Robin Hood

Waited for this movie for long time. Especially for Russel Crowe.
I was expecting some kind of Gladiator stuff in the movie. As the name suggests and what we have been hearing, reading and watching Robin Hood from childhood was not the same.
To bring forth a fact of my life that I got "Adventures of Robin Hood" as the lucky prize when I was in class II. It was a prized possession for me as it was the first time when I got a lucky prize and that too from a Television show.
So the expectation was very high and that too the character of Robin Hood was played by a marvelous actor, Russel Crowe.
The start of the movie was appropriate with a close up scene of an arrow buzzing out of a bow.
But after that I was eagerly waiting for more typical Robin Hood action. I waited ....I waited ....and I waited ....and Intermission .....then again .....I waited....I waited...I waited.....and The End....
And it was written "The start of a legend begins from here"...... So finally a great disappointment for a Robin Hood fan.
Well if you watch this movie without a pre-occupied notion then it's good.
There are good puns evenly spread across the movie. Dialogues are very well written. And when it comes to the acting part Russel Crowe can fetch you gold even from the cow dung. There is a character called Little John, he entertains very well even though his role is limited.
Cinematography is also admirable.
In a jist.... Its not a great movie but still one time enjoyable.
And I cant expect more in Rs 35 . My special thanx to Vodaphone :-)
