This is another movie I put on because I was bored but got sucked into it from the opening scene. I agree Jackman did a great job in the role.

It's not a movie I'd recommend to the average person, as I'd call this Robin not quite a villain, but also not quite an anti-hero, but there have been some friends I've recommended this to.

Honestly, Little John was the character I was most conflicted about, because a lot of the unnecessary violence in this tale was centered around his actions, so it's the most fleshed out bit we really got to see/hear directly. It makes perfect sense why he does what he does, but we also see the people he did it to did not deserve what happens. Robin at least admits most of his life was wrong, but a good number did deserve (according to him) what they got, keeping the story from erasing all his anti-hero bits.
