Pros: Top notch acting by all concerned Cons: None
Errol Flynn IS Robin Hood, as Johnny Weissmueller IS Tarzan, as Sean Connery IS Bond, James Bond. Once these people played the roles, they were theirs forever. As long as there is celluloid, VHS, DVD, or other media, there will be a Robin Hood, and it ...
Pros: Flynn. Rains. de Havilland. Rathbone. Energy. Set-pieces. Technicolor. Korngold's score. Great DVD Cons: None
It seems odd now, but Errol Flynn was not Warner Brothers intended choice to play the title character in their seminal 1938 classic The Adventures of Robin Hood . Rather than having the dashing Tasmanian, studio executives originally wanted to ...
Pros: Exciting adventure/costume drama, exceptionally well made and paced, with numerous enjoyable performances and witty dialogue. Cons: Broad at times, with some overstated drama and silly slapstick.
I dunno: there’s something loveable about a man who whales smilingly on castle guards with a deer he’s flopped up on his shoulders. But, even more remarkably, Errol Flynn, as the hero of “The Adventures of Robin ...
Pros: costumes, sets, direction, cast, flair, action Cons: simplistic characters and story

I love Errol Flynn...To me he epitomizes the Swashbuckling hero with his roguish smile and dashing good looks. No matter how many times they make or re-make this classic tale, they will always be compared to this 1938 Errol Flynn classic. The on-screen...
Pros: Flynn and great supporting cast; production values Cons: oversimplistic plot situations

Pros: Very entertaining, great scenery, color, and costumes Cons: Sequence showing physical assault of a priest, as well as (almost) sexual assault
"The Adventures of Robin Hood", starring Errol Flynn, is easily one of the most enjoyable films ever created for family viewing. From start to finish, it proves to be full of rip-roaring, swashbuckling fun.
