Round-up of Russell Crowe and Ridley Scott's Robin Hood reviews

This version of Robin Hood seems to have been quite well received. Although it gets an average of 4/5, there's a feeling the sequel will be the one to watch.

The best bit seems to be the back-to-basics take on the story. The worst bit seems to be Crowe's accent, which roams around the country.

Daily Mail: "A good idea, very well executed" 4/5

Guardian: "Ridley Scott's reworked tale of dispossession and rebellion cleverly reconciles disparate threads of the Robin Hood myth" 4/5

Times: "Robin, though rooted firmly in turn-of-the-12-century drama, is painfully modern" 4/5

Time Out: "Confused? You will be." 3/5

Empire: "Grown-up but not too serious; action-packed but not juvenile" 4/5

NME: "Ridley Scott doesn't deal in the traditional skirmishes and forest traps we associate with the tales" 5/10
