The Siege of Robin Hood
The Siege of Robin Hood
The Siege of Robin Hood opens with Robin (Paul Allica, Danger Close, The Trigonal: Fight for Justice) walking via what's glaringly a present day-day exercise of a medieval fort entire with present day metal gratings. He then steals a defend and makes use of it to slip down the cobblestones to get away the pursuing soldiers.
Along the manner we see an glaringly present day directional sign, a present day, factory-produced clasp on a goat`s leash and a fence with metallic hinges and precision reduce bolt holes. It`s just like the movie`s director, additionally Paul Allica, wasn`t even seeking to make the movie appearance authentic, which makes it extraordinarily difficult to shop for into the movie.

It handiest receives worse as Robin engages multiple Keystone Kops kind guards in a few Jackie Chan-styled humorous martial arts battles handiest with out Chan`s talent or charisma. We do get a person dunked withinside the Medieval equal of a septic tank though.
The Siege of Robin Hood truly bears nearly no relation to the real Legends of Robin Hood. Instead of staying hidden in Sherwood Forest, Robin lives in a cabin on an open plain, likely due to the fact the movie changed into shot in Australia whose forests are very non-English-searching rainforests.
Rather than being an agent of King John, The Sheriff (David Macrae, No Such Thing As Monsters, The Last Supper of the Damned) works for the Queen of Nottingham (Wallis Murphy-Munn, Neighbors) who additionally has Sir Lancelot (Dave Beamish, The Faceless Man, Shards) in her employ. And simply because the frosting at the cake, Merlin (Tom McCathie, Apocalypse Cult, Mutt) additionally makes an appearance.

The plot, such because it is, includes the Sheriff and his guys coming for Robin however killing his sister instead. This pisses him proper off so he places collectively the Merry Men, Little John (Peter Roordink, Elimination Game, Trojan Warrior), Tuck (Keanu Gonzalez), and Freyda (Kahli Williams, Model Behaviour, Blood Hunt) who reputedly is supposed to update Maid Marian.
Most of the development phrase approximately The Siege of Robin Hood centered at the movie`s “R” score for its bloody violence. And there may be a honest quantity of blood spilled, unfortunately, it often includes terrible CGI together with whilst The Sergeant (John Fallon, Deaden, American Muscle) smashes a head in with a mace. Or because the price range didn`t appear to run to truly displaying the killings, photographs of bloody corpses, and glaringly plastic frame parts.

Scenes like that still create a large conflict in tone with those portraying the Queen`s troops as bumbling idiots. It`s jarring to move from deliberately comedian chases to a girl being hacked to demise and lower back again. Granted with the poorly staged combat scenes it`s difficult to inform at instances whether or not a scene is supposed to be humorous or not. Even The Adventures of Maid Marian had higher combat scenes than The Siege of Robin Hood.
I may want to pass on, much like The Siege of Robin Hood is going on for 2 complete hours, however it actually looks like beating a lifeless horse. Or a lifeless peasant because the case can also additionally be. The movie is a complete and utter trainwreck from its indifference toward hiding symptoms and symptoms of present day era to poorly staged movement scenes and abrupt shifts from slapstick to bloody killings. It`s a movie that has no concept what it desires to be, and what it need to be is avoided.
