Hello everyone. I have watched this film and personally did not like it. There were many scenes that were questionable in this movie. One of the first ones that came to mind was, why is there an old woman in the movie practicing sorcery? This does not have anything to do with King John. Another question that came to mind was, where was King John? There was not a single time where he was shown or mentioned in this film. The whole movie seems to be based around the goals of Robin Hood, and the love story between him and Maid Marian. There were also many scenes that presented Alan Rickman's character. We do not even know his name other than that he is the Sheriff of Nottingham. The action scenes were also far too long and drawn out. Why is Will Scarlett portrayed as Robin Hood's (half-)brother? It does not relate in anyway to the rest of the movie and was un-needed. The whole attempted rape scene at the end was also completely un-needed in this film. This is a movie I would not watch again. It did not contain any information that pertained to King John's rulership, which was the basis for the Robin Hood legends to begin with.
