Not bad - for Part I
PostedMay 16, 2010

I share others' comments about how this movie feels like Part I, because it probably is. While the setting was realistic, I'm not really a Russell Crowe fan; I went because I'm a Robin Hood fan :). Part II will be better, I'm sure, now that Part I has given us all the background and some of the history. More of Little John, Will Scarlett and Alan A'Dale, please!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Not a bad adaptation

While not sticking perfectly to the book, this is still an exciting introduction for kids who might never have otherwise learned anything about mythology. I can't wait to see what they do with the remaining four books. I would leave kids who are 7 and under at home, unless they're very adventurous.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Lots of action...

A very enjoyable, action-packed film. Downey is excellent, as always, and Jude Law, who had not impressed me previously, seems up to the challenge. Not a particularly deep plot, but the good guys win and the bad guys lose and, after all, isn't that reassuring?
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Predictability-thy name is Hollywood
PostedNovember 16, 2009

Let me start by saying the special effects were terrific and the movie was worth the price; I love disaster movies and love John Cusack! However - and without giving too much of the plot away - some of the leads who died were merely (worn out) plot driven. It would have made a more interesting movie to see less predictable outcomes chosen. All in all, though, it was well worth the price.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Great summer fun

Loud, nonsensical (in parts), and extremely fast paced - I don't know a better definition for a summer film. However, do NOT take young children! I had a 4-5 year old in front of me and parts terrified him.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
