is a 2010
action film
[5]
[6]
based on the
Robin Hood legend
, directed by
Ridley Scott
and starring
Russell Crowe
,
Cate Blanchett
,
William Hurt
,
Mark Strong
,
Mark Addy
,
Oscar Isaac
,
Danny Huston
,
Eileen Atkins
, and
Max von Sydow
.
Development began on the project in January 2007 with
Universal Pictures
' purchase of a spec script by
Ethan Reiff and Cyrus Voris
which would see the film focus on a more prominent and sympathetic
Sheriff of Nottingham
. Casting Crowe in the title role, Ridley Scott was hired to direct later that same year. Rewrites delayed the film throughout 2008, with
Brian Helgeland
hired to rewrite the screenplay, which saw a refocus of the story to be about Robin Hood once again, abandoning the Nottingham angle entirely. Filming commenced in March 2009 throughout
England
and
Wales
.
Robin Hood
held its world premiere at the
2010 Cannes Film Festival
the same day as its
United Kingdom
and
Ireland
releases. It was then released on 14 May 2010 in
North America
. The film received mixed reviews and grossed $321.7 million worldwide.
Plot
[
edit
]
In 1199 AD,
Robin Longstride
serves as a common
archer
in the army of
King Richard the Lionheart
. A veteran of
Richard's crusade
, he now takes part in the siege of
Chalus Castle
. Disillusioned and war-weary, he gives a frank but unflattering appraisal of the King's conduct when the King asks for it, and Robin and his comrades?archers
Allan A'Dayle
and
Will Scarlett
and soldier
Little John
?are locked in the
stocks
.
After the King is killed during an attack on the castle, Robin and his comrades manage to free themselves and desert. They come across an ambush of the English royal guard by Godfrey, an English knight who has conspired with
King Philip of France
to assassinate King Richard. After chasing Godfrey away, Robin and his Merry Men take advantage of the situation by impersonating the dead English knights to return to England. Before they depart to sail across the Channel, he promises a dying knight, Sir Robert Loxley, to return his sword to his father in
Nottingham
.
Awaking to find their ship arrived in the Thames estuary, Robin must continue to assume the identity of Loxley to inform the royal family of King Richard's death. He witnesses the coronation of
King John
, who orders the collection of harsh new taxes.
William Marshal
, the
Lord Chancellor
since the days of John's
father
, opposes the new taxes and is relieved of his position by John. The new king dispatches Godfrey to the
North
to collect the taxes?unaware that Godfrey will instead use French troops to stir up unrest and prepare for King Philip to invade England. In secret, spies working for Marshal follow Godfrey's men and learn of the planned invasion of England.
Robin and his companions head to Nottingham, where Loxley's elderly and blind father, Sir Walter, asks him to continue impersonating his son to prevent the Crown from seizing the Loxley family lands. Loxley's widow,
Lady Marian
, is initially cold toward Robin, but warms to him when he and his men recover grain for the townsfolk to plant.
Godfrey's actions incite the northern barons, who march to meet King John. Speaking now for Sir Walter, Robin proposes that King John agree to a
charter of rights
to ensure the rights of every Englishman and to unite his country. Realising Godfrey's deception, and knowing he must meet the French invasion with an army, the King agrees. Meanwhile, French marauders plunder Nottingham. Robin and the northern barons arrive to stop Godfrey's men, but not before Godfrey has slain the blind Sir Walter.
As the main French expeditionary force begins its invasion of England on a beach below the
cliffs of Dover
, Robin leads the now united English army against them. In the midst of the battle, Robin duels with Godfrey, who attempts to kill Marian and flees until Robin finally kills him with an arrow from afar. King Philip realises that his plan to divide England has failed and calls off his invasion. When King John sees the French surrendering to Robin instead of to himself, he senses a threat to his power.
In London, King John reneges on his promise to sign the charter and declares Robin an
outlaw
to be hunted throughout the kingdom. The
Sheriff of Nottingham
announces the decree, and Robin and his men flee to
Sherwood Forest
with the orphans of Nottingham. Marian narrates their new life in the greenwood, noting that they live in equality as they right the many wrongs in the kingdom of King John.

