ROBIN HOOD - PRINCE OF THEIVES(1991)
This starts out quite light and stays that way for the first
half of the movie! Then turns very dark! And the last battle
scene is amoung the best ever filmed!! Is this a good film,
no, not really. It's a great film!!! If you don't like this
movie something is truly wrong with you!!! Worth many, many
watches, as I have seen almost all of the itterations of
Robin Hood and believe this to be the absolute best!! A+
From IMDb.com:
When Robin (Kevin Costner) and his Moorish companion (Morgan
Freeman) come to England and the tyranny of the Sheriff of
Nottingham, he decides to fight back as an outlaw.
Sure, this Robin Hood does not speak with an English accent.
In fact, the language thing is a bit of a mystery, as it seems
odd the Moor would speak the same language and dialect as
everyone else. But let us not dwell on technicalities that
get in the way of a good story.
This is very much the definitive Robin Hood. Perhaps the
classic Technicolor Robin is a contender, and of course you
have the Disney version. But this is the one that sticks
in most people's minds today (2015). Ridley Scott tried
to outdo it, but he failed miserably. Costner is Robin
Hood, and who can forget that remarkable soundtrack? - gavin6942
