Audience Reviews for The Story of Robin Hood and His Merrie Men

  • May 20, 2010
    One of the best renditions of the Robin Hood Legend, second only to The Errol Flynn version.
    Kyle S Super Reviewer
  • Jan 27, 2010
    It's not bad, but it was a pointless movie to make. It doesn't improve on Errol Flynn's version at all, in fact it's inferior. I think it's a little bit more kid friendly, but that's about it. The acting was so-so and the story flows about as good as it can. Overall, it's better than the Kevin Costner version, but that's something not too hard to achieve.
