Review of Zorro

Zorro (2024– )
7/10
A different take on a classic, but fun
27 January 2024
My biggest pet peeve is how the Native Americans are depicted. The Tongva people were not a plains horse culture and didn't live in teepees. And they didn't dress like Apaches - and whatever that was that Nah-Lin was wearing. I'm willing to ignore all that simply because this is a Spanish production filmed at a wild west theme park in the Canary Islands. Plus it's Zorro. Historical accuracy isn't the goal, and suspension of disbelief is required.

I fell in love with Zorro when I was 10 (many years ago). I think I must have watched them all at one point or another. I like this version. It's got some quirky updates, but they don't bother me. It's a fresh look at an old story that works. I love the strong female characters. Again, totally inappropriate behavior, and clothing, for the time period, but I don't care. It's fantasy.
