Robin Hood

Robin Hood was another Disney film my sister wanted me to watch and yeah it's pretty good. What's the story? Well having it be Robin Hood it does follow the story pretty well. "Robin Hood" robs from the rich and gives to the poor in order to defeat "Prince John." He's in love with the princess "Maid Marian" and tries to win an archery contest but get's caught in the progress. From here on in it's sword fighting, archery, stealing and probably one of the best Disney climaxes ever. The action is great. Despite it being animated I would say these action scenes are pretty intense. Robin himself is a pretty basic nice hero and a very likable one at that. And the same with Maid Marian. She's just your typical nice princess. Though I never  got why they never added her in the third act at least until the very end when her and Robin get married. Anyway, the villain is Prince John and he's a very fun and comedic villain especially when talking to his sidekick snake named "Hiss." Prince John is also a very babyish villain and that leads to a lot of funny moments especially his arguments with Hiss. While watching it again I actually found the "Sherriff of Nottingham" is pretty funny too. He is just such a jerk-ass with the various ways he'll find to steal money from people. He'll even go so far as to rob a blind person, that has to be one of the most evilest things I've ever seen in a Disney movie. And like I said the climax is one of the best in all of Disney history as well a one of the mot suspenseful ones. Over all Robin Hood is a pretty good kids adventure movie. It's entertaining for everyone.
