Ouch! Two of my all-time faves here. Here are my evaluations: Costner as Ness > Costner as Robin Hood DeNiro as Capone < Rickman as the Sheriff of Nottingham Connery as Malone > Freeman as Azeem Morricone's score < Kamen's score Train station shootout > Gallows rescue Prosecuting Capone < Sword duel with Sheriff of Nottingham I could go back and forth all day. I think I'm going with "Robin Hood," though, for nostalgia. I saw it in its original theatrical run, and watched it countless times on VHS back in the day. I was too young to see "Untouchables" during its release, and came to it in my late teens,

Prince of Thieves!

Costner is underrated and under-appreciated in my book. Takes a lot of flack for his non-accent in Robin Hood but the film itself is entertaining. Still, not near as good as The Untouchables.

Kevin Costner is one of the worst actors ever. He acts bad in both, but Robin Hood is definitely worse.
