For a lower budget TV film, I was really surprised. When it started, it looked like a school video made to show kids why drugs are bad. I wasn't sure which way this was going to go when I put it on Netflix, but I had a feeling Denzel was gonna pull through! He's Denzel Washington for goodness sake! Honestly, if it weren't for him, this would have been a bit of a boring film. There is some cliché stuff in there and the quality is not too great, but with a good, grounded story, competent acting in the majority of the cast, and Denzel's skills, it's really a good movie. It's great to see him so young and so talented, before the fame. He really put his all into every performance, even when he wasn't making the big bucks. If you're into inspirational stories, films about education, or a Denzel fan, definitely watch it. You won't be disappointed.

I'm a 27 year old man from New York. I enjoy lots of adult material from music with parental advisory stickers and gangster flicks to martial arts and video games such as God of War. With that being said, this movie holds such a dear place in my heart that I don't believe it can or will ever be forgotten. These stories of Winnie the Pooh are simply classic, so endearing, even thought provoking. The vibrant colors and personalities are so engaging. Kudos to the artists and animators for illustrating such fantastic work. By the way, I love the fact that the characters are completely aware that they are fictional, literary characters, though they're fully immersed in their own world. You have to see how it plays out. As you can already tell, I don't want to give too much away. The stories are by no means epic in any way, but it suits the film perfectly.

The hundred acre wood is a wonderful, whimsical place. There are no villains and there is no violence. The heroes are characters who go out of their way to help friends and neighbors in times of need. There is no vanquishing enemies and rescuing princesses. There are conflicts between characters, but they learn that it's best to compromise and be humble to resolve a situation. When promises are made, they are to be kept, even if it's difficult or involves some sacrifice. Very deep and thought provoking material indeed. Just consider how far we would all get if we learned to live by such principles.

The lessons to be learned here about values and love and friendship are so simple, but deep when you think about it. I'm completely serious. It's simple and innocent enough for children to appreciate, but adults can appreciate it on a whole other level. The ending or conclusion is very warm and sincere, and also very thought provoking for adults. It's about moving on and having to leave old simple ways behind, but not to forget them and still appreciate our childhood fantasies, innocence and the simple life. It brings tears to my eyes. I find it very moving. The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh reminds us of the innocence and simplicity that so many of us have long forgotten. It's a collection of great stories for children without being so in your face geared towards them that it comes across as corny, simple and uninteresting for older viewers. It is truly a masterpiece of animated family fiction, and I recommend it to anyone and everyone.
