It was thrilling.

It was not moving.

I saw this film last night with a large glass of Kim Crawford.

I opted for the nine ounce.

Thank you to everyone at Regal Paseo.

And it was okay.

I like everybody involved.

I think that this is a fine movie about having regrets at the end of your life and not really a Robin Hood movie at all.

I agree with that.

So that is sort of my, if you want to watch Hugh Jackman be violent and grapple with his choices in a medieval setting.

Two thumbs up.

That's my review of this film.

So maybe you're really into, maybe you want Game of Thrones minus the magic and dragons.

Well, Bill Simmons and I disagree.

1,000%, but the film does not engage with the myth in any way, shape, or form.

It starts at the very, very end.

I mean, it has some gnarly battle scenes, but...

It doesn't engage in the myth or the ideology of Robin Hood in any way.

It doesn't give you any sense of his life and backstory beyond him just saying, actually, my name is Robin Hood a few times.

To dispel the myth, you have to, if not portray it, then at least communicate it.
