Score: 70

from 3 reviewers

Review Date:

Ridley Scott's 'Robin Hood' on Blu-ray features excellent video, benchmark audio, and comprehensive extras, but the film itself is an ambitious yet unsatisfactory retelling.

Video: 65

Ridley Scott's 'Robin Hood' arrives on Blu-ray with a detailed 1080p/AVC MPEG-4 transfer in a 2.40:1 aspect ratio, showcasing splendid clarity, accurate colors, and superior black levels despite minor anomalies like occasional shimmer and inconsistent black strength in fire-lit scenes.

Audio: 82

Robin Hood's DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 mix delivers a superior, immersive experience with clear and coherent dialogue, robust LFE, and a dynamic range that handles everything from whispering scenes to intense battles. The soundtrack envelops listeners in medieval atmospherics and vivid spatial audio, perfect for showcasing any home theater setup.

Extra: 70

The Blu-ray of 'Robin Hood' is packed with a comprehensive set of extras including a detailed Picture-in-Picture Director’s Notebook, 13 minutes of deleted scenes, an extensive one-hour making-of documentary split into three informative sections, interactive art galleries, and a marketing archive of trailers and TV spots.

Movie: 50

Ridley Scott's 'Robin Hood' is an overly serious and historically muddled retelling, featuring high production values and notable performances from Russell Crowe and Cate Blanchett. However, it ultimately lacks the charm and excitement of earlier adaptations, burdened by bloated storytelling and unnecessary subplots.
