Critics, per Wikipedia
In the United States and Canada, The Uprising was released alongside Practical Magic 2, Hope, Runner, and Oasis: Don't Look Back in Anger, and was projected to gross around $5 million from 2,055 theaters in its opening weekend. It ended up debuting to $3.3 million, finishing in eighth. On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 57% of 120 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 6.0/10. The website's consensus reads: "Paul Greengrass' cinéma vérité-styled medieval epic draws most of its potency from the evergreen rage of wealth inequality, but its mingling of history and myth proves more awkward than enlightening."

neutral · AI labelView post →Andrew Garfield explains how ‘THE UPRISING’ brings the 1381 Peasants’ Revolt to life on film. “Every battle scene and every fight scene comes from a very personal place. There’s nothing extraneous, it’s all related to the core need that these people are marching for.”
neutral · AI labelView post →Just saw the trailer for The Uprising and here's yet another medieval set film that's all drab and grey and caked in dirt. And I've already seen multiple architectural blunders weeeeeeee Meanwhile, the contemporary depiction of the event:

I didn't even really get to do the bit about the lack of colour and the filth, cuz there's so much. You can check it out from only £1 per month. www.patreon.com/GoingMedieva...

neutral · AI labelView post →Finally saw The Uprising. Feels like a vauge outline of a movie. Structurally it’s fine (except the end) but nothing feels specific. Characters talk only in vague generalities or plot, like someone meant to plug in specific traits and personality later on. Bummer cause it’s an interesting time.
negative · AI labelView post →I reviewed Paul Greengrass's THE UPRISING, a movie that might have been something really special if only someone had remembered to write it. www.patreon.com/scumbelievab...
negative · AI labelView post →I did 3 books (Hostile Takeover, The Uprising, Back To Our Future), 2 audio series (Meltdown, Master Plan) & 1 film (Don't Look Up). I got a lot of shit, but I think they proved prescient in their predictions. But I'm not sure that matters in a society in which nothing really seems to matter.

neutral · AI labelView post →Sat. aft. movie rev. - The Uprising dir. by Paul Greengrass w/Andrew Garfield. England 1381. Based on a true story. People were serfs & up to 60% of the pop. was wiped out by the Black Plague. It may hold lessons for today. A mad king Richard II. Engrossing & well done - highly recommend. 👍👍
positive · AI labelView post →Medieval peasants weren’t nearly as obedient as we tend to think. From tax revolts to challenges to kings and the church, ordinary people pushed back when those in power failed them. A historian explains the real history behind the new film, “The Uprising”:
neutral · AI labelView post →Hey, with all the furore over the Uprising movie, why not opt for what promises to be an extraordinary novel about the Peasants' Revolt instead? Comes with adorable illuminated dragons, so already better than the trailer of the movie. granta.com/products/doo... #MedievalSky #SkyStorians

neutral · AI labelView post →I interviewed Paul Greengrass for United 93, he described plans for a film about the Kent State massacre; current events suggest why he'd tackle the 1381 Peasants' Revolt first in The Uprising. Andrew Garfield stars in this relevant story of 'no kings'. 3 out of 5 film-authority.com/2026/10/13/t...

neutral · AI labelView post →I’m excited to see Paul Greengrass's film The Uprising. I believe it to be about Wat Tyler and the historically significant 1381 Peasants’ Revolt. The film’s international marketing team has bizarrely and anachronistically renamed it The Rise of Robin Hood🤦♂️ www.theguardian.com/film/2026/au...

neutral · AI labelView post →Watched The Uprising While it doesn't say anything about it, this film is basically like a Robin Hood origins film that may have some good acting and cinematography but the writing and pacing drags the film down along with the director's use of shaky cam within the action scenes
negative · AI labelView post →But do they do bows as assault rifles? I thought of your blog when I saw the preview for that new movie about a medieval peasant revolt (“The Uprising” I think it’s called) in front of Spiderman
neutral · AI labelView post →I am the target audience for Robin Hood films and even I do not want The Uprising to be a Robin Hood film.
neutral · AI labelView post →Wait, the studio releasing THE UPRISING, the new Paul Greengrass flick based on the English Peasants' Revolt, is now calling it a Robin Hood movie? What? I know they're barely advertising the movie but that is bizarre. It isn't about Robin! What gives?
neutral · AI labelView post →It is really rare for a director, for example, to sign off on shit like commercials or posters or social media ads. Just look at the Focus Features marketing team going UH MAKE THE UPRISING A ROBIN HOOD MOVIE 3 weeks before release and pissing off everyone who made the film.
neutral · AI labelView post →That said the politics of THE UPRISING slap! As with Snowpiercer and Monkey Man, it is wild and shocking that a film this explicitly leftist got made and released as a major film.
positive · AI labelView post →I'm about to watch the Odyssey and the trailer for this new Andrew Garfield film "The Uprising" coming in September looks dope. Poor folks masking up and killing rich people? Sign me up
positive · AI labelView post →Not a bad #LastFourWatched this #LetterboxdFriday, with a couple good ones from the Taiwan Film Festival Boston, two things decently executed, and THE UPRISING (***) if you stretch back one more day to get a full week letterboxd.com/JaySeaver/ #filmsky #moviesky
positive · AI labelView post →In our film review chat, my son concluded that "The Uprising" was "fairly terrible, all things considered". He particularly couldn't get over "The priest with a ridiculous Gen Z broccoli haircut". To which @fenlandgent.bsky.social quickly sounded the "new Half Man Half Biscuit song title" klaxon...
negative · AI labelView post →for the Reader wrote about The Uprising, a film about a peasant revolt which doesn't seem to care at all about peasants. or people. or politics. lots of shaky cam mob scenes though. chicagoreader.com/film-tv/revi...
neutral · AI labelView post →Ok, ok, ok. I found the first trailer I saw, which has this official video description: "Starring Andrew Garfield, The Uprising tells the story of the Peasants' Revolt of 1381 — when ordinary people stood against the might of a kingdom." www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyhC...
neutral · AI labelView post →So in 2021 Andrew Garfield was in Across The Spider-Verse with Tom Holland. This year he's in The Uprising with Tom Hollander. Can't wait to see what movie he makes in 2031 with Tom Hollandest.

