The Siege of Robin Hood

Say what you will about the legion of Robin Hood depictions. Yes, like Batman, you could argue that they've been done to death, so the choice to lighten the tone with a fun, comedic (at times) martial arse-kicking, ambitious indie offering, is a sound one. I found that preferable to Crowe chewing the intense scenery in Ridley Scott's departure from the myth. Siege works because it doesn't take itself too seriously and offers enough action and heart to appeal to the less cynical of viewers. Paul can fight and carry the leading man gauntlet, and for the most part, the supports do well. Forgive any gaps in 'Hollywood quality' as this film was intended as an antidote to the grandiosity of more like minded, mega budgeted fare. A solid, promising debut.

I attempted to ignore reviews but, jesus. First couple minutes in and you could tell how awful this film is. Actors are just bouncing around making random sounds not knowing where to even look. It's like a food lion brand Disney TV show.

If you love fantasy, action or a great story (or all of the above!) you're in for a treat. Couldn't recommend it higher. Well done to all cast and crew for producing a 10/10 film.

This whole movie was like a toddler made it. I actually think a toddler could probably make a better film if i'm being honest. Terrible acting, special FX, roll play etc...Made it about 20 minutes in before I couldn't take it any longer.

The set, costumes, everything is just B movie perfect.

I love that the cart taking the prisoners had car tyres.

That the horses lived in a stable built of concrete breeze blocks.

Only in 12 minutes, and am so excited by how bad it is.

EDIT: Finished the movie, am I the only one?

Actually, some of the fight scenes towards the end were not all that bad, seriously!

Plenty of fun, B-movie or not.

Even a Viking funeral at the end, I kid you not.
