Action
3.5 stars
Definitely a guy film filled with battle scenes and back stabbing. This version of Robin Hood starring Russell Crowe tries to give it a more historical approach and attempts to trace the origins of Robin and why he became who he is. An interesting tactic, but there’s no romance with the hardened Maid Marion (Cate Blanchett) and not enough of jolly Friar Tuck. Mostly, it’s battles, sword fights, bow and arrow shooting, terrorized villagers, a conniving King John (Oscar Isaac of The Nativity Story) and his betrayer Godfrey (Mark Strong of Sherlock Holmes who bears a striking resemblance to Stanley Tucci) . Needless to say, Jim loved it, but I wasn’t all that excited about it.

About Me
- Mary
- I love movies. I love the big screen in a darkened theater with a great sound system. I love the popcorn with the fake butter too! I go to the theater 2 or 3 times a week, depending on what movies are out. Luckily, my husband allows me to be a spoiled housewife who doesn't have to work anymore, so I can enjoy quiet matinees. Even with the not so great movies, I can usually find something I like about them. If you are the "hard to please" type, this page is probably not for you.
