Summary: Robin Hood, As I Remembered
Comment: As with many stories, this one comes from several versions, even within the Disney group. This is basically the version I remembered of the animated presentations of Robin Hood. Look for some of the Robin Hood cliches, like the arrow splitting the arrow already in the bulls eye (Can this really be done? Check with the Myth Busters!)
Sherwood Forest may be close to home. During one of the fight scenes, I distinctly heard the "fight song" "On Wisconsin." How did this end up in the movie? Was this some kind of product placement?
Buy it. Enjoy it. Give a copy to a kid you know. Keep a copy for the kid you are.

Summary: Listen to Peter Ustinov!
Comment: My kids and I find the movie very entertaining and charming -- 3-year-old Martin wants this movie and only this movie no matter the myriad alternatives we offer.
I remember growing up with the soundtrack playing all the time on LP, so I have a fond place in my heart for it.
But, having seen it more time than I care to count, I still cannot get enough of Peter Ustinov's voice characterizations of Prince John. His phrasings are a comic tour de force. A real masterstroke. And he's clearly having the time of his life sounding everything from dictatorial commands to loud thumb-sucking and crying for his mommy.
As a side benefit, those who loved Baloo the Bear in The Jungle Book get a second chance to watch him, as Phil Harris voices the character of Little John who is drawn as -- Baloo the Bear! Unfortunately, the songs don't quite rise to the level of "Bear Necessities," but they're cute and catchy nonetheless.
Most highly recommended for all ages.

Summary: Great flick - presentation a mixed bag
Comment: Robin Hood (Most Wanted Edition)
Not known as one of Disney's better animated features, but still quite watchable. The repetitive animation reminds me of 1970s cartoon "shortcuts" that were common - look at the animal parade in the opening credits.
After a side-by-side comparison, I think the movie is better framed by the original 1.33:1 aspect ratio. Still, it's hard not to like a Disney animated feature with Phil Harris' voice.

Comment: This is the best animated version. Our kids loved it when they were young and now our grandkids love it. They watched three times the first day.

Summary: Childhood Favorite
Comment: This is a memorable favorite from my childhood that I had to have. So glad Amazon had this version. My kids are a bit too young for it but I hope they'll soon love this movie as much as I did and still do.
