<em>'Robin Hood: Men in Tights'</em> is a film that I can see the appeal for. For me, I 'only' found it to be noticeably amusing, as in I don't think I actually laughed once but I was constantly appreciating the many gags that arrive; smirks aplenty, for sure. I'm happy I've finally got it watched. Of the cast, Cary Elwes obviously stands out most. I'm not overly into him as an actor, though I would say he was a strong fit for this one. Richard Lewis and Roger Rees are the best of the rest in my opinion, while Mark Blankfield, Patrick Stewart and director Mel Brooks have solid minor roles. Despite seeing over 2,700 movies, this makes for my first Mel Brooks film. I do have some bewildering blind spots, it's gotta be said; e.g. Alfred Hitchcock is another. Brooks' <em>'Blazing Saddles'</em> is one I plan to see soon. As for this? Good.
