n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Zzzzzzzzzzz Eh hmm sorry didnt notice you was still snoozing after watching this movie. It is a very dull movie because you dont feel motivated for any of the characters. There all doing stuff but you dont care why. Mainly because theres far to little action in it. The sets and costumes are really the only good things about the film. And RC and CB are both ok. Anyway avoid the film it sucks.

Only recently saw this. This movie is as if it was directed by 2 persons. It starts OK , has a different view as to previous outcomes and wants to be a Braveheart 2 . However despite the good acting ( with exception of Crowe who does not fit here ) the movie falls flat as from the scene where Crowe dances with Blanchet. It becomes cheesy, mellow and in short Hollywood style. Now maybe , just maybe this is not at fault of Scott but rather the producers, but still , the last half destroys the movie completely. I found Oscar Isaac's performance very good and of course Von Sydow and Hurt. The battle scene at the end at the beach made it even worse . No-one can figure out who it fighting who ( something Kurosawa fortunate can due to clans who use different colors ). And the shot where Crow shoots his last arrow is good for the waste bag. One more thing : why do producers think that we need music all over the place ? Credit to the Coens who did an entire movie without any music.

God almighty! This Robin Hood is catastrophic, period. On top of that, the lack of humbleness reaches the unthinkable. I've heard Russell Crowe , the new Robin Hood, referring to Errol Flynn's version as crap. Crap? Can you imagine! Errol Flynn made that movie "The Adventures Of Robin Hood" in 1939 and people still watch it today, 77 years later, with utter delight. Russell Crowe's "Robin Hood" was made only 7 years ago and it's already forgotten. I was appalled by his comment and realized that Oscar winner or not, wisdom or knowledge is not part of the equation. I've heard Russell Crowe in a different interview saying he never trained as an actor. He claims he doesn't know anything about Stanislavski and more importantly, he doesn't care to know. What a message to send to the new generations.

Throughout the years (or in this case centuries), the story of "Robin Hood" has been told in many different variations. There's the swashbuckler (Errol Flynn), the comedian ("Men in Tights"), and the cartoonish (Disney), to name just a few. This Ridley Scott effort takes a sort of "Dark Knight" approach to the green-clad archer, perusing the roots of the character and explaining how the legend began.For a basic plot summary, this film centers on Robin Longstride (Russell Crowe), who struggles to exist in King John's rule of England after returning from the Crusades. After completing one final mission after the wars to the Loxley house, Robin meets Marion Loxley (Cate Blanchett), a sort of kindred spirit in the fight against the oppressive government.This film works on a number of different levels...-It is great action/adventure. The war scenes are reminiscent of "Lord of The Rings", and just as thrilling (not overdone or cheesy).-The grittiness. This isn't a swashbuckling Robin, but rather a good-hearted man just trying to do what is right. Also, this is a great imagining of 13th century England, making you feel as if what you are seeing could have actually transpired.-The birth of the legend. The "cannon" points (Marion, Band of Merry Men, archery, etc.) are subtle and serve to enhance the overall plot, not beat you over the head like "look what we did!".Overall, then, this is a very underrated film, especially if you are at all a fan of the Robin Hood character. The movie itself may not be as gripping as "Dark Knight", but it is well-made in a very similar style.
