Editorial Review:
Description:
A classic tale of Sherwood Forest. Robin Hood robs the rich to aid the poor, tries to rid England of Prince John's tyranny and gain the hand of the lovely Maid Marian.
Amazon.com essential video:
Dashing Errol Flynn is the definitive Robin Hood in the most gloriously swashbuckling version of the legendary story. Warner Brothers reunited Michael Curtiz, their top-action director, with the winning team of Flynn and Olivia de Havilland (Maid Marian) and perennial villain Basil Rathbone as the aristocratic Sir Guy of Gisbourne, and pulled out all stops for the production. It became their costliest film to date, a grandly handsome, glowing Technicolor adventure set to a stirring, Oscar-winning score by Erich Wolfgang Korngold. The decadent Prince John (a smoothly conniving Claude Rains) takes advantage of King Richard's absence to tax the country into poverty but meets his match in the medieval guerrilla rebel Robin Hood and his Merry Men of Sherwood Forest, who rise up and, to quote a cliché coined by the film, "steal from the rich and give to the poor." Stocky Alan Hale Sr. plays Robin's loyal friend Little John (a part he played in Douglas Fairbanks's silent version), Eugene Palette the portly Friar Tuck, and Melville Cooper the bumbling Sheriff of Nottingham. Flynn's confidence and cocky charm makes for a perfect Robin Hood, and his easygoing manner is a marvelous counterpoint to Rathbone's regal bearing and courtly diction. The film climaxes in their rousing battle-to-the-finish sword fight, a magnificently choreographed scene highlighted by Curtiz's inventive use of shadows cast upon the castle walls. --Sean Axmaker

Tnis is a Christmas gift for my son but this has to be one of my favorite all time movies. I love Errol Flynn and his athleticism and his anything goes attitude made this a fun movie to watch. The cast was a oerfect match and played well off each other. A must see on regular dvd so it must be really spectacular in bluray.

Far from the earth-shattering restoration we were promised in this BluRay edition, this is just another direct port to BluRay from DVD.
The audio is still mono, a major disappointment. Still a great movie, but Warner Brothers didn't deliver the BluRay product they promised.
Those of us with upconverting players will get quality every bit as good from the plain old DVD version.

As opposed to the profane, dark, cruel anti-heroes of today, Errol Flynn smiles and laughs as he duels with the evil Sir Guy! Witty, humorous, charming and delightful. Action scenes are marvelously choreographed. The colors are brilliant and the action is fun (as opposed to being a showcase for special effects where blood splatters "realistically"). Ah, the good old days!

I'm sure if you have an HD DVD player this DVD would be fine, but I ordered it not realizing that it was specifically for HD machines, a
mistake that could have been easily avoided if that was stated clearly
in the description of the product.
I did find the DVD for regular machines but it's twice as much! Oh well, I'm ordering it anyway, cause I absolutely love this version of Robinhood!
