Your quintessential Robin Hood story. Hits every beat of the classic story at a very fast pace. Flynn has a solid performance. Decent action
One of the best swashbuckling movies of all time. A real classic
Buckle those swashes and let Flynn's wild charisma dazzle you while he takes all your money and drinks all your good stuff.
Whenever someone uses the word “swashbuckling” I slap them in the face for being pretentious AND I think about this wonderful film.
Fun as hell thanks to some amazing set and costume design, some fantastic performances, great use of color, and perfect dialogue
Watched this all the time when I was young. An enjoyable adventure story.
To brothers and sisters all, never deny that you may be family but never try to put each other down just for power or pleasure.
One of my all time favorites and the BEST Robin Hood film! The acting, the music, the fights, the sets, etc Everything is fantastic in this!
The definitive Robin Hood movie. Don’t let its age deter you, this is an entertaining picture even for modern audiences.
If you don’t mind old films, this is the template for what Robin Hood can be. Flynn is as charming as a cartoon fox. Good-hearted adventure!
