Winnie the Pooh

At just over an hour, it's very short for a feature film, but every bit as charming as you'd hope. Possibly the funniest post-credits scene ever.

Seemingly immune to the decades' worth of ruthless innovation and increasing broadness in mainstream animation that's made cartoon buffs such unshakable cynics. There's no nostalgia or self-awareness here; only the pureness and confidence offered by respected tradition. The film is formulaic, but comforting in a way familiar faces and places can be, and I think that's the point. The new voices may rub some long-time fans the wrong way initially but they're well-cast and not jarring for long.

Winnie the Pooh offers a few genuine gems of comedy that can be enjoyed by all ages. However the majority of the film is simply lacklustre and doesn't compare to the original film. Pooh's seemingly self-aware stomach is more creepy than cute and there are far too many songs in this for my liking. Even so, as I mentioned, there are some gems in here so it's worth watching once for one more go down memory lane.

Beautiful, clever, and genuinely funny: Disney's overlooked late-period masterpiece.

Charming in its simplicity, but it's also not afraid to toy around with the medium. More clever than any of its animated contemporaries, the humor comes from character first and foremost. Pooh is downright hilarious. My one tiny quibble is that one or two characters sound too noticeably different than their original iconic voices, namely Piglet, but that could just be the nostalgia talking.

Where everyone is trying to innovate as much as possible, we get a perfect example of how old school animation making can be far more charming than most up to date attempts. Winnie the Pooh is charming, funny, sweet and a perfect childrens movie. I loved every second of it!

A call-back to a simpler time in animation, this film is both nostalgic and surprisingly funny and innovative.

You know, I didn't expect it to be a 90... it's Pooh so I figured it'd be worth it, but I won't even front, I was smiling a lot during this. You know what to expect, and it does it really well. Pooh made me laugh on numerous occasions. "Oh I don't remember thinking this through," was probably the biggest laugh for me. The movie is so gentle, so charming, so cute, with animation that's alive. The only issue is the length but at least you get a lot of bang in a short period of time.

Utterly sweet and charming Pooh adaptation is a down-the-line meat and potatoes version with little conventional fire or excitement, but as a brief breather and call-back to simpler times, it is quietly irresistible, with Cleese's gentle narration intruding on the story in some quite clever and witty ways. Undoubtedly your response to this will be dictated by your response to Pooh's pun-filled and captivatingly simple world, but great fun for those on its wavelength.

Disney returns to some good old classic characters to tell a good old simple and sweet movie that's fun for the whole family. I liked the incorporation of the book and letters in this. The longer song sequences take the pace out of the movie, without those this could have been good.

Nice and short for the kids but a little empty for the adults. Owl's more cunning than I remember!

Milne's characters are still brilliant. But something is off. It might just be that my being 30 years old has a lot to do with it, though.

Too many songs, too many "oh look we're in a book" gags, too much stomach-rumbling... I mean, it's not a pain to watch, and the kids will probably love it, but I've seen Pooh much better than this. For some reason Zooey Deschanel has been involved in almost all the music and it's neither very impressive or unimpressive. Also, too short, and the plot still doesn't feel like it fills the bizarrely brief running time.

I know I'm not the target demographic, but this was really predictable. It really just felt like a long TV episode (and not that long, at a 60 minute run time). It seems they would have picked something bigger for the movie, but I guess not. There is really nothing you can take away from this as an adult. Kids movie through and through, which means boring for anyone above the age of 10.

With the (returning?) animation talents of Mark Henn and Andreas Deja, Winnie the Pooh is animated far more beautifully and expressively than any prior version. It's well-written too. But at just a hair over an hour long, I can't help but feel a bit cheated. I know young kids are the prime target but even they can usually do an 80 minute movie. C'mon, Disney, you cheaped out on the runtime.

Most Disney movies now will be more fast paced and try to appeal to a wider audience, but this movie wants to be more simple. Thankfully they left out the Heffalumps in favor of the superior Backson

Narrator: "This could be the room of any small boy, but in fact, it's not. It is the room of one young boy in particular named Christopher Robin. Now, Christopher Robin has a very active imagination, not to mention the uncanny ability to collect things. Big things, small things, sticky things... but his favorite things are his stuffed animals."

Tries to copy the old movie, but manages somehow to remove everything that was charming about it, while at the same time keeping intact everything that was annoying.

Does exactly what it should and it's a near perfect if not all too short movie.