Development and pre-production
[
edit
]
In January 2007,
Universal Studios
and
Brian Grazer
's
Imagine Entertainment
acquired a
spec script
written by Ethan Reiff and Cyrus Voris, creators of the TV series
Sleeper Cell
. Their script portrayed a more sympathetic
Sheriff of Nottingham
and less virtuous
Robin Hood
, who becomes involved in a love triangle with
Lady Marian
. The writers received a seven-figure deal for the purchase.
[7]
The following April,
Ridley Scott
was hired to direct the film, with
Sam Raimi
and
Bryan Singer
also considered for the position.
[8]
[9]
Scott had attempted to get rights for himself and
20th Century Fox
, but had previously collaborated with Grazer on
American Gangster
and signed on as director rather than a producer.
[10]
Scott claimed two previous film adaptations of Robin Hood:
The Adventures of Robin Hood
(1938) and
Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves
(1991) had failed to hit the target, saying "the best, frankly, was
Mel Brooks
's
Men in Tights
(1993), because
Cary Elwes
was quite a comic".
[11]
Scott's dissatisfaction with the script led him to delay filming, and during 2008 it was rewritten into a story about Robin Hood becoming an outlaw; at one point Crowe was even being considered for a dual role as both Robin and the Sheriff. Scott dropped the latter notion and
Nottingham
was retitled to reflect the more traditional angle. In June, screenwriter
Brian Helgeland
was hired to rewrite the script by Reiff and Voris.
[12]
Producer Marc Shmuger explained Scott had a different interpretation of the story from "the script, [which] had the sheriff of Nottingham as a
CSI
-style forensics investigator".
[10]
Scott elaborated the script, portraying the Sheriff of Nottingham as being
Richard the Lionheart
's right-hand man, who returns to England to serve
Prince John
after Richard's assassination. Though Scott felt John "was actually pretty smart, he got a bad rap because he introduced taxation so he's the bad guy in this", and the Sheriff would have been torn between the "two wrongs" of a corrupt king and an outlaw inciting anarchy.
[13]
Locations were sought in North East England including
Alnwick Castle
,
Bamburgh Castle
and
Kielder Forest
. A portion of filming was intended to take place in
Northumberland
. As a result of the
WGA strike
, production was put on hold.
[14]
Filming was scheduled to begin in August in
Sherwood Forest
if the
2008 Screen Actors Guild strike
did not take place,
[15]
for release on 26 November 2009. By July, filming was delayed,
[16]
and playwright Paul Webb was hired to rewrite the script.
[10]
The film was moved to 2010.
[17]
The Sheriff of Nottingham's character was then merged with Robin.
[18]
Scott describes the identity of Robin, "In the context of the story he starts off as one thing, becomes the guise of another and then has to retire to the forest to resume his name Robin, so he was momentarily the Sheriff of Nottingham."
[19]
Helgeland returned to rewrite, adding an opening where Robin witnesses the Sheriff dying in battle, and takes over his identity.
[20]
Scott chose to begin filming in February 2009 in forests around London, having discovered many trees which had not been
pollarded
.
[11]
By February 2009, Scott revealed
Nottingham
had become his version of
Robin Hood
, as he had become dissatisfied with the idea of Robin starting as the Sheriff.
[21]
Casting
[
edit
]
Russell Crowe
was cast into the role of Robin Hood in January 2007, with a fee of $20 million against 20% of the gross.
[7]
The next addition to the cast was
Mark Strong
. When interviewed about his role, Strong stated his character of Sir Godfrey was originally called Conrad and was based on
Guy of Gisbourne
. He described the original character as having blond hair and being disfigured from being struck by a crossbow bolt.
[22]
In February 2009,
Cate Blanchett
was cast to play
Maid Marion
, replacing
Sienna Miller
who was previously cast, but exited in late 2008 as due to rewrites in the script, she was now considered too young for the role.
[23]
[24]
Rachel Weisz
and
Kate Winslet
were considered for the role prior to Blanchett signing on.
