My Movie Review: The movie is young at heart and surprisingly much fun than the old classic! Robin Hood 2018 is far from the serious adaptations so better not compare cause this one is getting to another direction which is light and easy sitting rather than grim and dark storytelling! The critics judged this film harshly without considering the good points like this new take bring young blood to the quest and the story has bit twist but not complicated is easy to understand:) Ben Mendelsohn is tough-looking man that commands hierarchy and respect little bit intimating perfect for his role and the sudden death was unexpected act leaving him hang upon his neck:) At first I was hesitant to watch because of the low ratings and negative reviews in this movie but forget about the critics saying and experience it for yourself I really enjoy such a good time!
Movie News: An action-heavy, retrofitted-for-youth 'Robin Hood' shouldn't work, but it's more honest fun than the Kevin Costner or Russell Crowe versions. If you’re a purist about Robin Hood, then you probably won’t go for “Robin Hood.” It’s a let’s-retrofit-the-legend-for-the-kids movie, and it’s not shy about its fast and furious action-and-attitude makeover tendencies. The battle scenes, fought with bows and arrows, really are battles, in which the arrows land with the force of bullets, destroying on contact. And in case that isn’t enough for you…the movie is an origin story! None of the new “Robin Hood” takes place in Sherwood Forest. It’s set in the castle corridors and teeming streets of Nottingham, a vast medieval village where Robin, an aristocrat who returns after fighting for the British in Arabia, learns that his family estate has been seized by the dastardly Sheriff of Nottingham (Ben Mendelsohn). Robin also loses his squeeze, Marian, who was told by the sheriff that he was killed in battle. (That’s why she’s now with Dornan’s Will.) The movie is about how a broken dude turns himself into a freedom fighter.
