My Robin Hood 2018 review
Intro: Is it me or does this movie reminds you of the mask of Zorro or Arrow?
Robin Hood 2018: This movie is centered on Robin of Loxley who's living the good life in Nottingham until he's drafted for the war. Four years later he returns home to learn that he lost everything thanks to the Sheriff of Nottingham. After learning that the Sheriff is doing this to others, he decides to overthrow him before the people of Nottingham have nothing with the help of an unlikely ally.
This is the worst Robin Hood movie I've seen so far!
Part of the reason why is because this movie feels like it's trying to be a superhero movie, Robin Hood is not a superhero! One of the problems with this movie is the first ten or fifteen minutes of the movie. What's the point of having the beginning of the movie be about the war if that serves no purpose in the overall story? Also, we have no reason to cheer for Robin Hood and boo the Sheriff. The Sheriff isn't stealing money from anybody he's taxing them to fund the war. That's not a good enough reason for the viewers to think he's the bad guy, taxing and drafting people to go to war is his job. Plus he isn't dropping bodies to get the money unlike Robin. The only bad thing the Sheriff has done in this movie is talk about doing bad things, to be fair how would you react if someone is stealing money for the war? Speak of war why is England at war with Arab? The people of Nottingham say that there oppose but we don't see that plus there are no characters for us to see their point of view. The movie also drops the ball with setting up conflict and relationships. Does anyone else find it odd that the people of Nottingham are wearing modern clothes?
Robin Hood is upbeat and compassionate. What bugs me about him is that he has on motivation for stealing the money because he doesn't have a good rapport with the people of Nottingham and he isn't interested in doing that. He just wants to get his girlfriend Marian back the problem with that is the movie doesn't spend enough time developing their relationship for us to care about that. I don't like how he treats Marian's new boyfriend Will Tillman I mean he acts like he stole Marian away from him.
Speaking of Will Tillman he's the voice of the people. You'll feel sorry for him because no one seems to support him.
John is Robin's mentor he trains and guides robin in taking down the Sheriff. That's what annoys me about this character he has no reason to do this, the movie set up a revenge story for him but the writers forget about it.
Friar Tuck is the comic relief character.
Marian is just eye candy.
I like the training montage, the movie is well-paced and it can be entertaining at times. Yeah, that's pretty much all the good things I have to say about this movie. With all that said this is a forgettable film that could have been better with rewrites.
Rating = Trash

That's saying a lot because I don't have fond memories of those movies.
