Review of Robin Hood: Men in Tights (1993) by Brett H — 24 Jan 2016
Robin Hood: Men in Tights is a parody film directed by Mel Brooks and is based on the legend of Robin Hood. It didn't really made that many money, but it has a cult following for it, which after watching it, I can see why, but I wouldn't go out and say that it's as enjoyably funny as Mel Brook's previous parody films.
Cary Elwes is having a lot of fun in this, and is probably the perfect guy to play Robin Hood. The humor is mostly a hit, but then there are some running jokes that weren't that funny, although there hasn't been a joke that I start to groan at.
The villain is funny in it also, and the action scenes are entertaining to watch which they gave me some chuckles. So even though Robin Hood: Men In Tights isn't that much of a comedic classic as Blazing Saddles, Spaceballs, and Young Frankenstein, but I was still entertained by the film and just thought it was a good time.
