Russell Crowe is a better at this type of movie than Kevin Costner but they both don't really seem to fit the role. Like I said, this movie works as a medieval action adventure, and I know it's suppose to be the pre-adventures of Robin Hood but it's not a Robin Hood movie. Like LSB said before no one has come close to Errol Flynn's Robin Hood, Cary Elwes could've but the whole movie was a parody so, obviously it can't be taken seriously. Hell... Cary Elwes as the Dread Pirate Robert is a better Robin Hood than Russel Crowe.
