Maybe I'm off base.

I liked it. But I'm kindof a hack when it comes to historical dramas. I grade even the schlockiest of crap on a curve if I can find any reason to go Googling it for historical relevance.
I didn't even think Robin Hood was all that terrible. Von Sydow and Hurt; Blanchett being cold (her wheelhouse) and Oscar Isaac chewing scenery with bows and arrows and an almost kinda sorta realistic nod to the Magna Carta? It even had Mark Strong in it! I've loved that guy ever since I saw him in Tinker Taylor Soldier Spy. I've put 2 hours to far worse use than that movie.
