Winnie the Pooh review

Winnie the Pooh

*** (out of four)

Includes the voices of Jim Cummings, Tom Kenny, Craig Ferguson and John Cleese. Directed by Stephen J. Anderson and Don Hall. Approximately 63 minutes. Playing in some theaters. Rated G.

``Winnie the Pooh is a joyful and visually stunning animated film. It's also got a brisk running time of 63 minutes. It's good fun for the whole family.

Adapted from the popular children's books by A.A. Milne, the story in ``Winnie the Pooh'' involves Winnie the Pooh (voiced by Jim Cummings), Rabbit (voiced by Tom Kenny), Owl (voiced by Craig Ferguson), Piglet (voiced by Travis Oates), Roo (voiced by Wyatt Dean Hall), Kanga (voiced by Kristen Anderson-Lopez) and Tigger (also voiced by Jim Cummings) trying to find a new tail for the depressed donkey Eeyore (voiced by Bud Luckley). They also try and catch the Backson, a creature who they think kidnapped their friend Christopher Robin (Jack Boutler).

I would like to say again that this is a visually stunning film. The hand-drawn animation looks fantastic. It's also a funny movie.

If you have read my review and think that this sounds like a good movie, I would advise you not to watch the trailer. It's not a very good trailer and it might make you not want to see this movie. However, it's your decision.
