The movie's major shame -- that it is a stealth remake of the (much inferior) "Pooh's Grand Adventure" from 1997 rather than an original story -- is the only complaint I have. Entertaining, charming, memorable, cosy, this is everything I want in a Winnie the Pooh film.

Eeyore needs a new tail.

As good as the original shorts - not quite as pure and innocent (they even force in some (not-too-obtrusive) pop culture references), but hilarious. The best movie to come out since Wall-E.

An orphan is taken to the future by a boy with his parents' time machine.

Manic beyond all reason, and hilarious. One of those surprise movies that has no business being as good as it is.
