This movie holds up through multiple viewings. It's one of a very few (recent movies) concerning the Crusades, which is an interesting era of history. It was a nice balance of both sides of the conflict.

As such, it touches all the key points - Robin of Locksley, the Crusades, Marian, the sheriff of Nottingham - while also attempting to be more inclusive (John is now a Moor, for example) than that legend.
I'm also not sure about some of the set design or costumes, and Ben Mendehlson (the sheriff) is no Alan Rickman!