[25]
Prior to the start of filming in March,
Kevin Durand
,
Scott Grimes
and
Alan Doyle
were cast to portray
Little John
,
Will Scarlet
and
Allan A'Dayle
, respectively, with
Vanessa Redgrave
as
Eleanor of Aquitane
,
Oscar Isaac
as
Prince John
and
Lea Seydoux
as
Isabella of Angouleme
.
[26]
[27]
Redgrave withdrew from the film following the death of her daughter
Natasha Richardson
, replaced with
Eileen Atkins
.
[28]
The castings of
William Hurt
and
Matthew Macfadyen
were announced in April, with Macfadyen portraying the Sheriff.
[29]
[30]
Danny Huston
joined in July as
King Richard
, a role
Rhys Ifans
was initially in line for.
[31]
[32]
Filming
[
edit
]
Filming began on 30 March 2009.
[33]
In June and July, the crew filmed at
Freshwater West
beach, in
Pembrokeshire
, Wales.
[34]
The arrival of the dead king's cog (boat), accompanied by Robin and his men, at the Tower of London was filmed at Virginia Water, where a partial mock-up of the Tower was built. Extensive scenes from the film were filmed on the
Ashridge Estate
,
Little Gaddesden
, on the
Hertfordshire
/
Buckinghamshire
border.
[35]
Filming of the siege of
Castle Chalus
took place at the
Bourne Wood
at
Farnham
, Surrey during July and August.
[36]
Filming also took place at
Dovedale
near
Ashbourne, Derbyshire
.
[37]
On July 31, thieves broke into the props building at night and stole cameras that were being used for the film.
[38]
The
battering ram
used during the filming at the Bourne Wood in Surrey, which was nicknamed 'Rosie' by the film crew and is worth
£
60,000, was donated by Russell Crowe to a
Scottish
charity, the
Clanranald Trust
to be used for battle re-enactments at a fort named
Duncarron
, built in a forest near the
Carron Valley Reservoir
in
North Lanarkshire
.
[39]
One of the horses used in the film was named George, and was ridden by Crowe. This was the same horse that Crowe rode during the filming of
Gladiator
.
[40]
During the shoot, Crowe fractured both of his legs doing a scene in which he "jumped off a castle portcullis onto rock-hard uneven ground" and said he "never discussed the injury with production, never took a day off because of it, I just kept going to work", only learning about the injury from an
X-ray
a decade later.
[41]
Soundtrack
[
edit

The soundtrack to
Robin Hood
, with music written and performed by
Marc Streitenfeld
, was released on 11 May 2010.

Release
[
edit
]
Robin Hood
held its world premiere at the
2010 Cannes Film Festival
the same day as its
United Kingdom
and
Ireland
releases. It was then released on 14 May 2010 in
North America
.
[44]
The film premiered in
Japan
on 10 December 2010.
[45]
Home media
[
edit
]
Robin Hood
was released on
DVD
and
Blu-ray Disc
on 20 September 2010 in the UK,
[46]
and the following day in the US.
[47]
While the UK home media releases only consisted of the extended 'Director's Cut' version (15 additional minutes), the US DVD and Blu-ray Discs consisted of both the 'Director's Cut' version and the shorter theatrical version.
[48]
In the version released on
Netflix
, the final title card reading "And so the legend begins" was removed, leaving a blank canvas in its place.
Reception
[
edit
]
Box office
[
edit
]
On its opening week, the film took in £5,750,332 in the UK, ahead of
Iron Man 2
, and $36,063,385 in the US and Canada.
[49]
It grossed a total of £15,381,416 in the UK, $105.2 million in North America and $321,669,741 worldwide.
[50]
The box-office figures were seen as somewhat of a disappointment, although Brandon Gray of
Box Office Mojo
thought the take was unfairly maligned. Gray wrote that the film was among the highest grossing medieval-period films of all time, and that the true financial issue was the production going over budget rather than returns being particularly beneath expectations.
