“The Mark of Zorro […] is one of the finest costume adventure stories ever filmed, one that’s laced with a healthy dollop of romance and more than a smidgen of comedy. […] Tyrone Power, who was clearly born to play the role, gets it all right – the charisma, the courage, the foppishness, the desire – it’s all there in all the right proportions. […] Rathbone is in absolutely superlative form, all elegance and ice, the kind of villain that audiences truly love to hate.” Craig Butler: The Mark of Zorro bei AllMovie (englisch)
