Here is what people are saying about the The Adventures of Robin Hood (Two-Disc Special Edition)
5 Star Rating  "The ultimate original!"2009-10-07
- Reviewed By orbmagnet
Almost everybody knows the story of Robin Hood, and what he does for a living. He steals from the rich and gives to the poor, and he does a heck of a good job (unlike Dennis Moore). And so there are numerous movies that have been about this medieval legend. We have the animated Disney version, the 1991 Patrick Bergin version, the 1991 Kevin Costner version, the 1993 Mel Brooks parody, and most recently, the 2006 BBC series. Here, we have the 1938 Errol Flynn version. This is considered to be the greatest film adaptation, and it's not very hard to see why. It looks pretty outdated in today's world, but it's still something to look forward to. There are colorful costume designs, dazzling cinematography, and an impressive music score. But the real standouts here are Errol Flynn & Olivia de Havilland as Robin Hood & Maid Marian. The critics are correct: these two people give the greatest performances in this film and, in fact, the entire universe of Robin Hood films. This is the true Robin Hood: sly and charismatic. And this is the true Marian: kind, but troubled. Forget Kevin Costner's version. This is the ultimate film adaptation. Watch and enjoy it . . . and after that, watch the hysterical Mel Brooks version as well.

Grade: A
 
5 Star Rating  "A classic of cinema"2009-10-01
- Reviewed By User: A22MZ78ZVU9TK3
The picture quality is fantastic for a film that is over 70 years old, each frame is a joy to behold. The heart and warmth of this movie shines through, and even though the story is camp nonsense it is accomplished with a knowing affection that was produced by the best the Hollywood system had to offer. Modern, soulless American action movies aimed at the teen market, could well learn a thing or three about how to make a classic that can stand the test of time.

The Blu-ray disc also has a great many extras, many duplicated from the DVD Two-Disc Special Edition released a few years ago.

Buy this on Blu-ray to add a little class (and fun) to your collection.

I have started buying Errol Flynn movies. I was pleasantly suprised that this was a very good transfer with good sound and a great story. I would compare it to the Court Jester in quality.
 
5 Star Rating  "The greatest swash-buckler of all time."2009-09-03
- Reviewed By User: A1D1XCIQ6FTWTD
This is one of my favorite movies of all time. A little bit of that classic Hollywood Camp but still the greatest of the Flynn films. This is light years ahead of Kevin Costner's tale. Blu-Ray only makes it better. And, if you like this, get "They Died With Their Boots On." You will love it. The same cast in place in the story of George Armstrong Custer.
 
5 Star Rating  "The BEST so far (except for Maid Marion)"2009-08-16
- Reviewed By User: A1RJ0T90H2JB2X
A bit about the film: it's charming. It's colorful. It's greenwood. Robin's bow is Native American. And Robin really sums up the ideology of the English/Scottish ballads, of the type of the 'fair warrior' or 'hynde child' which Robin Hood is traditionally made out to be. I didn't enjoy Maid Marion as much, she was always wearing strange things and she would have looked better without the head covering.

The firstan weed that he drew on (weed-cloths)
It was o' the linen clear
The nextan weed that he drew on
It was a weed o' weir (war)

The nextan weed that he drew on
It was baith good iron and steel (both)
Twa gloves o plate, a golden helmet, (2)
became that hynde child weel (well)

Or:

He decked his men in Lincoln green
Himself in scarlet red
Fair of his chest then was it seen
When his silver arms were spread.

The 'Adventures of Robin Hood' is definitely (from my perspective at least) something which nobody should miss out on. (!!!) It inspired me at least, on my first watching some 3 to 4 years ago, to begin researching the Robin Hood legend in hopes of finding out how old he was, mostly due to a Welsh wren song I had just learned which went like this:

Ble'r ty myn, medda Dibbon wrth Dobbin
Ble'r ty myn, medda Ricart wrth Robin
Ble'r ty myn, medda Sion
Ble'r ty myn meddar nefar beyond.

'Where are you going, says Dibbon to Dobbin, Richard to Robin, Shaun, and the never beyond. Answer: I'm going to the woods to hunt the wren!

So I noticed there was a Robin and a Shaun (Little John) and that got me started on a long trail, which ultimately owes its inspiration to this film!

There's English versions too:
(Oh where are you going said Milder to Moulder
Oh we may not tell you said Festel to Fose
We're off to the woods said John the Red Nose
We're off to the woods said John the Red Nose) and they mention Robin too ...

One of the fun points from the film would be where Robin is caught and about to be hung, and he looks around him and sees all his friends ready in the crowd. That is from the original legend, but the story is usually preserved in Scottish songs, not English, so no idea where the moviemakers got it.

Another bit of fun is Robin's duel with Little John (great action there, but it ought to be sword, not quarterstaff) his sword-duel with Friar Tuck (which ought to be quarterstaff!) and his leaping from a tree before the bishops. (Very appropriate.) He's King of the Woods, completely.

If you get it, I'm going to bet you'll enjoy it! [...]
