Winnie the Pooh

Review of WINNIE THE POOH
by Mark Kennedy on Wednesday, July 13, 2011  ·
Saw the new Walt Disney movie Winnie the Pooh tonight. First things first, I had planned all sorts of sentences using the word Pooh to make fun of the movie. In actuality I enjoyed this movie greatly. It brings back all the childhood memories I have of the Winnie the Pooh movies that I watched. Even the opening with the song and animation was simular. Songs were mostly sung by the singer Zooey Deschanel and she did a wonderful job. In fact the mucis in the movie is all well done. I noticed the crowd which was mainly on the younger side laughed at all the word jokes and of course the slapstick antics of Pooh and his friends in the 100 acre wood. John Cleese takes on the voice of the narrater, the voice I remember as Sebastan Cabot. He does an excellent job. The gag of Pooh and his friends being in an actual book and walking on words gets old the 4th or 5th time it happens but Disney animators pull off the job and it is enjoyable. The movie is only 1 hour long so do not worry about attention spans. There is a short cartoon before the feature about Nessie the Loch Ness Monster. Has a good message for the kiddos.
Lastly...stay through the credits, there is a short cut scene that you might want to watch. Credits are not boring either as Pooh and his friends play with in the words.
Winnie the Pooh..go see it with someone young. It will not dissapoint.
