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

Reviews for Robin Hood
What sinks this one is the utter lack of the childhood insight and sympathy that really give the Disney films their staying power.
Compared with modern Disney films, which are dominated by the self-absorption and eventual self-discovery of their main characters, Robin Hood offers surprisingly stark and interesting social questions.
The visual style is charmingly conventional, as gently reassuring as that of a Donald Duck cartoon, sometimes as romantically pretty as an old Silly Symphony.
