Critics Consensus

One of the weaker Disney adaptations, Robin Hood is cute and colorful but lacks the majesty and excitement of the studio's earlier efforts.

The washed-out, muted colors are a mistake, and if Robin Hood is sometimes hilarious, it has little memorable magic. Go to Full Review Ian Nathan Empire Magazine 11/04/2009

Caleb B @RT46256200 Jan 12 Avoiding compassion to other Disney films, this film works very well to match the depression of the era and ideals of generosity and hope. Its good fun and entertaining to children from all decades. See more Kymber H. @SandlotLover17 Dec 29 What a fun and thrilling adaptation of Robin Hood! But, there are a few scenes with outdated and inappropriate humor. See more Brian W. @Bweiss Dec 24 The audience has it right once again! See more Sam @hessineer Dec 13 My favorite animation movie when I was a kid. See more Sarah S. @Braxton188 Dec 2 Someone discovered they were a furry because of this movie. See more NA N @NANA111 Sep 27 Very underrated for some reason. Great character designs and emotional range. It has some very sad and dark moments early on that lead to a pay off and for a kids movie does a good job in regards to things like emotional intelligence and depth. Built around a classic Medieval myth its not necessarily the most action packed but a thoroughly classic lovable none the less. See more Read all reviews
