Movies that feel likeRobin Hood (2018)

A war-hardened Crusader and his Moorish commander mount an audacious revolt against the corrupt English crown.

If you loved Robin Hood, the closest films we have are Hanna (2011), Commando (1985) and Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children (2016). All three share Robin Hood's epic and wistful feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is The Shadow's Edge (2025).

To find her, Matrix has to fight his way through an array of punks, killers, one of his former commandos, and a fully equipped private army.
