Charlie S In 2025, nostalgia can highlight some of its best parts, but many of the jokes fail to land. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/17/25 Full Review Will M Everything just fell completely flat. You could really feel the age in the humour, choreography, score, even the acting quality. Weak. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/10/25 Full Review Samuel W This movie has plenty of hilarious, weird moments that are beautifully complimented by Cary Elwes, who plays a fourth wall- breaking, charming Robin Hood who embarks on a classic Mel Brooks adventure. The movie has its moments of hilarity, and it was a laugh out loud kind of movie. The jokes didn't feel too dated unlike earlier Mel works and the acting was phenomenal. The characters were all fun and had their own little consistencies in the intentionally inconsistent film. This was a wonderful movie to just turn your brain off to. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/02/25 Full Review Kat A This is a classic in my book. It's silly, stupid, crazy, and farcical, so if you're looking for something to analyze then maybe watch something else. But if you want stupidity, fourth wall breaks, and quotable quotes, this is the one for you. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/01/25 Full Review Shaun R Ridiculous and very funny. The rap and camp dance scenes are as good now as they were when I was a kid. My daughter loves this film. One of the better slapstick comedy films. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/31/24 Full Review John C I never watched this back in the nineties, but I was aware of it. I had, however, seen similar films which were basically parodies of popular movies or genres of the time, such as 'Hotshots, The Naked Gun' and 'Loaded Weapon.' I enjoyed them all back in the day, but it's taken me until 2024 to get round to this one. Weirdly, I may have been the only fourteen year old to not really be that into 1991's 'Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves,' but I remember how popular it was at the time and it's still regarded as a classic to this day. Therefore, film-maker Mel Brooks decides to make a parody of it with his 'Men in Tights' offering. The story basically follows the classic version of the tale of Robin Hood that we all know. Brooks also made 'Spaceballs' which is effectively poking fun at 'Star Wars' and I recall I enjoyed that, so I do like his humour. But my 2024 brain just didn't find many laughs in 'Men in Tights.' It's odd, as I reckon that if I was still in my mid teens I probably would have liked this much more and, if I watched it today, it would no doubt bring back nostalgic memories which would make me rate it higher. Sadly, I just didn't find it that funny. Yes, I chuckled a few times, but many of the jokes got samey quite quickly and others were actually the same ones used in 'Spaceballs,' only repurposed for a medieval setting instead of sci-fi. Overall, it's okay. I found it the kind of film you'd have on in the background and dip in and out of. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/16/24 Full Review Read all reviews
