Dismissed by many as overly-long, poorly-scripted Rat Pack self-indulgence with despicable musical material, “Robin and the 7 Hoods” is a wacky mafia musical in the fun-loving style of pre-Hammerstein Broadway variety shows, and with a glorious quickly collection of Cahn-Van Heusen tunes. Remember, it’s this musical, not “Chicago,” that gave the Windy City its proudest anthem. But as solid as the Chairman’s performance is, it can’t match Crosby’s, in the archaic crooner’s next-to-last film appearance.
Once Bing appears mid-way through the film, the rest of the picture–with the exception of the”My Kind of Town” gala number–belongs to Crosby. His acting, singing, and dancing not only outshine his on-screen companions but in many respects manufacture the Rat Pack appear like a coherent musical comedy team. At five foot seven inches, Bing was usually the shortest member on the residence, but in both this film and “High Society” his crisp, economical body movements and like a flash, sparkling feet design him “play” taller than his staunch height.
The dubbing is, as others have observed, exquisite unconvincing. On the other hand, most of the dance and music scenes are shot continuously in a single bewitch or two, like an Astaire film. Others may choose the frenetic and manipulative MTV editing style of films like “Chicago,” which permit the filmmaker to “create” a reality while transforming bozos into Baryshnikovs. I’ll steal these bozos fair as they are.
In early 1960’s, Frank Sinatra and his Rat Pack were asked to do a musical, after the hit film Ocean’s 11 (impress for those unfamilar, this is NOT the Clooney version) . Frank, Dean and Sammy did their version of Robin Hood. Supporting them in this film were Barbara Run, a pre-Columbo-ed Peter Falk and Bing (White Christmas) Crosby. This film reminds me of Sinatra’s Guys and Dolls

The myth is a gangstered 1920’s ish, Chicago mob memoir with music. The Rats are minus Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop, but you wont miss them in the romp. Crosby does a sendup on his image in a trio song with Sinatra and Martin. Sammy solos in Bang! Bang!, showing tap dancing and GUNS can go together in the hand of a master showman. Falk steals every scene he is in with such aplomb, you wonder why he did not do many more comedy.
the Sammy Cahn salvage, orchestered by Nelson Riddle is first rate and pure Sinatra with songs like My Kinda Town Chicago.
