Robin Hood - Origins story of the fabled archer. In a time where LOTR has many sword and shield battles redundant, the generic battle climax shows an insensitivity to the need for product differentiation. Nevertheless, the middle portions of the story are most enjoyable as we see Robin's fortuitous rise to glory and eventually, to become that famed outlaw.
Kick Ass - What would have been a heroic (and realistic) story of a non-hero devolves into yet another series of superhero battles, culminating in yet another assault-on-boss'-HQ sequence. Certain parties have raised questions over an 11 year old character (actually 13) involved in scenes of violence, although one does wonder if she were 7 years older then that would be okay. Is there an age of consent for violence?
