This really is a Robin of Locksley for the "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" generation. |

For the willing, it's still a story worth hearing. [2 Mar 2007, p.64] |

If there is a chink to this series' armor, it is in the casting of Armstrong in the title role. |

San Jose Mercury News/Contra Costa Times Charlie McCollum
You'll get hooked on it early and should stick around to the very end -- even though you have a good idea of what's coming. |

Los Angeles Times Robert Lloyd
"Robin Hood" boasts most of the usual problems with low-budget epics.... But the show has wit and energy. |

The New York Times Ginia Bellafante
Briskly paced and amusingly corny. |

People Weekly Tom Gliatto
I wish the show had a little more verisimilitude--the peasants' homes look cheap, not poor--but it's zippy mindless fun. [5 Mar 2007, p.37] |

Variety Brian Lowry
If this attempt to put a youthful spin on Robin Hood isn't bad per se, it's at best a warmed-over remake that would be diverting for kids if it wasn't occasionally quite violent. |
