After rewatching this movie way years later. It's a bit slow for a long time. Then if you stand back. It's more of a love drama movie than anything else. Everything bout it makes u go hmmmm cause it doesn't follow any Robin Hood stories but the names of people and places.

As it is, apart from some of the character names, it has nothing to do with the legend of Robin Hood. Obviously the use of the title Robin Hood was a cynical attempt to get bums on seats. Ridley Scott should be thoroughly ashamed of himself for peddling this trash.

I enjoyed the classic fairy tales and the lesser known tales and loved my book collection which featured all the various variations of those same fairy tales. Snow White varied greatly as did many others from one author/compilation to another. Thus, I am perfectly satisfied with a well done movie which does not follow the same path as the written version or prior film versions.People who didn't understand aspects of this film such as the children in the forest and other elements must not have actually watched it with both eyes open and ears cleaned of wax.Watch, listen, enjoy this version of Robin Hood which provides additional layers to the histories of the characters we love and hate in the legend of Robin Hood.
