Washington Post (Stephen Hunter)
What a waste of talent, time and money. And guess what else? Not only is The Legend of Zorro stupid and boring but -- ta-da! -- it's also really ...read the complete Legend of Zorro movie review at Washington Post (Stephen Hunter)
Chicago Reader (J.R. Jones)
I missed the first half hour of this Zorro adventure, and it's a tribute to the idiot-proof screenplay that I had no trouble following the rest. ...read the complete Legend of Zorro movie review at Chicago Reader (J.R. Jones)
Arizona Daily Star (Phil Villarreal)

San Diego Union-Tribune (David Elliott)
This colorful corn might pop if only Campbell didn't have a directing technique wired with nitro. ...read the complete Legend of Zorro movie review at San Diego Union-Tribune (David Elliott)

Yet, it's watchable -- not remotely enjoyable, but watchable. ...read the complete Legend of Zorro movie review at San Francisco Chronicle (Mick LaSalle)
Austin Chronicle (Marc Savlov)
Here’s a neat party trick I came up with the other evening: Take The Legend of Zorro leads Banderas, Zeta-Jones, and Alonso and replace them with Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, and Freddie Boath; insert the name "Im-Ho-Tep" whenever anyone in The Legend ...read the complete Legend of Zorro movie review at Austin Chronicle (Marc Savlov)
