Screen sensation and Academy Award-winner Kevin Costner ("The Bodyguard," "Dances With Wolves") is the legendary swashbuckling hero of England's Sherwood Forest who defends the poor and battles Alan Rickman's ("Die Hard") deliciously evil Sheriff of Nottingham. Academy Award-nominee Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio ("The Color of Money," "Scarface") is Robin's fair damsel in distress, and Academy Award-winner Morgan Freeman ("Million Dollar Baby," "Driving Miss Daisy"), Emmy-winner Alan Rickman ("Sense and Sensibility," "Die Hard") and Christian Slater ("Broken Arrow," "Interview with the Vampire") round out the all-star cast in this pumped-up version of the classic adventure tale!

On the whole, this is not the greatest movie that's been made surrounding the Robin Hood mythos. What it is though is a rip-rollicking adventure despite its flaws that's hard not to enjoy. It has one of the best soundtracks of my childhood (forget about the doofy love ballad) and endless crowd-pleaser moments. Super fun.

A little cheesy (it's an American actor portraying an English legend). But in my opinion it's still the best movie version of the Robin Hood legend. None of the others have managed to capture the heart, humor and charm of the character. Also I grew up watching this so it's nostalgic.

With the loss of our beloved Alan, I have come back to watch him as the evil Sheriff. This is true gold and a classic Robin Hood movie.
