Wiki:

Roger Ebert praised Morgan Freeman's performance as well as Alan
Rickman's, but ultimately decried the film as a whole, giving it two
stars and stating "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves is a murky,
unfocused, violent and depressing version of the classic story...The
most depressing thing about the movie is that children will attend it
expecting to have a good time."

Carpenter also explains that Costner and the others involved in the
Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves film have admitted to watching the Robin
of Sherwood as inspiration for their film.

Ebert/Wiki == Gross Ignorance. I'd advise everyone to watch it for
themselves.

The latest Robin Hood (Russell Crowe version) is a Paris-sewer-level
stinker.

Idiot. Oil rigs already have what they need, and they typically do NOT
pipe up water contaminated gush from the well.

So, where is the need, oh spirited guru of nothing?

Yes, yes, we have already figured it out... it's centered around Costner.
