Movie Reviews of Robin Hood - Men in Tights
Movie Review: Another Mel Brooks amazing comedy :-)
Summary: 5 Stars
You will absolutely split your sides with this movie. It's still one of my favourite spoofs. It's clever, witty and thoroughly enjoyable. Mel Brooks is a genius. He directed and co-wrote it.
With characters in here with names like Asneeze (Isaac Hayes) and Atchoo (David Chapelle), you know it's going to be funny. It loosely follows the story of Robin Hood but with more laughs. Richard Lewis is great in here. He plays the arrogant and whiny Prince John with a mole that is forever changing positions on his face. Mel also makes an appearance (Rabbi Tuckman) and in his short cameo, he does a great job.
This is definately one of Brooks' better movies. It is the kind that you can rewatch and still laugh and even pick up on things you might have missed the last time. This is definately well worth watching and I'm sure that you are bound to enjoy it. Especially if you are a Mel Brooks fan. I love it.
Movie Review: Mel's Finest
Summary: 5 Stars
My favorite Mel Brooks movie by a long shot. While almost all of them have moments of genius, and I'm sure people can argue endlessly for their favorite Brooks' movies, this one, for me, is the wittiest, looniest and most entertaining of them all. Unlike most of his movies, for instance, this one has no dead spots. It's laugh after laugh from start to finish. It's chock full of classic lines ("He's a smoothie," for instance by Richard Lewis; "It is good to be the king," by the king himself), classic scenes (Brooks as Rabbi Tuchman and Dom DeLuise impersonating Marlon Brando's godfather that will leave you gagging and gasping from laughing so hard) and visual jokes that go on forever. Plus, you get to see Dave Chapelle rap over the credits. I'll watch any Brooks movie over and over, but this one will get the most time at our house.Movie Review: Funny?? ... hah ... this movie is down right hilarious!!

It's about time!!!!! ... I have waited since the beginning of creation for this movie to come out on DVD ... Robin Hood - Men in Tights is great from beginning to end ... I really hope that the quality (transfer to DVD format) is upheld when September rolls around ... it is definitely good to be the king!! ... Go Captain Picard ... didn't get that kind of action shooting Star Trek now did you?? ... lucky dog! ... and the "magic mole" ... where will it appear next?? ... if this movie doesn't have you crying tears of laughter then get to the doctor quickly ... you could be dead ... or at least comatose :-) ... this movie is a must for any DVD collection ... especially if you are into the comedy genre ... THANK YOU DVD GODS!!Movie Review: Excellent Parody Of Robin Hood. Cary Elwes Was Spectacular. Supporting Cast-A Total Riot.
Summary: 5 Stars
I just finished viewing "Robin Hood: Men In Tights" for the first time and it was LAUGH OUT LOUD FUNNY. Cary Elwes ("Glory") does a fine job poking fun at time-honoured screen versions of the legendary archer from Sherwood Forest who stole from the rich to give to the poor (most notably Errol Flynn and Kevin Costner). The supporting cast was a total riot.
Should you prefer a serious take on the legend, view the 1939 classic starring Errol Flynn and Olivia DeHaviland or the 1991 adventure starring Kevin Costner and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio. Rated PG for comic violence.
Movie Review: Call a locksmith!
Summary: 5 Stars
I prepurchased this DVD because I'd been waiting so long for it to come out. (I still have my VHS version). I've loved this movie since the first time I saw it as a child. The great thing about it is every time you watch it you catch new jokes. Cary Elwes gives his best performance to date as the charming, witty Robin Hood who, "unlike some other Robin Hoods", can speak with an English accent. From start to finish this movie will have you laughing. Mel Brooks even makes an appearance as the flippant Rabbi Tuckman. This is not a movie to miss.
