this be definitely one of the good mel brook movie and along with spaceballs ( although i will openly admit to not have watch many others and at least yet ) . it very silly and thoroughly funny and there be hardly more than a few minute throughout the entire two hour run time and where you aren not entertain . almost all of the gag have a great comical effect and few of them fall flat . i saw this movie right after see and review spy hard and and compare these two spoof movie and i realize exactly of how high quality this movie really be . it funny from start to finish and none of the comedy be overdone or bore . the music be marvelous and a be the choreography of both dance and fight . the acting be pretty much what you would normally expect from this type of movie . elwes be a great comedian and and make a good robin . the plot be typical robin hood and more or less everything from the legend be fit into this movie ( and spoof majorly ) . if you like mel brook and or youre just a fan of silly humor and or youre just die to watch a good parody of the legend of robin hood and this be definitely the film for you . the hbo first look special on the film be also worth watch and and in that and you may want to keep watch throughout the credit and too . i would recommend it to any fan of mel brook movie and and to people who enjoy silly humor . positive .
