It's not Blazing Saddles, but there are some chuckles to be found in Mel Brooks's 1993 spoof of the Robin Hood legend. Cary Elwes is Robin (with a lighthearted jab at Kevin Costner's bad English accent in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves), while Richard Lewis plays an angst-ridden King John, and Roger Rees a snotty Sheriff of Nottingham. Comic David Chappelle has some good moments as the only black member of Robins's noble thieves, and Brooks does his own spin on Friar Tuck: Rabbi Tuchman. The song-and-dance sequences featuring a chorus line of the Merry Men ("We're men / men in tights") is vintage Brooks, but otherwise the film can't get any traction. --Tom Keogh

This was yet another Mel Brooks comedy spoof that could've been better. For every funny joke or sight gag, there's about 2 or 3 stale ones behind it. Nevertheless, it's still a pretty good spoof of the Robin Hood legend. Cary Elwes--one of those actors Hollywood doesn't know what to do with--makes for a wonderful tongue-in-cheek Robin.

It felt almost like watching a serious, dramatic piece like The Adventures of Robin Hood starring Errol Flynn, which is not bad, but in my opinion a movie is only as good as what it is supposed to be. I think more of a seperation from seriousness ... Read More

This is an excelent movie, VERY RECOMMENDED. "... - Why should the people follow you? - Because despite other Robin Hoods, I speak with an english accent...".

This is one of my most favorite movies ever! If you've ever seen any other Robin Hood movie, you'll enjoy laughing and making fun of it while watching this movie. Mel Brooks is genius!