I don't like the songs very much but it reminds me of being six and not having a care in the world so I'm going to give it a score that may be higher than I would otherwise.

Perhaps overly basic and simple; but very sweet with lovely animation.

Cuteness overload

(2014-15 Disneython #45:) I've no doubt this film is probably wonderful for its target audience. I'm... not really that target audience, though. It is definitely a film for young children.

An incredibly pleasant surprise. Wonderfully animated, hilarious, and adorable. The best Pooh-related thing I have ever seen, without exaggeration.

frustratingly short, but this movie manages to capture exactly what made "the many adventures of winnie the pooh" a classic children's cartoon worthy of watching in adulthood.

I thought this was way way way too short, but I was glad that Stephen J. Anderson and the gang were able to bring back one of my favorite parts of my childhood, Winnie the Pooh. It's well animated and could literally entertain everyone who watches, aside from the length.

Wasn't bad, a little boring. But I hated the voices, they just didn't fit.

Hilarious, charming, good-natured, and concise. Wonderful characters in Piglet and Eeyore. Interesting storytelling technique with the animated/interactive picture book idea.

Its refreshing to know that when Disney (not Pixar) wants to make a good movie they still can. I couldn't give this score higher than tier 8 because for adults its a little lacking. It did have enough charming nostalgia that it wasn't a complete bore. I don't think it was long enough to really justified a theatrical release either. Though as far as kids movies go this is better than the majority of crap they try to market to the young ones.

An adorable, witty movie that has something to offer to all ages. The movie is beautiful with its hand-drawn animation and an amazing voice cast to boot keeps us interested in the three short stories that Winnie the Pooh tells. When it was over, I couldn't help but want more since it only lasts around 70 minutes.

A short but fun family movie that captures the Pooh spirit that we have known and loved.

It took me some time to get over the fact that it is nothing like Vinni Pux I grew up watching (people from ex-CCCP places will know what I am saying), but soon it won me over with great mentally sick characters and truly funny jokes. I didn't like the songs or voice acting of Vinnie the Pooh (why the fuck Vinnie sounds like old pedophile?). Animation is much better than all that popular CGI crap.

A lot of the ideas are recycled from earlier Pooh tales, but it's charming nonetheless. It's Winnie the Pooh, of course it's charming. It sort of feels like a reboot.

Maybe I don't remember Winnie the Pooh well from my youth. But the movie gave the odd impression that it was meant to appeal more to adults, in a nostalgic way. It's sweet and cute but the short running time made it very forgettable.

A pleasant, charming, and playfully crafted traditional animated film with occasional bursts of wit.

5- worth experiencing, alright

My Thoughts: "The film is simply sweet, cute, funny, and charming. My niece's and nephew's loved the movie. I loved it as well. I have been such a huge fan of Winnie the Pooh ever since I was very young. I had many Winnie the Pooh toys growing up. I love all the films and the cartoon. It's a classic that never grows old. It's a film for all who love the Hundred Acre Woods."

so much fun.. ageless... comedy in its pure form

"Though less morally empowering than Tigger Movie or Piglet's Big Movie, there's still something to be said for the film's crystalline look at friendship and selflessness." - Rob Humanick

Lighthearted 2D animation the way it was first imagined, Winnie the Pooh delves into the origin of the Pooh characters with a simple and cute adaptation of several of Milne's earliest stories. Despite its incredibly brief length, Pooh packs enough substance to lend credence to nearly every frame.

A lighthearted, pleasing and surprisingly funny revival of the Pooh brand that lacks much substance and is awfully short at just 63 minutes, but more than makes up for that with its charm and wholesomeness.

Although this is an adaptation of the A.A. Milne tales first published in 1926, it unleashes an essential quality of dreaming -- and of cinema.

For pure nostalgia alone this movie is worth the price of admission. Some very, very funny moments - I was laughing harder than my 4 year old (who was entertained the whole way through... didn't even try to get out of her seat). FEAR THE BACKSON!

Occasionally funny and charming, but far too reliant on past recycled jokes and gags. And its nowhere close to feature length.

A brief lark with these much-loved Disney characters, but done with so much postmodern wit that kids can't be meant as the only audience - the traditional animation must resonate with just about anybody who enjoys a little drollness in their life.

The teat of Disney's cash cow has been milked until it bled in recent years with some truly diabolical results, but this is something of return to the gentle charm of the original short films, under the nostalgic eye of John Lasseter. Great for very little kids.
