Pooh's Heffalump Movie

It's been awhile since I've watched Winnie The Pooh,and I was abit unsure about watching another again when my sisters rented it out. The thing is that I loved it! It's a very cute movie with cute original characters and It has a Very nice story and I don't have a problem when watching it again. It begins where all of a sudden there's been some strange happenings in the Hundred Acre Wood and Winnie the pooh and his friends try to get to the bottom of it,only to find out that Heffalumps (Big elephants) have moved in. The rest I leave to you to find out,but overall it's cute,fun and something that you can never be too old to watch. So yeah,watch it...it's definitely something that kids as well as the rest will enjoy. PS: Note how many "cutes" I've put in,if it's more than 2 then it's worth a movie ticket.

i give this an 7 out of ten mainly because i loved the film- but not because of the actual film- but Heffalump- i LOVE Heffalump so much!!!!! and it was SO great for the movie. even so i didn't think the movie was as good. i enjoyed it but I'm not exactly about to rush out and buy it on DVD. even so it has been a long time since i have seen it so i may soon rent it out

I took my little sister to see it at the cinema and she loved every minute of it- so it is definitely a good film to keep children occupied, and also a good film for the young at heart like me.

Overall it was a petty good film.

I went and saw this movie with my five year old. He laughed at several parts, but got very bored toward the end. Honestly, I couldn't blame him. The plot is incredibly thin, even for a children's movie. There's hardly any plot at all. The songs are OK, but they feel like filler to make the movie longer.

Yes, I know it's a children's movie, but it's not impossible to make a children's movie with decent plots. My three year old girl loves Sleeping Beauty, and I can easily watch it and enjoy with her. I use a Disney example for this; I could easily invoke some of the recent Pixar films as well.

Granted, Pooh is simpler and more innocent than other children's fare, but it doesn't have to be so dead dull. There are plenty of examples of good Pooh films/videos that have real plots.

I don't want to rant against recent Disney movies (there are more than enough people who do that), but they need to get some decent writers that know how to make a plot with many layers.

All in all, this is a movie for kids. We saw it tonight and my child loved it. At one point my kid's excitement was so great that sitting was impossible. However, I am a great fan of A.A. Milne's books which are very subtle and hide a wry intelligence behind the childlike quality of its leading characters. This film was not subtle. It seems a shame that Disney cannot see the benefit of making movies from more of the stories contained in those pages, although perhaps, it doesn't have the permission to use them. I found myself wishing the theater was replaying "Winnie-the-Pooh and Tigger too", instead. The characters voices were very good. I was only really bothered by Kanga. The music, however, was twice as loud in parts than the dialog, and incongruous to the film.

As for the story, it was a bit preachy and militant in tone. Overall, I was disappointed, but I would go again just to see the same excitement on my child's face.

I liked Lumpy's laugh....

At 18, you may think I am a little old to be watching this movie, but as a lover of the Winnie the Pooh characters I thought why not? So I watched Pooh's Heffalump Movie and was delighted by it. It is so charming, sweet and endearing and has a lot of heart too. Plenty of funny and touching moments here too. It isn't as good as the 1977 movie or the 80s TV show, but it is still a delightful movie, with enough charm for especially children. Adults may complain there aren't enough jokes for them, but if they see the movie they will probably be content by their child's happy smile as they watch it and by the charm the film has.

The film is very short, but it moves very quickly and doesn't feel boring. The story is also very simple, but it is effective and innocent with a nice message that I actually didn't find preachy. The animation is lovely, and the music while not the best in the world is still delightful and serves its purpose very well. Even the dialogue had some nice moments- I smiled and I was moved too. The characters are a delight, especially Lumpy who is so cute and endearing I fell in love with him the very first moment I set eyes on him. And the voice acting is excellent. Overall, charming and delightful. 9/10 Bethany Cox
