RE: Robin Hood 2018: Almost Bad Enough to Be Funny

in #movies6 years ago

only this one justified itself with the title of Robin Hood.

I remember thinking almost the exact same thing when I watched the Sherlock Holmes movies with Robert Downy Jr. It was just an action movie that used the name to sell tickets.

So much for subtlety. There is none to be found in this film.

Most movies nowadays have no subtlety. Whereas some things used to be left to the imagination, now they show everything! What's the point of having one of the most powerful imagination devices in our skulls if they just force-feed us this garbage?

Just from watching the trailer, I was also perplexed by the costumes. At one point I even thought, "wait, is this Robin Hood or a movie about modern riots."

I wasn't planning on seeing it anyway, but after watching the trailed and reading your review, I'll spend the money on silver coins instead.

Sort:  

Yes, buy some silver instead. I stopped doing so when my sock drawer filled up. 'Force feeding us garbage' is an accurate conclusion.