neutral · AI labelView post →Thomasin McKenzie is such a delight! We talked about how she crafted a whole backstory for her character in THE UPRISING, filming those riot scenes, and playing Audrey Hepburn right after making this. Read at The Film Maven now! thefilmmaven.com/thomason-mck...
neutral · AI labelView post →But also, if the marketing department for The Uprising *DOESN'T* want their movie to be associated with Robin Hood, then maybe don't release a poster that looks like it copied the homework from the last Robin Hood film...
negative · AI labelView post →Gosh, this isn’t what American film makers normally do [sarcasm]. What started off as an historical film about the 1381 Peasants Revolt has seemingly had a fictional Robin Hood crowbarred in. “What had once simply been #TheUprising was now The Uprising: The Rise of Robin Hood.” #r4today
negative · AI labelView post →The Uprising's European distributor is denying any Robin Hood connection in the film and says any marketing that suggested otherwise is unauthorized. metro.co.uk/2026/08/26/a...
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm late for #LastFourWatched on #LetterboxdFriday since I just saw #HeartOfTheBeast today. Context: I saw Tom & Jerry before The Uprising but I made sure to remove it from last 4 due to it being the biggest clickbait movie of 2026--it's Chinese crap animation, not real Tom & Jerry, epic fail.
neutral · AI labelView post →Wat Tyler is hacked down by the mayor of London at Smithfield in 1381. One of the leaders of the Peasants Revolt, his story is dramatized in the British film The Uprising. Hella story and I hope the film does it justice.
positive · AI labelView post →I am beyond obsessed with them trying to panic-brand The Uprising as a Robin Hood movie (to appeal to an audience of literally nobody) and now attempting to backtrack maybe. Alamo has been showing this trailer for months sans Robin Hood connection so when I saw the subtitle I was like “Buh?”
negative · AI labelView post →New teaser for ‘THE UPRISING’. Only in theaters September 11. #TheUprising #Film
neutral · AI labelView post →#thewelshviking #youtube Watching a Welsh Viking video on “The Uprising”, & how brown everything is in the film. Bleah! I hate this trend. Not only is it not actually accurate to the period, it’s boring. Ppl wore nice clothes & put their hair up. NOT BROWN. ☹️🤬 www.youtube.com/watch?v=rASv...
negative · AI labelView post →"Without words there is only chaos and fear..." says someone in The Uprising, a movie with no script.
negative · AI labelView post →THE UPRISING (2026): Movie peaked with the opening chyron, when @andreamontoro.bsky.social, the world’s biggest fan of medieval historical fiction, whispered, “Fuck yeah,” when “England 1831” flashed on the screen.

neutral · AI labelView post →With THE UPRISING, director Paul Greengrass dramatizes a chapter of history with clear modern-day parallels, and despite his unsubtle approach, the result is a stirring epic. #AndrewGarfield is excellent in it as well. #FilmSky #MovieSky #FilmCommunity #MovieCommunity
positive · AI labelView post →Paul Greengrass does a fine job of stirring the revolutionary spirit... until his film loses all confidence and conviction at the last god damned second. My review of THE UPRISING is at @thewrap.com!
neutral · AI labelView post →For any #skystorians following the marketing kerfuffle aroud the film The Uprising, a new turn! A few weeks ago the film's marketing in the USA shifted to (wrongly) promote it as a Robin Hood movie. Now star Andrew Garfield himself is doing historical context tiktoks to set the record straight
neutral · AI labelView post →“The Uprising: The Rise of Robin Hood” is a 30 Rock movie title.

positive · AI labelView post →actually The Uprising deserves more attention esp given current events. it's a good movie. youtu.be/BOJ3UmBHdgA
positive · AI labelView post →Just back from THE UPRISING movie with ANDREW GARFIELD. It’s 1381 and half of England has been killed off by the plague. The king’s advisors decide to raise taxes on the poorest in society. The peasants have had enough. And so did I. I left after 45 minutes. Just dull mechanical storytelling.
negative · AI labelView post →The Uprising was, apparently, not made as a Robin Hood movie at all. It's meant to be a fairly straightforward historical action-drama about Wat Tyler & the Peasants' Revolt, but the distributors decided to add the "real origin of Robin Hood" line onto the promo after the fact.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Uprising, a Paul Greengrass film about the English Peasants' Revolt, comes out next month. Socialist journalist Paul Foot's classic talk on the 1381 revolt was republished as a booklet a few months ago by Redwords including a new introduction by me. bookmarksbookshop.co.uk/product/the-...
neutral · AI labelView post →#JustWatched The Uprising answers the age old question: “What would Monty Python and the Holy Grail be like if you took out the jokes and filmed it like The Office” Not a bad film, stronger first half, than second with a coda to make everyone leave upbeat which felt disingenuous. But otherwise okay
