The Siege of Robin Hood

When I saw the poster I got the vibe of Mad Max but how wrong I was, I knew once I started watching it.

Well, they did attempt to make it but too bad that it failed.

I hope they do better in the future.

12 minutes and 30 seconds in, I couldn't take anymore. Cringe, lame (that's just the first 10+min); what was the point of this video? I've seen parodies and fan-made videos on YouTube (not particularly about Robin Hood) that had better VFX, acting, transitions, jokes and filters. The trailer is the only "professional" product of this video project.

After seeing the settings in the first 12.5 min of this video, it seems that whatever money was spent on this, would've been more effective had it been invested in a LEGO stop motion video titled: "The Siege of Robin Hood" and uploaded on YouTube.

Speaking of Robin Hood on YouTube; copy and paste the following in the YouTube Search box, and select the first video to watch a proper telling of Robin Hood: eRz2UFPo9BQ.

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.

What can I say? Aren't there minimum standards for quality control?

Anyone who sees this wonders who is waving through something like this since it's so incredibly poorly done.

Every cosplay meeting offers better costumes.

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.
