Robin Hood (Disney)Brian Bedford
What a strange idea that worked! Ofcourse I mean casting the story of robin hood with animal cartoons instead of human cartoons. This cartoon was always one of my disney favorites and I decided to buy it. At the age of 23, I wasnt sure if it would still hold up and grab my attention like when I was younger, but I still love it!This is a great movie that everyone can enjoy. I thought the characters such as Sir Hiss, Robin Hood, Friar Tuck, Prince John are wonderful. They all have such unique and funny personalities. Watching this in my older years got me thinking about currupt power, taxes, the poor, the death penalty and other adult issues. Not to worry parents! Your kids wont have to think of such things cause they will be busy loving the cute characters, jokes and great storyline. This movie sends a important message of human compassion. This movie never made me ever think of stealing when I was younger, but just incase your worried, please explain to kids that stealing is not right, but Robin Hood was taking back money from the rich that they stole from the poor(because of the insane taxes).The songs while not the most memorable of Disneys theme songs are really great and I actually enjoy them more now. There is alot of really great folk songs that are really catchy(i even find myself singin them in the car).The DVD quality is great and there is a bonus Mickey and Goofy cartoon included!
