Product: Robin Hood [VHS] (1973)
Rating: 5.0
A riot from beginning to end
I have the video "Robin Hood", and it is an absolute scream! It's a hilarious rendition of the Robin Hood legend, made as hilarious as it is by the antics of the villains: Prince John, Sir Hiss, the Sheriff of Nottingham, and the Sheriff's deputies: Trigger and Nutsy. Well, the Sheriff isn't as funny as the others, but it's funny when he's victimized by the antics of Trigger and Nutsy.As for the other four, Sir Hiss is actually the smartest of the group, but he has the misfortune of being the syncophant of Prince John, who won't listen to a word Sir Hiss will say and blames Sir Hiss when things predictably go wrong. As for Prince John himself, he's so immature, childish, and easily duped, he's a scream! Especially when he sucks his thumb and cries "Mommy!" It cracks me up! Trigger's antics with his crossbow, "Old Betsy" also are hilarious, especially when the crossbow goes off! And Nutsy is so stupid, he doesn't even know that he should add a couple of hours to his brain!In short, I recommend this film for its humor and adventure. Don't miss it!Belle Book
