Robin Hood (1973)
9/10
Absolutely the most under-rated Disney animation ever

This is my favorite rendition of Robin Hood! Costner has nothing compared to Brian Bedford!

This is absolutely the most under-rated Disney animation ever made. While it tells the story quite well, it also has some beautiful supporting characters, a wonderfully treacherous Prince John (Peter Ustinov), and some adorable comic relief in Terry Thomas's Sir Hiss.

While this was made when I was around 10 or so, it was still one of my favorite movies of all time. Of course, a scant four years later, Star Wars was to usurp it as my very favorite, but it remained a close second for many years to come.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think this is the only Disney animation to have all the characters portrayed by animals alone. The songs, while I usually find them annoying, are quite endearing; cute even.

I highly recommend giving it a good watch or two.

It rates an 8.8/10 from...