[51]
Critical reception
[
edit
]
On review aggregate website
Rotten Tomatoes
the film holds an approval rating of 43% based on 251 reviews, with an average rating of 5.4/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "Ridley Scott's revisionist take on this oft-told tale offers some fine acting and a few gripping action sequences, but it's missing the thrill of adventure that made Robin Hood a legend in the first place."
[52]
Metacritic
assigned the film a weighted average score of 53 out of 100, based on 40 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".
[53]
Audiences polled by
CinemaScore
gave the film an average grade of "B?" on an A+ to F scale.
[54]
Roger Ebert
of the
Chicago Sun-Times
gave the film two stars out of four, writing that "little by little, title by title, innocence and joy is being drained out of the movies."
[55]
Joe Neumaier of the
New York Daily News
felt that "the problem with Russell Crowe's new take on the legend is that it has one muddy boot in history and the other in fantasy. The middling result is far from a bull's-eye."
[56]
David Roark of
Relevant
accused Scott of replacing depth with detail and manipulative themes, like vengeance and unjust war, and stated that Scott had sucked the life out of a cherished fable, writing that "Scott has turned a myth, a concept essentially, into a history which emerges as dry, insensible clutter."
[57]
Anthony Lane
, writing for
The New Yorker
, found the film "dour and dun", and was critical of Crowe's performance, stating "His Robin, however, seems pathologically glum; even when leading a cavalry charge on a white steed, he cuts a lonesome figure, marooned in his own feuds and ruminations".
[58]
Owen Gleiberman
of
Entertainment Weekly
was critical of the film not holding any traits of the Robin Hood myth, and said of Scott's direction and Crowe's performance "Scott and Crowe made a great movie out of
Gladiator
, tapping deep into the showbiz masculine bravura of ancient-world Hollywood spectaculars. In Robin Hood, Scott tries to go deep again, but in a misguided way?he thinks he's making a pop-medieval
Saving Private Robin
. The battles are grainy and "existential," but what they aren't is thrilling. They're surging crowd scenes with streams of arrows and flecks of blood, and Crowe, slashing his way through them, is a glorified extra. He's so grimly possessed with purpose that he's a bore, and so is the movie."
[59]
Among the film's more positive reviews,
Mick LaSalle
of the
San Francisco Chronicle
wrote that "Scott has great command of his action sequences" and praised his "sophisticated approach to the material."
[60]
Ty Burr
of
The Boston Globe
called the film "smart, muscular entertainment" and wrote that Crowe "possesses a presence and authority to make you forget all about
Kevin Costner
."
[61]
Though he noted that the film downplayed several characters, Kirk Honeycutt of
The Hollywood Reporter
was complimentary of the film, praising
John Mathieson
's cinematography and
Marc Streitenfeld
's musical score.
[62]
Russell Crowe received criticism from the British media for his variable accent during the film.
Empire
said his accent was occasionally Scottish,
[63]
while
Total Film
thought there were also times when it sounded Irish.
[64]
Mark Lawson
, while interviewing Crowe on
BBC Radio 4
, suggested there were hints of Irish in his accent, which angered Crowe who described this as "bollocks" and stormed out.
[65]
[66]
A number of reviewers have criticised historical inaccuracies in the film. In
The New York Times
,
A. O. Scott
complained that the film made "a hash of the historical record".
[67]
In
The Guardian
,
Alex von Tunzelmann
complained that the film was filled with historical impossibilities and anachronisms. She notes that Richard the Lionheart was indeed fighting in France in 1199, but that he had actually come back from the Holy Land seven years earlier, so it is inaccurate to depict him fighting in France on his way back from the Holy Land in 1199, as is the case in the film.
[68]
Accolades
[
edit
]
Potential sequels
[
edit
]
Scott indicated he had been considering further films, in an interview with
The Times
on 4 April 2010, stating, "Honestly, I thought why not have the potential for a sequel?"
[76]
and "Let's say we might presume there's a sequel.

I am trying to think of the last good one," said Scott. "Errol Flynn? A bit cheesy? A big cheese. God bless him. Kevin Costner? In the wig, you mean? The one I thought was the best, frankly, was Mel Brooks's Men in Tights, because Cary Elwes [who played Robin] was quite a comic.
