Rating: - One of the Top Robin Hood Movies
Now I see why Disney hasn't put this out on DVD! Profiteering! I've been looking for it forever.
I don't know what other movies are in the Disney Movie Club, whether they're classics that're worth watching or the junk they're baloney-machining out now, but this one is worth every penny, no matter how much you pay for it! Even the hefty prices you find here (like the old days when DVD's were a new technology, not so long ago at all).
No, it's not deep. Don't go expecting that. But it's still amazing. Definitely creams the Costner version. I guess it's on-par with the Flynn version, but I like it better. Much, much better. There must be something else to it. Both Flynn and this are fairly historically accurate, mature, intelligent, witty, fun, and clean.
"A Worthy Classic" is my new title for it, in all the old connotations. I only give it four stars 'cause it's not deep.
Rating:  - Finally a Chance to See a Decent Print
A number of years ago, I reviewed the VHS version of this live-action Disney version of Robin Hood. I consider this to be the best Robin Hood film, but the VHS print was washed out and grainy. This DVD print is not a restoration, but colors are vibrant and the image and sound are at least three times better than what we had to settle for on VHS.
A lot of major artists were involved in the production of this movie, including Geoffrey Unsworth (cinematographer of Superman I), Muir Matheison (conductor of the London Symphony)and director Ken Annakin (pal of George Lucas and namesake for Skywalker Anakin, AKA Darth Vader). Every major cast member (Academy Award winner Peter Finch, Joan Rice, James Robertson Justice, Hubery Gregg) is long dead, with the exception of Robin Hood himself, Richard Todd, who as of this writing at least, is spending his late eighties in a peaceful village north of London. I wonder if it's near Sherwood Forest?
Rating:  - Robin Hood on DVD?
The reviewer above said it is cheaper to join Disney Movie club but I could not find this wonderful Robin Hood on DVD at that club, only VHS.
Big Difference
Rating: - Don't pay too much for this DVD!
This DVD is a Disney Movie Club exclusive, so can be purchased by joining the club. Even given the additional cost of buying the DVDs necessary to fulfill your agreement, it's still cheaper than paying an exorbinant price on Amazon.
The presentation itself is quite good, but not worth ridiculous money.
