Taron Egerton in “Robin Hood.”

“ROBIN HOOD”

>> Rated: PG-13 for extended sequences of violence and action, and some suggestive references

>> What it’s about: Yet another version of the medieval hero who steals from the rich and gives to the poor, this time starring Taron Egerton

>> The kid attractor factor: The action genre and hunky star will draw teen audiences.

>> Good lessons/bad lessons: Do what’s right, even if it’s hard, have empathy for others, redistribute the wealth.

>> Violence: Brutal battle scenes during the Crusades and during the fight for freedom against the sheriff. Sword fighting, limb chopping, punching, explosions, bows and arrows. Lots of action.

>> Language: None

>> Sexuality: Some sensual kissing scenes with Robin and Marian, a sexy wild party

>> Drugs: None

>> Parents advisory: Too violent for little kids but OK for teens
