Synopsis

George Hamilton stars in a dueling dual role as twin sons of the legendary Zorro. Soon after the dashing Don Diego Vega inherits his father's famous sword and costume, a broken ankle prevents the masked avenger from fulfilling his heroic duties. When his flamboyantly fashion-conscious brother assumes the secret identity to continue an ongoing fight for justice, the results are nothing short of hilarious!

GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Acensbart Excellent but underrated film
Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Blueghost The dashing, suave, debonair Latino who is a sword master and champion equestrian of the downtrodden peasantry, returns to the silver screen in this send-up of our favorite Spanish speaking swashbuckler, or, in this case, swish-buckler. George Hamilton leads a list of A-List talent in a comedy that tells the tale of two Zorros, one who is the traditional ladies man, the other who is a homosexual. The zingers and sight gags are timed perfectly in that Hollywood old-school style; no super-fast gags with obscure well- educated references. It's just plain good old fashioned humor.But as great as George Hamilton, the graceful Lauren Hutton and brilliant Brenda Vicarro are, it's Ron Leibman as the fiery tempered alcalde who steals the show with his portrayal of a local military leader gone mad with obsession and power.Truly a great film. Funny from start to finish. It's one not to miss.Check it out and enjoy!
billpappas-1 One of my favorite movies of all time. I never cared for George Hamilton who played boring playboys until this movie where he had fun with the role. When he showed up at the masked ball as Margareta Wigglesworth, I almost fell on the floor laughing.Later, the Alcalda goes to the bar and orders a drink for Margareta. The bartender replies '4 margaritas'.My favorite line was at the end when the two brothers were on horseback saying their goodbyes and Bunny told his brother that Lauren Hutton was in love with him and 'would do anything for the man she loved' His brother said 'She said that?' Bunny replies 'Said it, she almost sang it'.
mcgoldfinger i saw this when i was 11 yrs old and it was one of the first videos i had ever watched.it has remained one of the funniest comedies i have ever seen, every scene is funny on so many levels. George Hamilton is most definitely a genius in it, Brenda Vaccaro and Rob Leibman are the funniest comedy actors i have ever seen. if you get the opportunity, please watch it, for all the family and worth a Saturday or Sunday afternoon watch. Guaranteed to cheer you up if your feeling low. The fact that it is so over the top makes it all the more enjoyable. I cannot wait for the day that i can show this to my kids and have them laugh as hard as i did when i was there age.
marsflicks This movie is a completely funny spoof of the Zorro legend - complete with sword fights, injustice, and cross dressing. There are many small innuendos, lines, and moments that the first time viewer may miss, so be sure to watch it again - also look for the reactions of the lesser characters. George Hamilton shows his silly side and his ability for self-mockery - which is totally worth watching! The supporting cast are all great veteran character actors - people you couldn't name, but whose face you recognize. Paco, who plays George's mute servant, is priceless. It's definitely included in my "80's Comedies Worth Owning" list.
