Robin Hood (2010) Movie Review

A story of my favorites from my childhood was Robin Hood. For those who do not know Robin Hood is an outlaw hero in English folklore. A highly skilled swordsman and archer Robin Hood became an outlaw after the return of King Richard the Lionheart's crusade.

Recently, as I know, I'm sure, Sir Ridley Scott has decided to pull another epic story, and gives himself to us in the summer movie season. For this show, he chose his favorite actors heroic, none other than Russell Croweto play Robin Hood.

This story is a sort of prequel to what we already know about Robin Hood. Take the story of Robin Hood is fighting in the Crusades. According to Richard the Lionheart's death in battle to decide Robin and three of his closest companions to leave the army and his house. As the story progresses, Robin Longstride assumes the identity of Robin Loxely and attempts to unify the barons of northern England. This is caused primarily by the clashes motivated byKing John's unjust taxes on the common people of the country. The film culminates with the arrival of the south coast of England by the French. Robin leads them to victory, but later outlawed by a jealous King John.

I was really surprised how much I liked this movie. I knew that I like. Russell Crowe killing people with a bow and arrow, and bringing justice to the weak (as he did in Gladiator), what could go wrong. But I thought the story was very excitingand the action was breathtaking. For nearly two and a half hours I felt like I was in the 12th Century in England.

I also like the supporting cast. Cate Blanchett was amazing as Lady Marion. At first I did not really buy, casting. But she played the will-power, intelligent character of a tee. I also have a lot of humor, Kevin Durand Mark Addy and enjoyed the film as Friar Tuck and Little John gave each.

So far, the summer movie season is stillThey treat us very well. I enjoyed Robin Hood at different levels. The fight scenes were not hard to follow, hate cam uncertain what they do. The movie was funny and the plot is interesting. I like to give Robin Hood a 10 Geektime It's a d10 of outlaws.
