Dale R This movie was created by the television division of Walt Disney Animation and is the series finale of The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. In this film the 100 acre wood characters are looking for Christopher Robin and must overcome their insecurities along the way. Like the television show, there are things missing in this movie, such as the interactions with the narrator and words in the book. Kanga and Roo are also not present and I did miss them. The target demographic is younger than the 1977 film and there is less humor for adults. There is also no suspense as the audience knows where Christopher Robin is the whole time. There are a few Pooh-isms and a few giggles to be had. If you enjoyed the television cartoon or Pooh in general, this might be worth checking out. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/07/24 Full Review Liam D It has the same breezy and cute charm like in every Winnie The Pooh movie but also has some challenging themes for kids Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/17/24 Full Review Cody W I had a really fun time watching POOH'S GRAND ADVENTURE. It's fun, lovable, adventurous, and really exciting. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Already over 25 years old and I still have such grand memories of this I grew up with Winnie the Pooh watching the various episodes even the classic 1970s film I remember having this vhs and watching it endlessly It hit close to my heart with its larger story and simple emotions not just the animation and memorable characters Critics to my shock didn't really like it when it came out which I think is kinda unfair, this is severely underrated in many respects Winnie the Pooh and his best friend Christopher Robin enjoy their time together as they usually do but one day he tells Pooh Bear he may not be around forever Pooh falls asleep into the next day when autumn starts and finds a honey pot outside his home unaware that a note is attached The note says Christopher Robin is at school but everyone else including Pooh doesn't know that; after a misunderstood translation from Owl Pooh, Rabbit, Piglet, Tigger, and Eeyore set out to find him They think he's trapped at Skull and in mortal danger So the film has our animal friends venture beyond the Hundred Acre Wood while in the process learn something about themselves being brave, smart, strong etc. The film isn't perfect; after all it is only over an hour and 19 min long It's got really good songs though and very deep lines Some funny slapstick to go with The art style matches the books from way back The payoff really overshadows everything yet it's one of the better Winnie the Pooh flicks despite some manipulative ness A bit heavy handed at the beginning but the imagination is handled very well The biggest adventures seem like the smallest ones and one friend can't exist without the each other in their lives We will always be with one another no matter what or no matter when Solidly animated, short, harmless, and children and parents will adore it from beginning to end Winnie the Pooh is still so timeless to this day and this movie touches on the psychological as well as imaginative aspects we can all grasp onto Lots of simple delights and unexpected charm Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/07/23 Full Review Elvis D Este entrega de la saga de Winnie Pooh genera distintas sensaciones. Es una película con un guion que parece orientado más al drama psicológico, lo cual la hace algo pesada y tediosa para ser una película infantil, pero las canciones y sus tiernos personajes hacen que uno siga manteniendo los ojos en pantalla. Esta descabellada aventura se desata por un pobre malentendido, pero los personajes no son fáciles de despreciar por su inocencia ingenua. Aquí es más evidente que Winnie y sus amigos son como niños, mientras Christopher Robin es su figura paternal. Otra pista de ello es lo que sucede en la aventura, ya que todo parece transcurrir en la imaginación de Winnie Pooh y sus amigos cuando al final se descubre que muchas de las situaciones peligrosas solo fueron producto de la imaginación de los personajes. Lo interesante de este film es su manera como todo lo que sucede se asemeja a la imaginación de un niño, ya que parece jugar con la psicología infantil. No es una película animada para cualquiera, ya que algunos la pueden encontrar tediosa y aburrida, pero la ternura y dulzura de los personajes hacen que uno no resista seguir acompañándolos en esta aventura. Mi calificación para esta película es un 8/10. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/13/23 Full Review Cyrus K Why do people not like this movie, it's fine! Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/08/22 Full Review Read all reviews
