Legend of Zorro
Whether he is doing comedy or drama or action adventure, Antonio Banderas is always on the mark. He was born to play Zorro, and his choice to play him dramatically with just a layer of comedy is the right choice. Catherine Zeta Jones does well as his wife– ex-wife …
The Bourne Supremacy

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - Episode 1.2: Gnothi Seauton
Well, to my discovery, it seems that this TV show follows an alternate timeline after “Terminator 2: Judgment Day” and has nothing to do with “Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines” (even though “Terminator: Salvation” does). That’s good and bad in my opinion, but that’s a whole other story …
