This movie is plain torture. One of... if not the worst movie of 2010 so far.

If you want to sit through 2 hours of boring dialogue, with boring characters, boring action, not funny jokes, cliched storyline and Russel Crowe, then this movie is for you.

BOOOORING. I kept sitting in my seat praying it got better, only to be disappointed at the credits. Action is messy and sparse. They tried to make it darker, but the combat scenes just aren't brutal enough to convey that message. BOOOORING.

It gets a 1 because it claims to be a movie, and actually is. This movie is awful. The story in this movie get more and more ridiculous. A little piece of me died while I watched this. Save your money and watch it on WGN in about 10 years.

For anything of value that this film had to offer, you're better off watching Gladiator again and pretending that you haven't seen it before..... An hour into this movie, I felt like I had been in the theater for 3 and a half hours.

Just a mess that fools around with the legend for no good reason. No laughs, no charm, no romance, no sexual vibes. And when everyone showed up at the D-Day landing it was laughable.

I give it 2 out of 10 for depicting well the english villages of the end of the XIIIth Century but that´s all... Kevin Cosner´s Robin Hood was, in many ways, much better...

It takes a lot for a film to make me want to walk out of the cinema in disgust, I did not walk out, but by the time I got to the last 20minutes I was saying to myself "please please just end" there was hardly any plot line to fall in love with and it just seemed a VERY empty film.

I will say this though. Fans of the Robin Hood : Prince Of Thieves in my opinion will HATE this

and

Fans of Gladiator that have NOT seen Robin Hood : Prince Of Thieves will probably find this entertaining.

Sorry Ridley Scott but for me this is probably one of your worst films… Expand

Wrong in every way: a protracted, predictable and cliched story, a seriously clunky script, appalling acting by a cast that should know better. An utterly pointless waste of time.
