"Go see it..."

"Go see it..."



Those were the exact words from my buddy ASM826 at Random Acts of Patriotism after he saw Robin Hood this weekend.

I will see it and will review it soon on Conservativeflix.

Have you seen it? What did you think?

Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (Warner Bros. 1991)

One of the greatest misconceptions about the story of Robin Hood is that "he stole from the rich and gave to the poor!" Well, that's only partly true...especially when you consider why the people were poor.

Government.

Therefore, Robin Hood was a great conservative story, and also a pretty good movie starring Kevin Costner, Morgan Freeman, Christian Slater, and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio.

After being captured by Turks during the Crusades, Robin of Locksley and a Moor, Azeem, escape back to England where Azeem vows to remain until he repays Robin for saving his life. Meanwhile, Robin's father has been murdered by the Sheriff of Nottingham and when Robin returns home he vows to avenge his father's death. Even though Marian, his childhood friend, cannot help him, he escapes to the Forest of Sherwood where he joins a band of exiled villagers and becomes their leader. With their help he attempts to cleanse the land of the evil that the Sheriff has spread.

Here is the trailer...
