Disney's Robin Hood animated movie is not only a standout feature in a series of highly celebrated animated films by Walt Disney's production company but it is also among the very best of many re-imaginings of a timeless classic. Walt Disney has always had a way of making an old tale magical again and this fact can easily be proven through Robin Hood.

Robin Hood is the story of a man and his band of loyal companions who believed in robbing the rich of their excessive assets and donating it to the needy to promote an equality among men. Kevin Kosner has played the prince of thieves in a live action film. Even Mel Brooks shot a parody of the men in their green tights.

But Disney's Robin Hood was easily the most lovable version with its colorful animal characters and unforgettable charm. Robin Hood was a bright orange fox who you couldn't help but cheer on in his epic duels with the Sheriff of Nottingham and his henchmen. If you're ever in the mood to see a revolutionary hero in a revolutionary animated classic the Robin Hood should be your first choice.
