A high-spirited, song-and-dance parody of Robin Hood transplanted to Prohibition-era Chicago, built on Rat Pack charm, musical numbers, and comedic irreverence rather than genuine menace.

Set in Prohibition era Chicago, bootlegger Robbo and his cronies refuse to pay the greedy Guy Gisborne a cut of their profits after Guy shoots mob boss Big Jim and takes over. When Big Jim's daughter, Marian, gives Robbo a large sum, believing he has avenged her father's death, the gangster donates to an orphanage, cementing his reputation as a softhearted hood.
