    Review by Owozifa ★★★★

    Disney's live action Robin Hood film manages to set itself apart from the Errol Flynn version pretty successfully. They hit some of the same beats, but they feel like individual films.

    Peter Finch as the Sheriff of Nottingham and the scenes between him and the outlaws are probably my favorite part. He's a really excellent villain. Richard Todd can't really live up to Errol Flynn as Robin Hood, but I think the band of outlaws gets a lot more play in this version. The side characters are given a little more room to breathe and contribute to the action. I also might go so far as to say there's a stronger sense of the outlaws outwitting the Sheriff and Prince…
