Robin Hood – Men in Tights (1993)
Director: Mel Brooks
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
What took the director so long to get around to Robin Hood? A standard, camp, unapologetic Mel Brooks parody, with digs at Kevin Costner's Prince of Thieves and its multi-racial Merry Men, and an arsenal of throw-away gags. An impressive cast - Stewart, Hayes, Ullman - cannot unfortunately save the day.Author: NKe
