Ritorno al Bosco dei 100 Acri

This was the first movie in ages where they did not focus on a romantic relationship but rather exploring relationships between friendship and family. Though, I do believe that the movie isn't suiting for very young viewers. As it might seem boring to them or rather the message conveyed isn't about them. Christopher Robin forgets about being happy due to his workaholic nature, this could really relate more to high school, college or working people. But, overall it's a great movie! It's great for laughs, reminiscing and a little tears

I'm a 53 y old married man, and I saw this film on Monday with my wife. I went back to see it AGAIN on Tuesday, I loved it so much. Also, I teared up so badly on the first viewing, I needed a second fix to catch the parts I missed! Beautifully filmed, this is a must see for any adult still in touch with their inner "Christopher Robin". The scenes of Ewan McGregor sitting with Pooh on a log overlooking Ashdown Forest will stay with me forever (and I need a hankie now, just thinking about it!)

10/10 is not enough!

Christopher Robin leaves behind Hundred Acre Wood for boarding school. Life grows tough. As an adult, he (Ewan McGregor) marries Evelyn (Hayley Atwell) and goes off to war. He returns to work in middle management in a luggage company. They have daughter Madeline. One day, Winnie the Pooh can't find his friends and decides to search for Christopher for help.

The best aspect of this is the comedy duo of Ewan McGregor and a teddy bear. Madeline and the gang is just as fun. I find myself loving Pooh more than ever. It is endearing and hilarious. The darker stuff may be too dark by comparison. Quite frankly, the movie should have followed Pooh instead of Christopher. There isn't anything in Christopher's life that is hard to quickly reveal during their reunion on the park benches. There is a similar movie in the Peter Pan franchise called Hook. The difference there is that Peter Pan became angry and bitter. In this movie, Christopher remains Christopher inside. He's still trying to be good although he's sadden by the weight of his life. I would cut out one scene where Christopher gets angry at Pooh. Otherwise, Ewan does a great job. About the ending, there is something unnecessary and too cute about solving his work problem with a wise Pooh saying. Finding Madeline is a good enough climax which could wrap up with a sentimental ending. This is funnier than I expected and would have been more appealing without some of the darker scenes.

This movie is beautifully written and makes you truly realize what's important in life. I'm 32 and in a job that is sucking the life out of me currently. It's truly not fair for my son and my wife to have to deal with the stressed out, grump I've become. I've already been thinking about a career change to get back the "old me" and it sounds corny, but this movie was a sign to get back to the old me - the happier me. Money and a career is great, but family and friends are so much more important. We've got one shot at this life. Maybe it's time for me to look in the mirror!

Wonderful movie with gorgeous cinematography perfect for children and adults alike. Sweet as honey and will tug at your heartstrings in an unexpected way. You may shed a tear or 2
