Critics Consensus

Ridley Scott's revisionist take on this oft-told tale offers some fine acting and a few gripping action sequences, but it's missing the thrill of adventure that made Robin Hood a legend in the first place.

Deborah Ross

The Spectator

Scott decided, I think, to get away from the whole campy thing in tights business and wanted to make this 'real'. So there is sweat and dirt and rats at the cheese and even bad teeth, which is fair enough, but it is also joyless.

Christian Science Monitor

We never even get to see Robin steal from the rich and give to the poor. That's because the film is a prequel in search of a sequel. With any luck, we won't get one.

IndieWire

Its $200-million budget is on the screen. This is a big-scale ambitious period epic in the 60s grand tradition. It seeks to retell a well-worn tale, to put old wine in a shiny new bottle.

Give me a Robin Hood that can beat the crap out of the Kevin Costner hero I grew up wearing a VHS tape out on and I'm good to go.

Deep Focus Review

Robin Hood grasps the political and emotional climate of the legend, adding dimensions to the age-old tale that seems increasingly stale with each new interpretation.

Rated: 3.5/4

... an origin story for the familiar myth with elements of class, royal politics, and the disillusionment of soldiers returning from the Crusades demoralized by a misguided quest.

It's unusual. A prequel to the usual legend. But what I cannot grasp is why the film opens on a night chase through the forest of a man who is clearly wearing a motorcycle helmet.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

Robin hood origin story, about how Robin Longstride becomes Robin Hood. I really enjoyed it and think this movie is great. The hate in some reviews I have read is shocking to me. Please watch it and leave a review

Well made and sticks to the source material. I’m tired of Hollywood taking well crafted stories from our past and making them campy and contemporary while playing hip hop. There is something to be preserved from stories that speak against tyranny and fighting for liberty and the love between men and women that perpetuate a healthy society.

Ridley Scott did good here, I'd say. Tremendous cast that is very able in character, great cinematography and very well written. Enjoyed it a lot, tells the tale the way I like to interpret it. Great movie
