But what was it like?.....we all enjoyed it, however it was very quickly apparent that this was written to have a sequel, and that the true legend of Sherwood Forest starts in the next film. We got to see how Robin came home from the French wars and crusades. We saw John get the throne, and how useless he was as a King. We saw the way the country was divided into north and south, and how the poverty of England drove men to extreme methods of cruelty as well as survival. It was corny in places, true, and certainly the romance between Robin and Marion was completely understated and not really tantalising enough but it was watchable and a good boost for English morale!!! In the end we all love a story where good triumphs over evil; and this fits the bill. The 3 lads enjoyed it as it was an action spectacular at times, but we ladies would have liked a little more manliness shall we say?!!!!!
