     Walt Disney Pictures presents yet another tale of the Robin Hood legend, this time employing a fox as the titular hero. Join Robin as he and Little John the bear out-fox the wily Prince John and his cohort, the Sheriff of Nottingham. Prince John keeps tax rates so high that the peasants can no longer afford to pay them; therefore, imprisonment is imminent. Enter Robin Hood, as he steals the money from the prince so as to return it to the poor. Meanwhile, love is in the air for Robin and the “foxy” Maid Marian, even amidst chaotic battle sequences. Fine characters, fine action, but the songs are a waste. The kiddies are sure to enjoy.
OUR RATING— ** ½
