It's an utter failure.
What I'd like to know is if people just weren't interested in THIS Robin Hood or if they're tired of Robin Hood in general.
That's a good point. Maybe Robin Hood needs to go away for an exceptionally long time.
I did enjoy Robin Hood 2010, although I know the majority didn't, and I would have preferred a follow-up to that story rather than another new Robin Hood origin story.
I thought Ridley Scott's film was okay. Not particularly good, but not exactly bad either. It was watchable.
Personally, I don't think we've gotten a good Robin Hood adaptation--movie or television--since Prince of Thieves in '91. I recently tried to watch the BBC series from a little while back and just couldn't get into it.
The story's a good one, but no one seems to know how to tell it.
Prince of Thieves is definitely my favorite although Men in Tights is a close 2nd.
shareThe whole movie just looked terrible from the trailer. Really not surprised. I just don't get how anyone thought this would work, but who knows, maybe it's a hidden gem! If it comes to Netflix, I'll give it a whirl.
share12 days now, only $48m global. Has the studio learned anything?
