Oh it's fun. An old-fashioned, good-hearted
action film with a sense of humor.
An aging zero (Hopkins) seeks an apprentice
(Banderas) to take over the mask. Excellent makeup on
Hopkins, by the way; he spans at least twenty years.
The plot thickens when Banderas falls for Hopkin's
daughter (Zeta-Jones).
Feels longer than need be, sporting a climax
bulked over artificially with action, but I still
enjoyed the heck out of it.
Good performances by all with a hint of tongue and
cheek from the director.
My viewing was by way of video rental, bet it
looked great on the big screen!
