Enjoyable, but...

My wife and I liked the movie, even though it seemed a bit of a mixture of Gladiator and Braveheart. The historical anomalies of the "charter" or Magna Carta being inserted seemed anachronistic, even though the cry for freedom is inspirationally useful as a plot "hook" and helps otherwise explain the how Robin could be a "noble" criminal. An interesting interpretation that could be taken away from this movie is the relationship between the governed and the government, especially in this era of a "tea party."
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The 3D version of Avatar was a tour de force of digital effects. Just compare this to the flat people on the ship’s deck in Titanic. The story moved along at a sometimes-frenetic (which I think is a cover for the challenges of computer graphics) pace and stayed on a level that didn’t really plumb the depths of its content – intra-species-racial-capitalist-exploitive militarism. The major recurring theme of a Gaia type planet was lame, but probably palatable to a generally non-scientific public. I completely enjoyed the movie but it’s not one of my all-time greats.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
