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.

Foxes with bows and arrows. What could be better than that?

Even at its best, Robin Hood is only mildly diverting.

While the film might not be perfect, Robin Hood is one of the more underrated Disney efforts. Blending imagination with technical ability, the film is entertaining and rewarding.

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.

What a fun and thrilling adaptation of Robin Hood! But, there are a few scenes with outdated and inappropriate humor.

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.
