Product Description In an attempt to capture Robin Hood and his friends, the Sheriff of Nottingham releases a dragon into the countryside.
Amazon.com The Prince of Thieves encounters sorcery and CGI dragons in this action-fantasy hybrid, which aired on the SyFy Channel. The dragon in question is really the enchanted form of a woman (Katherine Isabelle) from another dimension, and in her scaly form, she killed the father of young Robin Hood. Flash forward a couple of decades, and the grown Robin (Robin Dunne) suffers a serious hitch in his take-from-the-rich-give-to-the-poor arrangement, courtesy of the evil Prince John (David Richmond-Peck) and the even more wicked Sheriff of Nottingham (Julian Sands, who consumes the scenery with relish), both of whom use the lady/dragon against him and his Merry Men. It's a novel idea, but executed with dreary pacing by actor-turned-director Peter DeLuise, rickety special effects, and dreadful acting by all save Sands and Erica Durance (Smallville's Lois Lane) as an action-ready Maid Marian. The story of Robin Hood has been told numerous times before, and in most cases, better than this. The widescreen DVD includes an original TV trailer and a brief making-of featurette. --Paul Gaita Stills from Beyond Sherwood Forest (Click for larger image)

Old century heroism April 24, 2010 Cheryl K. Neal 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Film of true entertainment. Even though this movie is on the preference of Robin Hood, the action and patriotism is performed with excellence. The storyline of the girl dragon bird and the forest was unbelievably noteworthy. I would refer this movie to all friends and family.
Beyond Sherwood Forest blu-ray August 25, 2010 Joseph D. Sagerstrand (Holbrook, New York) This was an excellent movie for the whole family. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I would highly recommend this movie for everyone.

Beyond Sherwood Forest Blu Ray June 27, 2010 Jeffrey A. Ramsay Received the Blu-ray disc very quickly as usual. The movie was mediocre unlike many of the other Robin Hood tales.
12th Century "Sanctuary" January 29, 2010 Matthew Markovich (Alta Loma,Ca. USA Earth) 17 out of 23 found this review helpful
I watched this on the SYFY Channel and wasn't expecting anything profound. I was correct in that assessment but I found in quite enjoyable nonetheless.
Although I didn't care for the killing off of Friar Tuck I thought it had its interesting takes on the Robin Hood mythos. Robin Dunne was adequate as Robin of Locksley and Erica Durance made an adventurous Marian.
I think a larger budget could have made the scenery more convincing but I understand in this day that money is tight.
Over all, i was satisfied with this made for TV straight to DVD movie.
