I wrote this two days ago as a comment on Instapundit:
My one great fear: Is The Death of Robin Hood going to follow the same story beats as Logan? Older male figure, still a vicious killer, becomes like a father to a young woman before finally dying? Has Hugh Jackman gotten into a typecasting rut?
And just today, I saw this review of the movie, which also mentions Logan parallels:
My fears aside, I do want to see this movie, especially with Disclosure Day having proved to be a massive, stinking turd shat out by an old and clueless Spielberg. I'm not so keen to see the Gen Z flicks Backrooms and Obsession, but I might be persuaded to watch those later.
Is this just an updated "Robin and Marian" (starring Sean Connery & Audrey Hepburn)? Only with more violence.
ReplyDeleteI don't think the female lead, played by the much younger Jodie Comer, is meant to be Marian, but who knows?
