Spoiler-free review of Robin Hood

I meant to say in this video: the tone is grittier than usual for the story. There are no spoilers in this(although at the very ending of it, I do reveal what characters from the legend are in this, and whether or not the Magna Carta is in this, for anyone interested in such; this starts at about 5 minutes in, and I warn before saying either). I made this as much for those who have not watched it yet as for those who have. There is no swearing in this review, though I do make references meant for the audience that the film was made for, meaning not below the age of 13.

I recorded this a few hours after getting back from the cinema yesterday. I did not finish editing it until today. I hope you enjoy it, and that I can help spark debate about the film.

Below is the spoiler-ridden video where I go over thoughts I had on it. It is intended for those who have already watched it. There is an instance of mild swearing in it, and make references meant for the audience that the film was
made for, meaning not below the age of 13. It is available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYzL7baWI4A

As usual, any and all feedback is very welcome. You can post here, send me a message or email me at Grann-Bach@jubii.dk. If you email me, be sure to include review and/or the title of one of the things I've reviewed in the subject line, or I may delete it, thinking it's spam.

I know, it´s a bit nihilistic, but I really cant see what the point of a new Robin Hood movie is.

@PeterRoeder31 I don't think that's nihilistic. It claims that this is the historical origins of the legend, and it's of course gritty, because all movies have to be nowadays.

This is so funny! Kneecapped1000 does a send up of Russell Crowes audition for Robin Hood, complete with Irish accents et al! On Youtube. A must see!
