    Occasional belly laughs from good gags, but not as good as I remember from my younger years. I don't find Elwes as amusing and suave here as in The Princess Bride. He is too exaggerated. I realized during this new viewing of the movie that it hardly mentions and never shows Ro...( read more)bin Hood stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. And it is disappointing that Chappelle isn't given as large a role as Freeman from the movie they are spoofing or Little from Blazing Saddles who had Richard Pryor backing him as a writer. Lewis and Rees only earn a couple laughs. They are ineffective as villains even for a comedy of this sort. Ullman gets the best one liners, but she said in a special feature interview that she was allowed to improvise, so many of them are probably her own creation and not from the script. Men in Tights is still a fun song.

    Not great, Mel Brooks never really recovered!

    It had its funny parts, but it was pretty dumb overall.

    There are afew scenes here that raise a smile but generally this is a poor spoof. Elwes is pretty good at ripping of Errol Flynn and Lewis is great as prince john but thats about it. Ranges from laugh out loud moments to utter embarassing rubbish.
