Reviews
StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
utgard14 Christmas special with Winnie the Pooh and his friends. It's a lovely, pleasant, cartoon. A very cute story that will put a smile on most faces. The main plot is about Pooh and friends writing to Santa giving him their wishlist for Christmas. What each of them wants is fun. Pooh tries to hand deliver the letter to the North Pole but doesn't make it. Everybody learns a valuable lesson about what's really important at Christmas. It's a nice Christmas story. Not one of the greats but enjoyable. Tigger, Piglet, Rabbit, Gopher, Eeyore are all here. Tigger gets the best lines, as usual. If you like Winnie the Pooh you'll like this cartoon. Give it a shot.
breakdownthatfilm-blogspot-com Winnie the Pooh is a Disney character that can not get a story wrong. His ability to make the audience giggle with joy over some of the silliest things is a powerful trait that some other characters don't seem to have enough of. The story of this short is quite simple. Pooh and his friends make a wish list with Christopher Robin to send to Santa. After making up the list, Pooh realizes he didn't put in anything for himself. Then on top of that, he notices that it's Christmas Eve once he starts adding his wish in. In a rush, he sends the letter on its way, only to have the winds change on him and the letter never sent. When he discovers this, he decides to take it into his own hands to personally deliver his friends their wanted gifts. He does this by dressing up as Santa and doing all kinds of goofy things.Some of the gifts Pooh brings to his friends are also very funny. All of which the audience gets great reactions from Rabbit, Eeyore and Tigger. Not to mention that Piglet is his feeble solo reindeer. The musical score by Steve Nelson was cute and a good listening experience as well. Still can't give the special a full score because it is not an original feature. Plus it was only 25 minutes to boot.It's an adorable little holiday special for any Winnie the Pooh lover. Just don't expect a real in-depth story.
Michael_Elliott Winnie the Pooh & Christmas Too (1991) *** (out of 4) Cute animated film starts off with Pooh, Christopher Robin, Rabbit, Tigger and Eeyore filling out their lists for Santa. The group sends the letter but soon Pooh realizes that he forgot to put anything down so they track the letter down and make sure it's not sent but by doing this it means the letter won't hit Santa in time. With nothing left to do and wanting to please his friends, Pooh dresses as Santa and plans on getting them their gifts. WINNIE THE POOH & Christmas TOO isn't going to make you forget the classic holiday films out there but if you're a fan of the gang then you should have a good time. The story itself is a pretty good one that allows some nice laughs and a cute adventure. I think the strongest character here is without question TIgger who really gets to shine in his few scenes. Pooh dressed up as Santa also works fairly well and of course there's that certain message for children watching the film. The animation is pretty good and the voice work is also very nice. At just around 22-minutes the film flies by without any slow spots.
Shawn Watson As usual, there's not much in this Winnie the Pooh adventure for adults and the story is very, very simple. I like Disney's incarnation of this universe (far removed from AA Milne's world), but the TV series is the best way to enjoy it.This 1991 Xmas Special is introduced by the notorious Michael Eisner before quickly setting up a threadbare plot involving Christopher Robin sending a letter to Santa Claus for himself and his animal friends. Hardly exciting stuff but pleasant and intermittently funny nonetheless, Hundred Acre Wood also looks lovely covered in snow.A nice effort, but hardly one you're likely to remember.
