Favorite scene in the movie: Robin Hood

In Kevin Costner version, I liked Robin & Robin's brother scene. When Robin knew the boy is his brother, they hugged each other. I was impressed this scene. In Russel Crowe version, I liked fighting scene. That's because Robin was so cool. And at that time, Marian was fighting with them. She was not only beautiful but also very brave. I liked both of movies.

Robin Hood movie

I watched this movie for the first time. And I watched 2 virsion: Russel Crowe and Kevin Costner virsion. Both movie stories are different. So I was little confusion. I liked both movie.

First, I talk about Kevin Costner virsion. First, Robin was captured but he escaped with Aseem. Assem is very strong man. He escaped and he went to his catsle to meet his father. However, the catsle burned out and his father was dead. And one old man was here. He is Robin's father's attendant. He fighted with Ghum. Ghum is very bad man. He wanted to get marry with Marian. Marian is Robin's lover. I surprised scene was a witch who is very strange and scary woman was Ghum's mother. My favorite scene is Robin found that one boy is his brother. They huged each other, I was very impressed. Last scene: wedding scene is so good. Robin and Marian is best couple I think.

Next, I talk about Russel Crowe virsion. First, King Richard's die was very surprised for me. That's because, Kevin Costner's virsion, King Richard came Robin and Marian's wedding. And bad man was different too. Not Ghum. It's King Jon and French's King. My favorite scene was Robin kissed Marian. Marian had hasband, but he was killed. Then, sir Walter who is Marian's father let Robin to become Marian's hasband. They know each other more and more, they loved each other. Anyway, Russel Crowe was very cool!!lol
