Taxation Is Still Theft

Here was my original assessment of this film when I saw the trailer a while back.

I'm not sure I'm completely sold on this take of the Robin Hood story, it feels like this was suppose to be directed by Guy Richie, or they wanted to go that direction similar to the King Arthur movie he made last year. The other thing about remaking a movie is you need to make it better that what was done before, the previous movie was with Russel Crowe which was great and before that was with Kevin Costner in 1991. These were two really amazing films and sets the bar really high to out do, and from the trailer it takes a rather more comical approach than what was done before. I'm not sure this we be as good as the previous versions, lets see what happens.

The verdict, well all I can say is that this sucked. Fifteen minutes in I was so bored, it was just a total waste of time and horribly directed. My advice, give this a massive skip, rather go rematch Prince of Thieves.

This Hood gets a 6/10

I'm a bit hesitant on this style of rehash of the tale.
