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.

The critics that rated this poorly need to stop submitting reviews as a part time gig and stick to flipping burgers for minimum wage.

Tried to sit through the movie yesterday and struggled with it. But 8 year old me thought it was a masterpiece and required one screening daily. I happen to think my 8 yr old opinion is worth something.

Too slack and loose to be considered a truly great effort on Disney's behalf but too charming to refuse.
