Robin Hood: The Spectical
There are some who say that Robin Hood: The Movie is Gladiator revisited. I don't say that, I say it is a spectical like Gladiator and Spartacus and those kinds of movies. If you are going to the movie to see a larger than life movie based a little more on actual history than most movies about Robin Hood actually are you will be happy with the movie. If you go to see Russell Crowe and Cate Hudson and all the rest act their hearts out you will get that too. But if you are going for a mushy swashbuckling love story like usual Robin Hood's that are at most a legendary Fairy tale you're not going to get that. This is a very realistic movie in a lot of ways. It is believable in most ways except I don't think they had corn to plant in that century, but maybe wheat they had, just not corn yet because no one had been to the new world yet. So, for me this was the only real serious flaw I personally found in the whole thing. For historians, I'm sure the movie takes liberties as they all do to draw in audience. But Cate Blanchett really shines in this movie. Russell Crowe seems like he is suffering physically through this movie likely because of his ongoing achilles tendon injury which he finally had operated on May 6th, 2010. Still, since most people were physically suffering back then all the time in one way or another it only lends credibility of the times to the movie.
