed. This film is a combined and edited version of the first part of season one of "The Adventures of Zorro". Thing is, I have just completed watching all of the episodes made available on Disney+. So this feels like a rerun. OK, for what it is. But the chances are, if you can watch this, do you have access to Disney+. If you have access to Disney+, you have access to the original series.

Sergeant Garcia may have been a model for Sergeant Schultz, of "Hogan's Heroes", they are very similar character types.

I will say, just to fill up the apparently required six hundred characters, that "The Adventures of Zorro" is one of my more vivid childhood TV memories. One of the shows I grew up with. 🤔😉😊

This show has a lot of great sword fights. I think it's lacking in the personable department though. Not sure why I should care about the lead.

Filming location: Iverson Movie Ranch in what is now Chatsworth, California.

Very convenient, it's not my favorite hero by far, but I liked the movie, the plot entertains, I loved to see Zorro trolling the villain, a light hint of humor, heroism, fencing, nostalgia, romantic...

Good film.This movie is spectacular, but The Mark of Zorro with Tyrone Power is better.Guy Williams is fantastic in the role of Don Diego Vega.This is one of the best action\adventure movies that I ever saw!
