The Death of Robin Hood arrives in theaters Friday, June 19, with Hugh Jackman taking on one of the darker summer swings from A24. Michael Sarnoski writes and directs the revisionist Robin Hood movie, which trades the usual Sherwood adventure language for blood, regret, punishment, and late-life reckoning.

The film stars Jackman as an older Robin Hood, with Jodie Comer, Bill Skarsgård, Murray Bartlett, and Noah Jupe also in the cast. The official synopsis follows Robin after a life of crime and murder, as a grievous injury leaves him in the care of a mysterious woman who offers him a chance at salvation.

Current The Death of Robin Hood Ratings at a Glance

The Death of Robin Hood Average Rating Across Major Review Sites

Using the available scored platforms, The Death of Robin Hood averages 65.7/100 across Rotten Tomatoes critics, IMDb, and Metacritic. That places the movie in a respectable but clearly divided range, especially for a grim A24 reinterpretation of a familiar folk hero.

The average rating was calculated by converting all available scores to a 100-point scale and averaging the results.

What the Ratings Say About The Death of Robin Hood

The critical response has been mixed-positive overall. Reviewers have largely praised the film’s craft, Jackman’s commitment, Sarnoski’s atmosphere, and the bruised medieval texture of the production. The lower scores have pushed back against the movie’s bleakness, slow pacing, and heavy-handed treatment of Robin Hood as a violent man confronting the mythology built around him.

Audience reaction is still incomplete because the film has not opened wide yet. IMDb has early ratings posted, but Rotten Tomatoes has no verified audience score, Metacritic has no user score, Letterboxd has no public average, and CinemaScore will not be available until after opening-night polling.

For now, The Death of Robin Hood looks like a movie critics respect more than they embrace. It has enough early support to avoid the disaster label, but the numbers also suggest a hard sell for viewers expecting a rousing outlaw adventure. This Robin Hood comes covered in mud, blood, and spiritual exhaustion, and the ratings already reflect how sharply that choice splits the room.
