About
If you want a big, old-school Robin Hood adventure with memorable menace, camaraderie, and lots of action, you’ll likely enjoy this; Not for you if you need a more consistently serious tone or you strongly dislike miscasting in the lead, especially compared with Robin Hood (2010) or The Count of Monte Cristo.
Pros: Alan Rickman’s villainy; memorable score; solid adventure pace | Cons: formulaic writing; miscast lead; sometimes overlong
