Robin Hood Review

Robin Hood, is the legendary story about a robber in the Middle Ages in England, who stole from the rich and gave to the poor. In this movie we see how Robin Hood came to be that legendary hero.  He was an expert archer, who served King Richard’s army.  When King Richard died, Robin traveled to Nottingham, to return a slain knight’s sword to his father, that’s where he met his true love, and helped the new King repel the invading French.

<strong><span style=”color: #ff0000;”>Talking Points:</span></strong>
We continually saw an inscription, which said, “Rise and rise again, until lambs become lions.”  Robin said, this meant to never give up, which he continually stressed throughout the movie.

There was a lot going on in this movie, which made it very confusing.  A teenage girl that I interviewed said there was not enough character development, while she and her friends liked the movie, they also found it very confusing.

<strong>Sexual Content:</strong> Moderate
<ul>
<li>We saw Prince John in bed with his lover, John’s mother barged into the bedroom, chatted with her, while in bed, then proceeded to get out of bed naked.  This was a strange and uncomfortable scene.</li>
</ul>
<strong>Violent Content: </strong>Excessive<strong>
</strong>

This was a very violent movie with sword fights and battles, and  these battles consumed the whole movie.   Some violent and disturbing scenes were:
<ul>
<li>One man was injured by an arrow on the side of his face and we see the disgusting scar throughout the movie.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>King Richard is killed by an arrow, skewered right his neck .</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>People in the village are locked in a burning building, while woman are screaming and babies are crying.</li>
</ul>
<strong>Profanity:</strong> Mild

<strong>Drug and Alcohol Content:</strong> Mild

I know I haven’t said too many positive things about the movie, and I did get a little bored with all the battle scenes, but for the most part it held my attention. I recommend the movie for teenagers that enjoy action movies with a lot of battle scenes.
