From a recently read review:
The PG-13 rating (mandatory for maximizing audience size) disallows any serious bloodletting or sexuality, and this makes much of Robin Hood seem almost cartoonish...One has to wonder whether Scott's original vision of Robin Hood was more adult and fully-formed than the theatrical version.So basically, he's saying that a film's not for grown-ups if it doesn't have a plentiful amount of blood and sexuality? Well, guess what? Some of us deliberately look for movies without that! So "Casablanca" is for toddlers? And "Rear Window", which managed to be suspensful without explosions and carnage? Sheesh, whatever happened to storytelling?
