Winnie the Pooh: Miel y sangre. Parte 2

Christopher Robin is the main protagonist, that already sets itself apart from the first film, and It was a fun time. They even added more characters. Another glaring issue was the narrator, it just seemed so uninteresting and uninspiring. But these problems have all brushed aside, and it seems much improved here. Maybe I did take the first film too seriously for it's own good, but it isn't a good film. Blood and Honey 2? Yeah, well maybe. So it's time to sit down and talk, about Winnie-The-Pooh 2:Blood and Honey, let's get into the review.

First off it seems more accurate to the beloved childhood toys, where Christopher lives in Ashdown and near the forrest. There's some beutiful imagery of the Town, and there's even a mystery surrounding Christopher's brothers disappearance. Creating for a nice mystery and an interesting scene. Which also shows a highlight in the writing, it's much better. The Character depth is much stronger. Thus making for a more entertaining and exciting watch.

Tigger, Pooh and Friends re-unite. For a chilling experience. Right from the start they take down a few girls in a Caravan. And now they are aiming to take down all of Ashdown and it's citizens but who will stop them, will it be Christopher Robin, or an armed group. No, It'll just be the Police. Who don't look so inept. In most Horror movies the police are played down and aren't very believable, here they seem to be much better. Even trying to search for the Killers. And Tigger using an Iconic quote, "That's my line" sends shivers down anyone's spine.

Christopher has a Job, and his family are heavily involved in the film, this is a good thing because it feels more developed and spends time with our Character in his own universe. His friends who also try to stop Tigger, the flying sourcer (Bird), and Pooh and they do alot of damage to one of his friends. Whilst Robin is now a nurse. And doesn't really have help, apart from the person who talks to him about his horrifying situation.

The good thing about this film is his Brothers story, which is quickly touched upon, it's not a main focus on the film but it does give us some insight on the character of Robin and his parents. And a tragic accident that happened that day, but still pops up in his mind every know and then.

Pooh returns to Christopher's home, where his parents are then killed. The sister, still remains to be alive. It was a strange decision by Pooh. But he does take down the parents, just as Robin's realisation takes him slower to get down to his parent's. And the good thing about this is it raises the stakes, and the emotional impact. The party then becomes a Blood bath. Which creates for an entertaining last half an hour of the film.

The ending is maybe slightly cheap, but I actually enjoyed the bond between the siblings, it more or less felt like a fitting conclusion to the whole family bond presented in the film. And it ends the film on a sweet end to a quite horrific turn of events in 2Hrs and 50 Minutes almost, if you count these two Movies combined. The Problems still the weak character writing, but it isn't as bad here. The costumes do look fine. Underatted, I do like the creature masks. Very cool and stylish.

Would I recommend this film?

Only If your really into your Horror, otherwise you can probably just skip it. 5/10.

While I certainly wasn't a fan of the 2023 movie "Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey", I still sat down to watch the sequel "Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2", simply because I had the opportunity to do so, plus it as a movie that I hadn't already seen.

Needless to say, that given my lack of being impressed with the predecessor, then I wasn't really harboring any grand expectations to writers Rhys Frake-Waterfield and Matt Leslie. But still, I opted to give them the benefit of the doubt. Perhaps the sequel would prove better than the 2023 predecessor.

Luckily "Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2" did prove better than its predecessor. There was a bit more elaborate and thought through script and storyline to this sequel. And it was a generally more wholesome and enjoyable storyline that they had put together. So I was definitely genuinely surprised with the outcome of this 2024 sequel.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in this movie. But I will say that they acting performances were actually fair. Sure, this wasn't Shakespearian theater, nor were I expecting it to be. But for a movie of this type, it was actually good enough acting performances being put on by the cast ensemble.

How tacky is it when movie makers put footage from their first movie on a TV in the sequel and passing it off as something a character in the movie was watching? Yeah, that happened in this movie, and it was just cringeworthy.

Visually then "Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2" definitely was good. There were a good amount of violence, blood, gore and mayhem throughout the course of the 98 minutes that the movie ran for. And that certainly was good for a seasoned gorehound such as myself.

The production level in the movie was really good, and it was showing on the screen.

My rating of "Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2" lands on a five out of ten stars.

Winnie The Pooh: Blood And Honey II is a huge improvement in every single way. Obviously, this one has a bigger budget (around 330k in comparison to the meagre 50k for the original) but it really does show. For starters, the creatures no longer look like they are just Halloween masks, they actually do resemble actual hybrid creatures with proper movements thanks to the excellent prosthetics. The acting has massively improved too, with Scott Chambers the new Christopher Robin (he is a standout I must say), Tallulah Evans is great too, and also a turn from established British actor, Simon Callow. There's also a decent story here now as well. The team behind the original have joined up with Matt Leslie, who wrote the brilliant Summer Of '84 and created a very interesting premise for the Pooh universe to expand and bring in further characters for the upcoming Poohniverse which has recently been teased!

There's a hell of a lot crammed in to the 85 minute run time. An interesting story, but there's a lot of fun too! Great set pieces, include a rave scene in which Pooh and friends slice and dice their way through a host of party goers. There's a lot of gore here too, mostly practical, but a bit of CGI too (probably down to the still relatively low budget).

All in all, I had a great time with this. The team need praise for actually showing resilience to come back from the pounding they took from the first one to actually learn from the criticism and come back to make something that is as good as this.

Horror fans should enjoy this, and I'd advise trying to see it in a cinema with like-minded fans for the best experience!

This is by no stretch of the imagination the best horror film ever made, but it's also by no stretch of the imagination the worst horror film ever made. If you enjoy slasher horror films, you will definitely get a kick out of this (think Saw, I Spit On Your Grave, Hostel- or anything by Eli Roth really, if you enjoy those, check this out). It includes a couple of twists that keep the story engaging enough for the run time, and it avoids following the same formula as the first film. There are a couple of comedic lines/scenes, as is to be expected. However, it's mostly an on par slasher horror film, that uses its exisiting characters creatively, and the new ones sparingly to keep them interesting. The writing, directing and acting is not Oscar worthy, but it is definitely better than a lot of what is being put out right now. Despite the amusing and silly premise of Winnie the Pooh slaughtering people, this film is surprisingly entertaining. It delivers on what it promises, quality time with your mates without bending the mind! If you grab a couple beers, I'm sure you won't hate this. Just remember to appreciate it for what it is. It's not trying to win awards. It's trying to entertain you.

First of all, all the 1 out 10 scores and people saying its worse than the 1st are REVIEW BOMBERS!

Right through, im glad movies like this exist. Not cause its a masterpiece (not even close) but its refreshing to see regular peoples ideas with IPs do a 180, this is is a movie that should have never existed, yet it does!

How does this movie feel?

Imagine driving home at 10pm, its rainy and you see a Video Store, you enter and in the back of this dim litted area you see a DVD with no artwork, just a paper with sharpie written "Winne The Pooh: Blood & Honey 2" you rent it cause of curiosity, you watch it in your apartment that night and think "what did I just watch?, is this real?" You talk about it the next day and no one knows what the heck you are talking about. The next day that video store is gone.

Its just...an odd experience that makes you feel you are watching something no one else knows about.

Its watchable for that! Not awful, but maybe if they dedicated at least one more year on the script this could have been really good.

Its more good than it is bad but still not where I know they want to bring thos, I see the vision getting closer, keep going guys. Bring back Eeyore for the 3rd!
