Reviews

Despite a talented cast and stylish action scenes, Robin Hood fails to hit the mark with many critics. Rotten Tomatoes critic consensus states 'This iteration of the classic story is undermined by poor execution and an incomprehensible plot, resulting in a disappointing movie.' The film's excessive use of CGI and lackluster character development have been criticized by audiences as well. IMDb gives it a rating of 5.3/10, Metacritic scores it at 32/100, and Rotten Tomatoes rates it at a mere 14%. Some reviewers praise Taron Egerton's charismatic performance as the titular character, but overall, the film struggles to live up to its potential.
