What to Know

Critics Consensus

Robin and Marian gives the legendary characters a somber sendoff, finding ample success in the romantic chemistry between Sean Connery and Audrey Hepburn while yielding diminishing returns in its attempts at relevant satire.

Pauline Kael New Yorker Lester and Goldman must have wanted to out-Kubrick Kubrick. the lack of sympathy for the farmers and the soldiers turns the film into an impersonal essay in carnage. Dec 1, 2023 Full Review Jay Cocks TIME Magazine Robin and Marian is a film that must stand or fall on the strength of its stars. Fortunately, it has two of the best." Mar 31, 2014 Full Review Ian Nathan Empire Magazine The atmosphere is one of melancholy as Lester penetrates through the gauze of fantasy to find the human heart, and softly finds it beating. Rated: 3/5 Mar 31, 2014 Full Review Steve Warren The Barb (Atlanta) Richard Leister directed Robin and Marian, his finest film yet in many respects. He adds his antic comedy to the beginning, but lets love and adventure carry the bulk of the film. May 9, 2023 Full Review Rob Gonsalves Rob's Movie Vault The movie is less nihilistic than simply truthful, an effective rebuttal to the Errol Flynn classic. Rated: B+ Nov 29, 2022 Full Review Stephen Underhill Philadelphia Gay News Robin and Marian is basically a failure, but it has its moments. Even if we laugh at it more than with it, it isn't boring, and it isn't depressing. May 26, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

CodyZamboni Z Good chemistry between legendary stars, I liked the realistic, earthy production design, and mature sensibilities, A nice change from the normal Hollywood gloss, Also liked the surprisingly emotional climax. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/31/24 Full Review BJ M This was really weak. Two big name stars can't carry the heavy load. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/24 Full Review Marcus T Pretty slow moving with a weird ending. Not a great role for Audrey Hepburn. The love story didn't really work. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/24 Full Review Jerry R A bittersweet ode to an olde romance. Very well done by Connery and Hepburn Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/08/23 Full Review Singingway James Goldman's screenplay includes some of the most interesting and unexpected dialogue you'll ever find in a movie, especially one in a folkloric-historical setting. I struggled with the ending, but found it a fascinating envisioning of how the legends of Robin Hood could have been grounded in the gritty reality of life in medieval Europe, and in real people with their limitations, failings and strengths. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/10/23 Full Review caitlin c I'm sad to say this was pretty boring. I just don't understand what the point was of jumping in time like this..some things are better left to the imagination.. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
