Spanish aristocrat Ramon arrives in Mexico to find his father and learns that he died under mysterious circumstances, and his property was taken over by local rulers. With the help of his cunning servant, sword and beautiful senorita, he arranges a real revolution on a local scale.
The film pays for a popular story about Zorro. But to Zorro the picture is almost irrelevant, the hero walks in a mask for only a couple of minutes. And the famous Z sign appears on one of the walls of the city only in one scene.
The main role is played by Sean Flynn, the son of the legendary Errol Flynn, a Hollywood superstar of the 30-50s, who received the most fame in films with a cloak and swords. Although Zorro himself never played. In principle, he looks good in scenes with a sword in his hand, but the charm of his father he misses very much. Actually Sean and starred in 9 mediocre European films, which soon after the release on the screens, were safely forgotten.
In general, a typical film of a cloak and swords of a medium hand: cute and unpretentious, without the participation of famous actors (except Sean Flynn) and with a set of plot cliches. There are much brighter paintings in this genre, and this one is kind of gray and not memorable.
