Expected more

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

this show was a favorite of mine as a child, but like many children i never got to see all episodes. i was so upset when it went off air and really wish that it would air again. i would still watch it, or even buy DVD/VHS of it! a year or so ago it did air on a french channel and i watched a few, but as a non-bilingual person i couldn't follow well. it went off air on that channel too. it actually had a great story line of a teen girl who had all the issues of a regular teen in her own time, but also had the added responsibility of saving her family from being wiped out of existence by an evil sorceress in the past. as the story continued you were gradually informed of the tale of woe that left robin and Marian trapped in a magic spell, unable to escape the sorceress Brendan and carry on the family line. as a result the family history was slowly being erased and it became a race against time to save herself and her ancestors from being wiped out of existence all together along with the tales of robin hood.

Although cheaply filmed, this was an okay show. Quite frankly, I liked it. The overall concept was presented well, the plots were usually funny, and the characters (or at least Robyn and a couple of the merry descendents) were likeable. I loved how Robyn was in a band back in her own time and how you witnessed both her normal life as well as her new adventures. It was far-fetched, but an interesting idea. However, just as it was getting truly good and intriguing, they canceled it. Isn't that always the way?
