    Smug but likeable rich bloke Robin of Locksley returns from the Crusades to find his lands confiscated and his girlfriend has set up home with Will Scarlet. Nottingham residents are pressganged into near-slavery in the local mines, and Robin is persuaded by black Muslim Little John to act the rich playboy to get into the Sheriff's inner circle while simultaneously acting as a masked vigilante.

    This new version of Robin Hood works to put a modern spin on a quasi-Batman version of the old tale. It was worth attempting this, but it doesn't wholly succeed. In fact, to read IMDB comments, it has attracted an awful lot of people who regard it as the Worst. Film. Ever. It isn't, of course - far from it in fact, unless you've only ever seen half a dozen films - but much of what it tries doesn't really work.

    Mediaeval Nottingham has a really interesting look, but that look isn't remotely like mediaeval Nottingham. The costumes are interesting, but not convincing - you can also say that for the story and script. The action is mostly effective, with some nice archery effects.

    Taron Egerton coasts on his likeable everyman persona. Ben Mendelsohn's Sheriff is mostly oily urbanity, but turns on a sixpence into a screaming harridan who makes Alan Rickman's Sheriff a model of restraint. Jamie Dornan has a thankless role as Will Scarlet, and the extravagantly talented Tim Minchin, as Friar Tuck, is simply odd. And I've never liked Jamie Foxx: his angry and strangely conceived Little John hasn't made me suddenly start to.
