The sountrack to this movie just says it all, this movie is to die for, I have watched it over a thousand times and never get bored, I had to buy this special edition because I wanted to watch every scene, it has a lot of deleted scenes with gives you a better insight into the movie especially, the characters.
Robin Hood played by Kevin Costner, returns home to England, to find out that the Sheriff of Nottingham, played by Alan Rickman, has turned his home into an inhabitable land where the rich rule and trample on the poor. Robin returns in time to save the day with his band of outlaws as his merry men and his right hand. He also has to rescue his love Lady Marian from the evil grips of the Sheriff. Alan Rickam steals the show as we are supposed to hate him but can't help but love him, also his acting as a loony is perfect to the core, Morgan Freeman also delivers a good performance.
This is one that I always show off in my collection and never lend to people, I think Kevin Costner was reaped of an oscar (as usual), he deserved one, i wouldn't go into the story line as we all know the basics of Robin Hood, steals from the rich and gives to the poor...but still isn't it nice to hear and watch a good story over and over again
This movie is filled with adventure from the beginning to the end. You can watch it alone or with friends and family. Look out for a few bloopers, hint when Little John is standing at the river and is about to fight with Robin Hood for his medalion
p.s. the soundtrack, Brian Adams's 'Everything I do, do it for you' is timeless...we all need this one in our trophy case, we don't see movies like this any longer, get your copy before it is sold out...truly, i'm not kidding
