Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Eric Stevenson I thought that this was the longest Robin Hood movie ever made. I then heard there's an extended version of 2010's "Robin Hood" that's over 150 minutes. Whatever, it's the longest version I've seen. We really do see an all star cast here with Kevin Costner, Morgan Freeman, and Alan Rickman. I keep seeing Alan Rickman in more things. It's hard to believe I never heard of him before Harry Potter.We get a lot of great action scenes but the characterizations are good. I will admit it looked a bit dim. Maybe it was just the version I was watching. It was cool to see such classic figures like Maid Marian, Little John, and Friar Tuck gradually introduced in this well paced film. I even felt we learned something about medieval times and the role of religion in that period. Not as good as the Erroll Flynn version, but still nice. ***

JelenaG890 Okay, so as Robin Hood, Kevin Costner cannot hold a candle to Errol Flynn. He plays the role the same way he acted in all of his films from the 1990's- kind of like Wyatt Earp in the Middle Ages. However, Costner isn't what makes the film entertaining for me. The supporting cast, especially Alan Rickman and Morgan Freeman, steal the show from Costner, the supposed star of the film. As the Sheriff, Rickman is (like always) brilliant and even better, considering his role was mainly ad- libbed. Morgan Freeman is also great in his role, and has some truly memorable lines.Aside from Costner's performance, famously spoofed by Mel Brooks, the weakest link for me is the actress who plays Marian. At times, she seems like she truly does not want to be the film at all, and would rather be anywhere else other than near Costner. Then again, she was a last minute replacement for the role, so perhaps that's why she has zero chemistry with her leading man.The action scenes are fun, though, and worth a view. If you want to see a really good Robin Hood film, though, check out Errol Flynn's version from 1938! Flynn was born to play Robin Hood. Costner... not so much.

Francisco Sousa Faria da Silva Personally, this is one of my favorite movies of all time. In my opinion it's also the best adaptation alongside "The Adventures of Robin Hood" with Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland.There's something magical about this movie. I love the story, the actors, the costumes, the places, the colors, the music! Everything seems to fit well and in my opinion, the result is a wonderful adventure and romantic movie.Michael Kamen's music is also another strong point and helps the viewers to travel to time period of the story, something he did again in "The Three Musketeers" two years later. The movie has some good values to pass to young audiences. It deals with friendship, honor, courage, injustice and righteousness.All in all, I love this movie and I can watch it over and over again and never tire of it.

cybopath For some reason I've never watched this film. I guess I wasn't really a Kevin Costner fan as a kid, who is?, and I even think back then I found an American Robin Hood stupid. Alas however with an interest in Historical Adventure I decided to get round to this. What the actual hell 1991? This was your second highest grossing film?I was expecting a Hollywood movie, no doubt. I know that entails a certain amount of Americanization and commercialization. It happens in Braveheart for example but they still have a foot in some kind of reality even if they paint characters with broad strokes.But this? Everyone who isn't good is a sniveling pantomime villain, Alan Rickman is like a cinematic version of Blackadder. He is raised by a devil worshiping witch... WHAT THE FLUFF? Complete with a children's TV dungeon set that has dry ice and green lights. Why stop there guys why not just give him a dragon too?The main problem aside from the casting of Robin Hood is this is neither fish nor fowl. If they had intended to make a swash buckling adventure movie, something like Zorro, maybe some of this cheese would be over looked but every so often they try and make this some profound historical epic with Kevin spewing out some half assed noble words. Honestly the one with the cartoon fox was more believable.
