DISNEY - ROBIN HOOD(1973)


This is a great movie!! One of my favorite of all Disney
movies, animated or otherwise! This has the great Roger
Miller singing a couple of really great songs in it! A


From a reviewer at IMDb.com

'I've watched this video so many times, I can no longer
count, and every time, I wind up laughing my head off! I
really think this is one of the most underrated Disney
movies out there.

This version of Robin Hood has animals in the roles of
the characters, and it works marvelously! It would be
natural for Robin Hood to be a fox if he was an animal,
for both the fox and Robin are very clever. And if Robin
Hood is a fox, naturally, Maid Marian would be a vixen.
Also, having Prince John and King Richard as lions are
natural choices, since the lion is the King of the Jungle.

What I loved most about the film, as I hinted at earlier,
is the humor, most of it provided by Prince John, Sir Hiss
(a snake), Trigger, and Nutsy (both vultures). Prince John's
habit of sucking his thumb whenever anyone mentions
his mother is priceless! And he's so vain it's little trouble
for Robin Hood and Little John (a bear) to rob him when
they're disguised as fortune-tellers! Sir Hiss is smarter
than any of the other bad guys, but the humor with him
is that Prince John never believes him until it's too late,
and abuses him afterwards. Trigger's "old Betsy" (a
crossbow) provides plenty of laughs, especially when
it goes off! And Nutsy is so stupid he says "One o'clock
and all's well!" when it's three o'clock, and when told
to set his brain ahead a couple hours, he doesn't know
if he has to add or subtract two hours! That's a scream!

If there's any real fault, it lies in the animation. It is really
substandard, and I have noticed reused or inaccurate
footage in the film. But it is a minor flaw in the film, and
it doesn't take away from my enjoyment of it.

So, rent or buy "Robin Hood" today! It's a
scream! - Belle Book
