	Author	Review
United States	Todd McCarthy The Hollywood Reporter	"It's turned out even worse than anyone could have imagined (...) In a just world, everyone involved in this mess would be required to perform some sort of public penance."	NEG
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"The latest take on the outlaw legend is a Thanksgiving turkey that doesn’t deserve a pardon (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"[It] is not so much stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, as stealing from Guy Ritchie, Batman, Two-Face and a few others – and not giving back all that much to the audience (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Glenn Kenny The New York Times	"The plot is twisty in a perfunctory way, the action predictably explosive, the sought-after exhilaration nonexistent."	NEG
United States	Owen Gleiberman Variety	"It's more honest fun than the Kevin Costner or Russell Crowe versions (...) The presence of an actress like Hewson is one reason you actually want to see it"	POS
United Kingdom	Tim Robey Telegraph	"There's nothing merry about this ugly, monotonous Guy Ritchie rip-off (...) [It] barely has a single thing to recommend it (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	Maureen Lee Lenker Entertainment Weekly	"A humorless heist movie with no heart (...) 'Robin Hood' aims its arrow at contemporary action and relevancy only to miss the mark entirely"	NEG
United Kingdom	Dan Jolin Empire	"For all its stylistic ambition, and its efforts to reference modern concerns (...) 'Robin Hood' misfires thanks to a crucial absence of internal logic (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United States	David Ehrlich IndieWire	"The film isn’t smart enough to recognize that its convictions are dumb, and it doesn’t have the goods to back them up in the first place."	NEG
United States	Scott Mendelson Forbes	"'Robin Hood' is both utterly unnecessary and entirely painless (...) It’s not a good movie (...) It’s fine in that it’s well-shot and mostly well-staged, with lust production values"	NEU
United States	A.A. Dowd AV Club	"[A] dumb and generic spectacle (...) Every medieval warrior here boasts perfectly trimmed facial hair and salon-quality ’dos."	NEG
United States	William Bibbiani IGN	"It’s a straightforward retelling with a confusing design philosophy, disappointing action sequences, weak storytelling and a cast which clearly deserved better material."	NEG
Canada	Molly Freeman Screen Rant	"'Robin Hood' modernizes the classic story with some new ideas that don't always work, but the tale of an outlaw hero is buoyed by Taron Egerton's charm."	NEU
