Robin Hood (2010)
TOMATOMETER
AUDIENCE SCORE
Critic Consensus: Ridley Scott's revisionist take on this oft-told tale offers some fine acting and a few gripping action sequences, but it's missing the thrill of adventure that made Robin Hood a legend in the first place.

We never even get to see Robin steal from the rich and give to the poor. That's because the film is a prequel in search of a sequel. With any luck, we won't get one.
It's a prequel of sorts to the popular folklore, a prequel that nobody asked for.
Dark and depressing, this adventure lacks all of the excitement and joy of many of Robin Hood's previous adventures.
Despite [its] problems, it is still worth seeing mainly because of its fascinating take on the characters.
I thought [Robin Hood] was going to be the best film of the year ... [it] never gels.
There are fleeting moments when Scott's camera captures some of the mystery and magic of the greenwood, catches sunlight and shadows and glancing figures flitting through the trees - and you glimpse the enduring potency of the Robin Hood myth.
Audience Reviews for Robin Hood
A truly polarizing film. Writing this review a couple of months after seeing it, it feels forgettable, but I remember being entertained, and thinking that the story was well-organized with a few clever angles in the adaptation. I'm saying the same about this as I did about Body of Lies: mediocre for Ridley Scott is still better work than a lot of Hollywood garbage.
Super Reviewer
Epic, powerful war scenes. Strong acting. Lots of fun!
Super Reviewer
A decent enough film, with good production value. However it's no Gladiator this time out, in truth it feels more like a prequel to what led up to the tale of Robin Hood. It can't top prince of Thieves though for me.

| Robin Longstride: | The laws of this land enslave people to its king. A king who demands loyalty but offers nothing in return. |
