Robin Hood


Robin Hood is a new spin on the classic, produced by Leonardo DiCaprio, staring Taron Egerton and Jamie Foxx. The action adventure follows Robin of Loxley, a Lord drafted to become a Crusader and later a vigilante.

The plot was interesting but incredibly predictable. The script was corny and poorly written.

The costumes, locations and weapons were all modernized but I couldn’t tell what era we were even in. It was confusing and didn’t make sense. It also had more of an Assassins Creed vibe than a traditional Robin Hood feel.

The character development was weak and the acting was terrible. There were two actors in particular, Jamie Foxx and Eve Hewson, who couldn’t even keep their accents the entire time. It was a huge disappointment to see Foxx in this role. For someone with his caliber of talent it felt like he wasn’t even trying.

One of the only good things about this movie was that the fight scenes were high action and fun. That alone, however, was not enough to save this move. Save two hours of your life and avoid this movie at all costs.
