Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
emilyjmccann The first series episodes were quite excellent, the story lines followed and it was beginning to become a really good TV show. I loved the last episode where Marian punched Guy and left him at the alter to go with robin and the legend started to fall into place. I do wish however, Robin's friendship with the gang was portrayed stronger as it seems Much is supposed to be Robin's best friend - they just drift throughout and its quite annoying to watch.However, once series 2 ended, I was devastated. How can Guy kill Marian? I have watched other adaptations and they all show how Robin and Marian's love lasted and the sheriff and his associates were killed off. If she was to live, I would of love to have seen what would happen next in their relationship. I must admit, I did like Guy's and Marian's intimacy in series 2 because her character is a caring person but Guy saw this care as love. It was clear he was angry but he shouldn't kill her just because she loves another man.Then a pointless series 3 came with a girl called Kate who seemed like the slut of the 'merry men' even though she isn't a man, she really annoyed me and came across to aggressive. Also Robin started to like her? I know he is widow now, but I thought he always loved Marian, why should he go kissing Kate and also Isabella? what was her purpose, she was just as annoying. By this time in the TV show, the story lines started to get repetitive and it is a shame it ended because it could've turned out so differently. All this nonsense about the half-brother business between Guy and Robin is confusing and ridiculous, I found it interesting looking at their lives before hand in episode 10 - "Bad Blood" because it started the beginning of the end. Too be honest, I knew that most of the characters would die and it would be cheesy. The only good thing to come out of this series was friar tuck, I love that character, he was quite philosophical and religious - he did keep to the motto Robin wanted "We do not kill" - however they all did.I did enjoy Robin Hood while it lasted, I loved most of the characters and the portrayal of the Sheriff was done excellently, he did become annoying towards the end which I am glad they killed him off. I do recommend only watching series 1 to anybody who wants to watch this series as the other two just ruin everything (Marian dies, Will and Djaq leave, Sir Edward dies, Guy dies, Allan dies, Robin dies) - leave it as Robin and Marian are in a relationship, they set up the sheriff and the merry men all jump at the end. If only they made different decisions for series 2 then series 3 wouldn't be a flop.
King-Midas Of course this is a children's series. I could point out every historical error, I could criticize the casting, the absurd sounds the flying arrows make, the costumes, the plastic fantasy- chain mail, the fact that the noble Robin is portrayed as an unattractive bum. Fact is, it's just a low end children's series. It all comes with the genre. What do you expect? The budget has it's limits and you simply can not have the best actors, the best costumes and the best historical experts in this time of financial crisis. My son's enjoying every minute of it. He's ten years old. And who I'm I to spoil his fun? Being an archer myself I've seen much worse archery films and series. But seeing Robin Hood shooting a Mongolian-style re-curve bow in stead of an English longbow...? That really hurts. That's just awful.
noelanddusty So badly done. Please!! Please!!! do not waste your time watching this show. Spoiler: The Marion Death is the most unforgivable thing they did but, there were many other things that were just so poorly done. Several of the characters were wildly inconstant, particularly Gisborne. Who early on was established as a cold blooded killer but when the writers ran out of ideas they would just switch his character back and forth. There were so many of the episodes that were false dilemmas. That went on and on over and over again. It was like a bad soap opera. The writers disgraced and destroyed the story of Robin hood. BBC should be ashamed of themselves for putting this out. I have seen many other BBC stuff and loved it but this is just Horrific.
bill501-2 This is the best version of the Robin Hood legend I have seen, movie or TV series, and I have seen them all. It could have only been made in England and be so true to the many variations of the legends and the characters in the legends. I loved the accuracy of the period from the weapons used to the bows and arrows and even to the coinage used in the series. I liked the humanness of all of the characters and the idea that We are Robin Hood. This too hearkens back to the many variations of the legend. If historical Robin Hood was likely many individuals. As legends do, he has become a concept rather than a person. Highly recommended.
