#239. The Adventures Of Robin Hood


"I'll organize revolt, exact a death for a death, and I'll never rest until every Saxon in this shire can stand up free men and strike a blow for Richard and England."

Based on the popular legend, Robin of Locksley is a Saxon who flees to Sherwood forest. There, he  becomes an outlaw they called "Robin Hood". He and his Merry Men steal from the rich, murder, and fight against the Normans in hopes of defeating Prince John and attaining peace and fairness for all of England.
It's a very simple and predictable movie, but I'm guessing it's highly rated and favorited for its classic adventure and good fun. I enjoyed watching it, though I wouldn't say it's one of my favorites. But I've got to admit; it's miles better than the new Robin Hood that recently came out in theaters. The difference in the two is that this movie shows the charm and classic character of Robin Hood, while the recent one is two and a half hours of Robin Hood's boring history.

I don't really have a favorite character, but I suppose I'll choose Will Scarlett (played by Patric Knowles) because he seems like a good humble man. Overall, The Adventures Of Robin Hood was a fun movie to watch, but not by a long shot the best movie I've seen. I'll give it an immediate rating of 6.9.

Characters: 6.9/10
Acting: 7/10
Storyline: 6.8/10
Entertainment Value: 7.1/10
Immediate Rating: 6.9/10

Total Score: 34.7/50
