ROBIN HOOD (2010) Final Movie Trailer with Russell Crowe

Check out the final trailer for ROBIN HOOD which stars Russell Crowe, Cate Blanchett, Mark Strong, Scott Grimes, Kevin Durand, Vanessa Redgrave, Alan Doyle and is directed by Ridley Scott.
Yes, yes, and yes!!! Will Robin Hood’s story ever get old? I don’t think it ever will, at least not for me. And I can’t wait to see Russell Crowe take on the role.
Robin Hood Synopsis: The story of an archer in the army of Richard Coeur de Lion who fights against the Norman invaders and becomes the legendary hero known as Robin Hood.
Robin Hood will be released to theaters on May 14, 2010. Watch the trailer below.
I just came back from the theater and I must say I was pleasantly surprised. This new take has great actors, nice costume, great camera direction and a solid story.
The acting is very good and especially Cate Blanchet shines. Max von Sydow’s English is getting better with every movie and he can finally portray someone without a Swedish accent.
The costume is well done and almost as historically accurate as one can ask from a movie that tells a mostly fictional story.
There are a few issues of course, that makes me lower the score.
Comical relief is avoided mostly, but could have been left out altogether in my opinion. Luckily the people used for comic relief are not the ones you’d expect.
And the final battle which is a big part of the movie annoys me greatly in it’s composition, and you will see why when you watch the movie.
And what in the world *is* that weapon that Little John is wielding? Could they not come up with something more appropriate?
