Robin Hood 2018

Did I just watch a 2-hour episode of CW's Arrow?
....are you sure?
I love a good bad action movie, but there was some aspects of this that were really just distractingly bad. Like the costumes. Who designed these costumes? It's a weird mix of Forever 21 and late '90s Hot Topic, with some genuine rags-as-clothes for the unnamed peasants. I <3 Taron Egerton, and he held the role well -- super charming, great in an action role, &c. I just couldn't get over being thrown out of the movie time and time again by the...well, the distractingly bad stuff that I mentioned earlier. We're supposed to believe that no one knows who Hood is, even though this lord just came back from war and is regularly seen around town with the same guy who is traipsing around with Hood? Who just so happens to be a POC in medieval England with facial brandings? Oh okay.
