Far from the earth-shattering restoration we were promised in this BluRay edition, this is just another direct port to BluRay from DVD.

The audio is still mono, a major disappointment. Still a great movie, but Warner Brothers didn't deliver the BluRay product they promised.

Those of us with upconverting players will get quality every bit as good from the plain old DVD version. November 15, 2008

As opposed to the profane, dark, cruel anti-heroes of today, Errol Flynn smiles and laughs as he duels with the evil Sir Guy! Witty, humorous, charming and delightful. Action scenes are marvelously choreographed. The colors are brilliant and the action is fun (as opposed to being a showcase for special effects where blood splatters "realistically"). Ah, the good old days! November 12, 2008

I'm sure if you have an HD DVD player this DVD would be fine, but I ordered it not realizing that it was specifically for HD machines, a
mistake that could have been easily avoided if that was stated clearly
in the description of the product.

I did find the DVD for regular machines but it's twice as much! Oh well, I'm ordering it anyway, cause I absolutely love this version of Robinhood! November 3, 2008

Portuguese Language:
Se você quer comprar um clássico do cinema de aventura em alta definição este é o filme. A imagem está impecável - até por causa da fotografia em Technicolor - e a restauração ficou magnífica.
Só não ganhou 5 estrelas pois falta legendas em português. October 22, 2008
