Summary: Very good
Review: A nice continuation of the Robin Hood mythos. An action packed family film.One laughable thing though. In the movie Gwyn cuts her hair and pretends to be a boy. Everyone believes it. Pretty funny considering she's a rather beautiful young lady. No way you could mistake her for a boy.

Summary: Definately a 3.5 star item, but let's give it 4 for fun
Review: Cruelly drubbed by many reviewers for folklore inaccuracies (Robin Hood's daughter is of noble blood etc), blatent historical inaccuracies (revealed in the final reel) and the Disney-fied vision of medieval life. This movie (originally made for television) is actually well worth a look and really not all that bad if taken for what it is (a fantasy re-imagining of the what if the good hearted English outlaw Robin Hood had a daughter who followed in her fathers footsteps). With some great acting - especially from Malcolm McDowell as the dastardly Sheriff of Nottingham and rising Hollywood star Keira (King Arthur, Pirates of the Caribbean) Knightley as the title character Gwyn.
Revolving around the attempts of Robin Hood (and subsequently Gwyn) to safely transport King Richards illegitimate son Phillip to London in an effort to thwart Prince John's designs on the English throne. The movie has enough action to keep the young ones happy and enough drama and romance to make it a diverting picture for the adults.
Kudos also to director Peter Hewitt for providing a light commentary on this DVD.

Summary: Entirely entertaining
Review: Cute, but not stunning... I enjoy most of the Robin Hood genre, regardless of how far fetched, so I found this enjoyable too. Nice story, although Robin is portrayed as more of an arrogant, but unlucky nitwit. The never before heard from, Gwyn, is very well played and the story is entirely enjoyable; however, the sword play is unconvincing to say the least. A good tale, with a historically questionable theme, but it's Robin Hood-esque so there aren't a lot on constraints. I would have liked a different ending, but the one portrayed probably comes closer to what the ethics and constraints of times would have actually supported.

Summary: Good family entertainment.
Review: From grandma to kids everyone at our house liked this movie. A light hearted portrayal of Gwyn, Robin and Marian's daughter. She been raised and protected for years by her uncle and other friends of the prince of thieves. While her father is away, this "princess" is busy learning the arts of the forest and following in her fathers foot steps more than she might like to admit. This is a pretty clean film. There are no language concerns to think of. Gwyn has a friend that has a special crush on her. He's more like a brother , but dreams that Gwyn might somehow see him for more than he is. Gwyn and Phillip develop a love interest, but there is nothing distasteful about their relationship. The movie offers some very good discussion points and lessons on honor, respect, loyalty, friendship, and obedience. In the end, good prevails and the loving relationship between father and daughter is restored and made stronger. A good film for a family movie night.

Summary: watch this movie if you like kick-[bottom] girls
Review: gwyn is robin hood's daugher and, as her father's destiny before her, the fate of england lays in her hands. but she does great! I love her 'girls can do anything men can' attitude. my favorite part is when she meets the prince and tries to steal his horse. it's pretty cool. i didn't love the ending but it was such a good movie that i could overlook it. no one dies (other than the bad guys) but it was still a little anticlimatic and disappointing. watch this movie anyway!

Summary: The Legend Lives On!
Review: I have been a fan of Robin Hood ever since I could crawl. I have written many fiction stories where Robin Hood's daughter came and saved the day. Now, Disney has fulfilled my dream and the legend is reborn.
With the strength and cunning abilities of her father, and her mother's incredible beauty, Gwyn is the daughter of Robin Hood, the legendary "prince of theives." But instead of practicing archery and swordplay, she is being tutored by Friar Tuck and her best friend, Froderick. When her father returns home with his close companion, Will Scarlet, Gywn is ready to see her father that she has not seen in five years. But Robin and Will will not be staying long, for King Richard is dying and they must help his son, Prince Phillip, become king before the evil Prince John is crowned. To ensure he will be crowned, Prince John issues his guards to kill the prince, whom no one has ever seen. Gwyn insists on coming along to help, but when her father refuses and rides off one night with Will, Gwyn cuts her beautiful hair and dresses as a boy. She is not welcome when she arrives in town, but with the help of Froderick she will help her father if it kills her. But after Robin saves Gwyn from Prince John's guards, he insists that he will accompany her to the church where she is supposed to meet Froderick. Meanwhile, Prince Phillip's valet has been killed and the guards now know what the prince looks like. As Phillip is fleeing for France, Prince John's guards put a stop to the church visit by capturing Robin Hood and Will Scarlet, while Froderick and Gwyn are left to fend for themselves. As Froderick rides back home to ask for assistance, Gwyn stumbles into Prince Phillip, who passes himself off as the valet of the "deceased" prince. Now that the prince has been "killed," and Robin Hood and Will Scarlet have been sentenced to death, it is up to the "Princess of Thieves" to save the day. But with no experinece against her father's archenemies, is Gwyn up to the challenge?

Summary: and a half Very good but incorect
Review: I have to say that I really really really liked this movie but they've got an incorect fact. This fact is really important because it totally ruins the end of the movie. I would like to point out that Gwen is not a commoner becasue neither of her parents are commoners. Marian is of course of noble blood and might I point out was also the king's ward. Robin was Robin of Lockesly and Robin's father was Lord of Lockesly therefore making Robin Hood also a Lord. This would make Gwen of sufficient birthright to marry the prince or should I say king. Therefore the fact that they didn't marry would be totally incorect because there would be nothing to stop them from marrying and might I say that the commoners would probably approve of her above anyone else therefore making everyone happy. Besides this "small" incorect fact i really did enjoy the movie and I just wish that the movie had gotten it correct so I could have enjoyed it more. I do strongly recomend that you watch it however because it is very good and very well done.

Summary: surreal kidflicks with anachronistic feminist undertow
Review: I love the fact that this movie teaches girls to fight and argue for equality, although I wouldn't want to be the one to break it to them that it's impossible to walk through 13th century English woods for days while maintaining flawless mascara, eyeliner, lip gloss, perfect hair...and a slim millenium-era atkins body.

Summary: BEAUTIFUL KEIRA KNIGHTLY DESERVES TO BE A STAR!
Review: I saw the previews the other day for THE PIRATES OF THE CARIBEAN, and beside commenting on how Johnny Depp continues to play sleazier and sleazier characters, looking more and more unattractive in the process, my eyes came across a beautiful woman, whose character seems to be the main focus on this wretched-looking movie. Rather than announce the arrival of this soon-to-be starlet, who is breathtakingly beautiful, her name was jumbled in the credits. I looked up the name Keira Knightly later, and because of her looks (and the fact I have always liked "good" Disney movies and Robin Hood stories), I rented this hard to find DVD. What a treat! Besides the lead character's stunning appearance (what a joke that she could disguise herself as a boy, HA!), the movie is quite entertaining and done in the vain of quality, family movies of yesteryear. I HIGHLY recommend it, and I predict that Keira Knightly will become a star one day soon. She deserves it!
