It made so much fucking money that four years later, two Kevins, director Reynolds and star Costner, got to make Waterworld, a widely mocked disaster that was, in its moment, the most expensive movie in history.
( Beauty And The Beast has now made more box-office money than Prince Of Thieves or T2, but it needed a few re-releases to get there.) Abroad, Prince Of Thieves doubled its haul. Prince Of Thieves outgrossed The Silence Of The Lambs and City Slickers and, at least in the moment, Beauty And The Beast. Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves earned $165 million at the domestic box office - more than any non- Terminator 2 movie in 1991. But Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves was also some kind of cultural phenomenon. In my memory, Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves exists as a pretty decent Saturday-afternoon watch. Sean Connery showed up at the end that was cool. But there were also some battle scenes that impressed me, and I liked Alan Rickman playing the Sheriff Of Nottingham as Hans Gruber. Sorry.) I remember the movie being OK? Some of it was boring, and there was more kissing stuff than I wanted. (I did not rewatch it in preparation for this column. It has been many, many years since I saw Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves.
