Taron Egerton plays the titular lord, who teams up with a Moor (Jamie Foxx) to take on the immoral Sherriff and the Catholic church in an attempt to help his village's struggling workers. Besides the fact that the period is funked up with modern, punk elements, the plot is so absurdly jiggered that it strains credibility and turns Hood into a superhero, instead of a scrappy everyman. Playing to Bathurst's skills, there's plenty of well-staged action and angry violence, but the overall effect of this reboot feels empty and not especially inventive.… Expand

Nothing all that memorable in terms of story or character development, or what little of it there was. Taron Edgerton does a fine enough job in the titular role, but him and the rest of the talented cast can only do so much with a formulaic and predictable story such as this one. Overall, it's pretty forgettable and doesn't really bring anything new to this tale at all.… Expand

Frankly, it's a film that feels very similar to Guy Ritchie's recent King Arthur. A similar approach despite being completely different stories but in the eagerness to update them the essence is lost and therefore despite the budget qualityFrankly, it's a film that feels very similar to Guy Ritchie's recent King Arthur.

I'm sorry anybody who is a fan of the character, but Robin Hood is just plain boring and his titular movie is even more boring. That is the greatest sin of all. What was, by all accounts from the trailer, a fun action adventure instead feltI'm sorry anybody who is a fan of the character, but Robin Hood is just plain boring and his titular movie is even more boring. That is the greatest sin of all. What was, by all accounts from the trailer, a fun action adventure instead felt like a slog that makes you feel every agonizing second of its two hour runtime. Maybe if a good 20 or 30 minutes were chopped off then it could have been a dumb film going at such breakneck speed that it would be easy to overlook its issues. It is painful and it reminds me once again why the only Robin Hood movie worth watching is Men in Tights.… Expand

Has some decent action and visuals but this is mostly a very poor take on the Robin Hood story.

Robin hood 2018 is messy, poorly conceived film that is as watchable as it is forgettable. The cast do ok with the simplistic script but it never challenges the audience to do more than yawn through to the end.

So overall it felt quite average but what really I disliked was that some of the moments in the movie felt so cringeworthy or corny.

Also Marrion (sorry I dunno correct spelling) felt like from 21st century not from whatever century it was meant there. And the dialogue was often a bit dumb and even though I like Taron Egerton, I found his acting with smirks and stuff here a bit like corny. Overall watchable but my expectations for Robin Hood movie werent met… Expand
