Robin Hood - Men in Tights

Had to replace an older copy

Not the best Mel Brooks comedy but this movie has grown on me over the years. I am a big Mel Brooks fanYoung Frankenstein, spaceballs, history of the world….. the list goes on. There are parts of this movie that stand the test of time like the kings mole that moves around or the Great cameos of other stars. A good movie to curl up after a tough week at work and just laugh at the silliness and forget your worries

I love this movie so much. It is hilarious.

Despite having to explain the random 90s jokes that went right over my teen’s head, we were both laughing throughout the entire movie. I hadn’t seen in in at least a decade and I forgot how many jokes came from this movie. Great cameos, hysterical script. I’m glad we watched it together, it was a great hang in the house night together.

Brand new

This movie always makes me laugh. When cable goes out, which it does frequently, I turn to DVD's, andreally enjoy this one.

Mel Brooks created another comedic masterpiece. I enjoy "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" and this spoof on that movie is just great. The writing is just perfect.

I must be getting old. If you are old enough to remember ever seeing this movie I suggest you get it and watch it.

I remember as a kid back in the 1990s that this film was really funny. As an Adult it shows how bad the film is.It's cheap unfunny kind of comedy. It's suppose to made in England but it obviously made in California.Just a stupid dum film really now. Not funny at all.I'd recommend Scary Movie 4, for me that was the best in the franchise.

There was nothing to like. I m deaf, my father for whom we bought it is also very deaf and there were no subtitles. I think the producers need raking over the coals about this as this means deaf people can't get access. I have seen this film before, with subtitles, so why does this new dvd not have the subtitles?

This movie for any Robin Hood collector is a must. You usuaully find all the drama in the Robin Hood flicks but if it is laughter you are looking for this is the one for you. I have all the Robin Hood movie's and there is just one line in this movie that makes it all worth the buying and sooo very true..." Unlike some Robin Hood's , I can speak with an English accent" LOL. And that is sooo true most movies like the one with Kevin Costner in them, the actors have no ENGLISH accent. Being an American doesn't make a difference one way or another because I am one BUT considering Robin Hood was ENGLISH it does make this movie all the funnier , if not only for this line. Again Mel Brooks pulls off a great spoof , so if ya are one of his fans, this movie is a must.

As inferred by the title of my review - i saw 'Robin Hood: Men in Tights' well before i saw 'robin Hood: Prince of Thieves' to which the film gives much more than a passing nod. In fact it would be over ten years before I would see that film... and in all that time I still thought the film was a great comedic take on the Robin Hood legend, and indeed film history of that particular mythos.When I eventually got round to seeing RH:PoT however, the film took itself to a new level - i spotted more jokes, and more events which caused me to laugh until i was ready to cry.Starring Cary Elwes (the Princess Bride, Saw, Hot Shots, Days of Thunder) and Amy Yasbeck (Wings, Problem Child)the story of Robin, returning from the crusades in Jerusalem to find his family home plundered by the Sherriff, we folw him on his quest to regain his lost home, name and lady, Marian.If you've seen and enjoyed previous Mel Brooks films then this is another one to add to the list of classic comedic parodies from the brains beind Spaceballs and Blazing Saddles. If you haven't then this is a great one to get started with - family friendly, and fun - most kids will be familiar with Robin Hood, and jokes for the grown ups too!

In the pantheon of spoofs, this always seems to get missed out. And that's a shame, because it's genuinely funny. The humour is a little subtle in places, though in others it will come out and smack you in the chops. And there are quite a few references to other films, either of the same period (like a gentle dig or two at Robin Hood - Prince of Thieves for example) or of the same genre (I'll let you spot them) which always amuse me.It's a great film and everyone seemed to be having fun making it, which makes it fun to watch.
