Robin Hood previews

Ridley Scott has once again teamed with Russell Crowe to bring a classic story to life in a gritty reincarnation. This interpretation of the Robin Hood story stays true to the historical record of life after King Richards crusades. The directors cut builds on the cinema release and for those who felt bemused by the story line of the forest children in the cinema release all will now make sense when you watch it as ridley scott would want. Great story line, brilliant directing and a quality twist on a story most of us are familiar with.

Thanks to the power of blu-ray this is a much better option to the dvd with both the theatrical and directors cut on the one disk.

You get what you pay for. A good swashbuckling hero movie, a twist on the classic legend with a typically strong performance from Crowe and the somewhat reluctant, hero, Longstride.

Well shot and good fun, Ridly Scott knows how to do a decent historical epic.

Fascinating, captivating and beautiful, if not pretty, to watch. Crowe and Blanchett are sublime. Delivered far more than I anticipated.
