Robin Hood Makes Good (1939)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
Three squirrels are in the woods reading about Robin Hood and then decide to act is out. The smallest squirrel is forced to be the bad guy, although he wants to be Robin Hood. Soon a fox sees them playing a decides to fool the bigger two so that he can eat them.
ROBIN HOOD MAKES GOOD certainly isn't a classic by any stretch of the imagination but it's entertaining enough to make it worth watching. Obviously the big moments are going to come towards the end when the smaller squirrel has to rise to the occasion and battle the fox. The final few minutes are certainly the highlight of the picture as it's quite funny how everything plays out. The animation itself was extremely good but the characters really aren't all that strong, which keeps the film from being better.
