Russel Crowe and Cate Blanchett. I'm a huge fan of Crowe anyway, and doubly so when he's paired with Ridley Scott. Interested to see how it turns out. Should be a LOT better than Costner's version. [Reply]

I thought it was great too. Had some funny parts in it. It's been a long time though. Just an entertaining movie. but this is coming from a guy that thought Waterworld was good. [Reply]

The first quarter of this movie was confusing as hell. Once the pieces started fitting together I really started to enjoy it though. I have never read the books. How well does this movie follow that line? I was kind of surprised that he knew Little John before Sherwood forest. [Reply]
I loved the Kostner Robin Hood, despite its flaws. Great cast. A nice swashbuckling story with heart and humor. Rickman was hilarious, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio was beautiful, Morgan Freeman was Morgan Freeman. Don't give a shit about the accents or lack thereof.
As far as the Crowe Robin Hood goes, all I remember is that I really, really disliked it and (much like the odious Mamoa Conan remake) did not finish it. I don't remember why. And I certainly have no interest in rewatching it to find out. [Reply]
