Six years after the sword-swishing hero transferred from TV to the big screen he returns, now, of course, Alejandro de la Cega (Banderas) is married to Elena (Zeta Jones) with family responsibilities.

But California is about to gain Statehood and there is still some buckleswashing to do.

It's the usual thrilling action, the usual sly humour and it's all carried off in a crowd-pleasing style by an attractive - sexy - cast.

Great fun.
