I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

I agree with another user that said it's one of the most underrated Disney movies. It's been now redone for a Blu-ray re-release. After watching it again, out came my childhood memories, it's a masterpiece, really.The audio could have gotten a full remaster, it still sounds muffled. The picture is very crisp and now shows some edges of the drawings themselves.It's been a long time since I last watched it and I'm very glad I could watch it again, and treasure this forever. Thanks for the memories Disney!

I've never really had any love for Disney. I don't worship at the church of the mouse or get all weepy over it's iconography. So I'm judging its early 70s take on 'Robin Hood' strictly on merit, and sadly it barely gets a passing grade.Considered one of Disney's weaker animated efforts by even the most ardent of fans, 'Robin Hood' ambles along pleasantly enough, but it never displays any sense of purpose and ultimately never builds any momentum. The humor lacks wit and often falls flat despite the best efforts of a solid voice cast. Only their talent and the animation--which looks up to the usual Disney standards despite it's reduced budget and some cost cutting recycling--manage to rise above.Disney's 'Robin Hood' has it's charms, but they're likely to be lost on the young, and grownups are likely to be too bored to even notice them.

Marked for spoilers just in case. May still be relevant despite the ageing of the story. For starters, I wish all Disney movies were like this. Like pretty much all Disney productions, this adaptation is horrendously inaccurate to its source material, that being both the original legends and the "canonical" story dramatised by the Robin Hood: Legend of Sherwood video game. However, this movie is greatly different from the others because of the prologue. Our Narrator of sorts, Rooster!Alan-a-Dale, starts with a prologue saying basically that this movie is going to be an original work. Don't expect the source material, expect a new story fashioned out of it by Disney for their own use. That is the huge difference right there. The annoying inaccuracy and such are still there, but it's better to establish that right off the bat so we can put that aside and speak about the movie. As for the movie itself, barring canonical fidelity of course, it is a decent production. It has its low points (mainly composed of cringeworthy humour and "eccentric" for lack of a better word bits), but for the most part it is classic Disney. Anachronistic, musical, funny, and quite memorable. One thing about Disney is that its work is memorable. Whether for good or for bad, it is always memorable. As for the story itself, it is internally consistent (mostly) and fairly amusing in itself. I don't recommend it for serious social watching, but I highly recommend it for casual enjoyment and especially for middle to low intensity class kids (the high ones are better off in the serious circles). Lastly, I raise my rating for the depiction of Friar Tuck. I'm not in favour of equality and representation and all of that, but as long as you people are at it you ought to raise the rating for having a legitimate priest in there, acting pious and zealous for the Lord.

Robin Hood is a heroic outlaw in English folklore who, according to legend, was a highly skilled archer and swordsman. Traditionally depicted as being dressed in Lincoln green,[1] he is often portrayed as "robbing from the rich and giving to the poor" alongside his band of Merry Men. Robin Hood became a popular folk figure in the late-medieval period, and continues to be widely represented in literature, films and television.It was a really nice Disney movie with interesting characters and some enjoyable scenes. People can perceptive differents recurring scenes, things, symbols, which have been in Snow white and the seven dwarfs,The ArostiCats, and the The Jungle Book. So this movie includes some characteristics of Disney, and it was mixed scenes of the mentioned films.
