Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991)

Cast: Kevin Costner (Robin of Locksley), Morgan Freeman (Azeem), Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio (Marian Dubois), Christian Slater (Will Scarlett), Alan Rickman (Sheriff of Nottingham)
For complete cast info, see IMDb's Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves page.

I've always liked the story of a man who robbed from the rich and gave to the poor and although it's definitely overly romantic and a bit too sappy, this is my favorite telling of the story so far. I've never been a Kevin Costner fan, but I enjoy this movie in spite of him. The costumes, sets, music, story, cast, etc. are wonderful and the fantasy is fully realized in this romantic drama with some great comic moments thrown in for good measure.

Robin Hood and his Maid Marian have been one of my favorite love stories and this telling of the story really captures the love and romance along with the adventure of getting there.

Grade: A-
