Russell Crowe's Sons Bored

Russell Crowe children did not like "Robin Hood".

The Australian actor - who plays the main character in the movie - took her children Charlie, six, and Tennyson, three to a special screening of the film, but he was not impressed by the project for Ridley Scott- directed.

He said: "I thought, I'll take this as the first of my films to see.

"They were so excited and came to the screening room and went mad. Five minutes into the movie, my oldest son, Charlie, it's like, 'Oh, Dad, can we go home now? And my baby is crying "Daddy, when will you find a horse?

"After a while, I had the horse, and my little girl said:" Well, Dad, you have the horse. Can we go home now? "I just take it as a lesson humility of those moments that deal with all the time as a father. "

The 46-year-old also admits he had to train hard to be fit for the film because he had a lot of injuries the previous films.

He said: "I am in a constant battle with the death of my own body. I hurt myself a lot of 'Gladiator'. I really hurt in a hockey stupid little movie called "Mystery, Alaska," because I had never skated. I have wrist injuries and hand injuries from time to boxing in "Cinderella Man". I have things around.

"I tried very hard to" Robin Hood, you wake up one morning and feel 20 years younger. "

"Robin Hood" - which also stars Cate Blanchett as Maid Marion - will open the Cannes Film Festival May 12 before being released worldwide.
