But audiences aren't taking to the female hero thing very well. Back to this film. And audiences, this time, are eating it up. It thinks its funny, and it is. Instead of laughing at it, we can laugh with it.
Comic quibbles are one of the film's strong points.
However, this time around the action scene may actually have a purpose in the film's plot. It doesn't, but it thinks it does. Zorro here is played by Anthony Hopkins and returns home after a fight to his wife and daughter. Here, his wife is shot and killed, and his home burned. Murrieta wants revenge and Diego notices the necklace he gave to him at the beginning of the film.
