Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
j-jessie-weaver I was really excited when I heard this movie was going to be released, but on the day my mother took me to see it, all my hope for this movie was thrown out the window. "Winnie the Pooh" is absolute garbage from start to finish. The only positives I have about this film are the animation and the "Everything is Honey" sequence. That's it. The rest of it is trash.First of all, most of the characters, with the exceptions of Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore, Piglet and Christopher Robin, are completely unlikable and out of character; Especially Kanga and Roo. Rabbit and Owl switch roles and act very annoying. Piglet and Eeyore are abused throughout almost the entire movie because seeing characters getting tortured is funny.The voice acting, except Jim Cummings as Pooh and Tigger, is beyond lazy. Tom Kenny does a pathetic attempt as Rabbit. He's basically SpongeBob SquarePants in a rabbit costume. Most of the songs are terribly written and horribly sung as well. Like I said, the only song that had at least SOME effort put into it was "Everything is Honey." The story is all over the place and at some points, they shove it off to the side to either make Eeyore and Piglet miserable or tell jokes that aren't even remotely funny.Ever since my young childhood, I grew up with Disney's adaptation of "Winnie the Pooh." This version of it spits on the legacy of these beloved characters and puts them into a movie that absolutely butchers them. I cannot believe how many positive reviews this film has gotten. Disney didn't even try or care to make it good. They just recycled plot elements from previous movies and made it as sloppy as possible.If you have a young kid who loves "Winnie the Pooh," I recommend "Piglet's Big Movie" or any of the others starring the character. They are so much better than this.
OllieSuave-007 This is the 51st full-length animated feature film from Disney, featuring Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet, Rabbit, Tigger, Kanga, Roo, Eeyore, Owl and Christopher Robin - all characters from novelist A.A. Milne's books based on the stuffed animals that belonged to his son, Christopher Robin Milne.Like the original 1977 Winnie the Pooh movie, this film opens with a look into what appears to be the room of Christopher Robin, with his stuffed animals laying around, instantly giving you the impression of a peaceful and innocent aspect of a child's life. It then takes you into the animated world of the Hundred Acre Wood, where the honey-loving Winnie the Pooh, depressed Eeyore, the garden-loving Rabbit, the chatterbox Owl, the gentle and concerned Piglet, the motherly Kanga, the inquisitive Roo and the hyperactive Tigger live.John Cleese did a nice job narrating the film through a storybook illustration, as did Jim Cummings voicing Winnie The Pooh, giving him that distinct voice that everybody is familiar with. SpongeBob voice actor Tom Kenny did a good job voicing Rabbit (makes it kind of interesting you're hearing SpongeBob's voice coming out of a rabbit). The rest of the voice cast was OK, but I thought the actor who voiced Christopher Robin over did it on the British accent.The hand-drawn animation was pretty good, instantly reminding you of the old classic Disney movies and is a welcome departure from the more recent CGI animated ones. The story, on the other hand, is very juvenile and silly with a very basic plot and limited suspense. The characters were portrayed as very dimwitted, even if they are cartoon creatures. The original Winnie The Pooh movie is indeed whimsical and has silly moments, but it at least contains adventures, light-hearted humor, catchy songs and depiction of giving and friendship. This movie does not elaborate much on any of those elements, which made the film dull in my humble opinion.This movie is almost treated like just another episode of a cartoon series. The ending result is that this movie is best suited for a kids only audience, which is a bit disappointing since Disney's full-length animated features are usually suitable for both children and adults. But, this movie does have that carefree and innocent feel that is best for young children to watch.Grade D+
lisafordeay So I saw this today on Five and I really found it cute as it brought me back to my childhood where I watch all the hand-drawn movies again from The Lion King even to The Little Mermaid,I was always a fan of Hand- Drawn animation always have always will. I even love today's CGI movies even though A lot of the charcthers look the same but with a different voice or hairstyle.Moving on to this movie this is of course a Walt Disney Animation Studios Picture and its the last ever movie to be done in hand-drawn form as The Princess & The Frog was the last ever Disney Princess movie to be done in hand-drawn form before Tangled came out a year later in CGI form marking it its first CGI Disney princess movie. SO what is this film about well its about Winnie and his friends who have to search for Eeryores tail which goes missing. So they go off and find his tail. There's a couple of songs thrown in from Zooey Deschnail from Elf who did a few songs in this movie and the songs here are done by husband and wife duo Kirsten Anderson Lopez(who provides the voice of the female kangaroo),and Robert Lopez(both of whom did the music for the highly overrated flick Frozen which is taking the world by storm now).For barely an hour long its nice to see a hand-drawn movie which Disney is known for doing best since Disney started n 1937 with Snow Whit & The Seven Dwarfs. Bottom line I enjoyed this movie and the narration is done by John Cleese who tells the story by reading a book. Overall im glad that I was able to see this finale of hand-drawn animation and here is to Disney for the near future. Check it out and see what you can think of itR.I.P to hand drawn movies 1937-2011
gameondgo I love all of the Winnie the Pooh movies, and I watch them regularly. I think they are very good for children and grown ups who are still children in heart, like me. So, because I watched every Winnie that was available, I have noticed a few things which I didn't like in this one that are different from all the rest. This Winnie the Pooh movie is not very good. First, the Rabbit is different, and in one scene he thinks about girls and money, what's up with that? How could you change an innocent character by adding stuff from MTV videos, and why? Also, the Piglet and Winnie are behaving stupid in some of the scenes and they are not usually like that, they are simple, but in a cute way, it's not a flaw like their stupidity in this one. And the plot... The plot is just copy of previous stories from old Winnie movies. So, I'm glad they released the new movie but they could do it a lot better.
