Robin Hood (2018)
7/10
A modern, lighthearted take on an overdone story
25 February 2019
The classic tale of robin hood is known by everybody, its probably one of the most popular fairy tale stories. But it's also a story that has been done time and time again in Hollywood, each time it is done it tries to make a completely different interpretation of the original fairy tale.

Robin Hood (2018) is no exception to this, what many are shutting down for its complete straying from the original tale of Robin hood. Is actually a very refreshing reboot of an over done, and frankly quite boring tale of a skilled bowman stealing from the rich and redistributing to the poor. A children friendly take on socialism really.

It's a very enjoyable story in its original form sure, but how many times do you have to reinvent the wheel for it the become boring? Not many times I've found when it comes to Robin Hood movies.Robin Hood (2010) and this 2018 remake of the classic tale are very enjoyable, fresh faces. This remake features all your favorite characters from the tale in a new light. With some spectacular, albeit heavily CGI action scenes to go with it. The action scenes are really quite intuitive and feels like a modern shooter movie in a way at times.

If you watch this movie expecting it to be like the original Robin Hood tale, you may not enjoy it, but, if you are tired of the same tale and want something new you will enjoy this movie.
