Robin Hood

[violetpretty]

A basic plot summary without giving away surprises:

King Richard is on his way back from the crusades. A weird twist of fate brings Robin Longstride to Nottingham. France decides to attack England while the people are against Prince John's tyranny. It's basically before he was Robin Hood, robbing the rich to feed the poor.

Hmm. I'm not sure how I feel about that - did you feel the movie wasn't very "Robin Hoody?"

He has the same values before he becomes Robin Hood, and he's already a great archer. There is injustice, and he does save Nottingham in two ways. But with France attacking, he realizes that fighting Prince John and demanding the Magna Carta be signed will have to take a back burner to saving England.
