SmugKitZine Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting

Dorathen Better Late Then Never

natalija-vanagelyte I enjoyed watching this TV series when I was a child, as it was filmed in my home-country, near my home-town and even some of my friends were participating in filming mass scenes, like villagers etc. so every day I was waiting for new series to appear on TV with excitement. so it gives me nice memories and the scenery of series is beautiful as it is my Lithuania :) also the costumes and all set is done very professional. actors do their characters well for this kind of production. in general it is suitable to watch for teenagers and easy history interpretation lovers. The New Adventures of Robin Hood anyway is a must see for all fans of Robin Hood story itself; it is also enjoyable for family get together evenings and relaxed eves.

orderyourfuneral This series is one of the worst shows I have ever seen. Terrible acting, terrible effects, terrible writing, you get my drift. The stories are so far from the legend of Robin Hood it's amazing. Looks like they just wanted to use the name Robin Hood to attract an audience. It might as well have been called New Adventures of Mr. Bland Acting.Someone commented before me that if you had imagination, you'd love this show. That is a horrible approach to a TV-series. A visual media like this should spark your imagination, you shouldn't have to force your imagination into something to make it good. That would be like the Simpsons episode where they try to brainwash Homer with a religious propaganda movie, and he starts talking about who killed who or whatever. "If a movie is boring, I just make up my own story."In conclusion: Absolute human waste.

thornedbud The New Adventures of Robin Hood, known to the fans simply as NAoRH, is lack of publicity. To enjoy this show you need to at least like the legend of Robin Hood. After that you need to have an imagination, this is a fantasy show with a almost none existent budget. The special affects were literally cardboard cut-outs and tricks such as putting a sword to your side to make it look as if it went through you. If you have an imagination you can see past that and enjoy. One particular aspect of the show that made it so short lived was replacing Robin Hood. The original and by many considered the best Robin Hood after Errol Flynn was Matthew Porretta. He looked the part, and pulled off the terrible one liners in the scripts so that you HAD to like them. It also didn't hurt that he is gorgeous, has one hell of a voice and the most adorable smile in history. When he said he was Robin Hood you didn't feel the need to question it, you just believed. He was one of the few involved in the show that had talent, then they replace him with John Bradley, whose claim to fame is a bit part in Independence Day. He actually did that part well, but he made Robin Hood looked like a continually drunk, out of place and generally ignorant oaf. That change was very bad, where as the change in Marions was not quite so crushing. Their acting abilities were similar and they both portrayed the lady warrior as well as could be expected. Though it may be difficult to except a female fighter in the twelfth century, as woman I have to admit I enjoyed seeing a Marion that wasn't screaming and wringing her hands. The stories were interesting, but could have been done considerably better with a larger budget. They were good in the first two seasons then got so bad and half were stolen in the third season I got headaches. The first and second seasons are worth your time, but don't bother with the third unless your a John Bradley fan. As a huge fan of the Robin Hood legend, with a wild imagination and a woman with eyes I fell in love with the first two seasons of NAoRH.

"L" I have followed NAoRH ever since it started in the Netherlands. I do think it is great and I also think that Matthew plays a very good Robin Hood. The third season has started already and so by now the role of Robin Hood is played by John Bradley. I think Matthew was a better Robin Hood. But I'll give John a chance to prove himself to. I've always been a fan of Robin Hood stories. NAoRH is about the best Robin Hood story of them all. I'll keep on watching it.
