2011's Winnie the Pooh is a wonderful new adventure. Truly capturing a nostalgia and style that no longer is seen in wide releases, the film is a breath of fresh air and is a golden gem against Disney's modern filmography.

The tale of the yellow silly bear and his teddy friends is as hollow as an empty honey pot. [Full review in Spanish]

The film is narrated beautifully by John Cleese.

| Original Score: 3.5/4.0 | Sep 27, 2020

A calm, slower paced, fun film that should charm the socks off families while entertaining them in a unique way, without all the bells and whistles of CGI and 3D.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 14, 2020

I admit Winnie the Pooh wasn't really made for me but I can appreciate a film made with TLC outside of my target demographic.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Feb 6, 2019

["Winnie the Pooh"] is rebelliously pleasant, seditiously low-key and blessedly loyal to the spirit, look and tone of Milne's stories, Ernest H. Shepard's book illustrations and its beloved '60s short films.

The writers and directors make it work by never losing sight of the spirit of the characters, world, and Milne: imagination, innocence, and heaps of heart.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Feb 1, 2012

It's refreshing and invigorating to watch a new animated picture where we can still see the penciled-in sketches of the characters' eyebrows and wind-ruffled clothing.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 3, 2012

A back-to-basics charmer evoking the Pooh short films from the '60s and '70s. [Blu-ray]

At 63 minutes, the film is not too long, not too short, but just right.

As props and as emblems, as metaphors and things, the words are the basis of friendship, the means to understanding and communication and sharing.

One of the film's new songs really sums it up: "Everything is honey and life is sweet."

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 2, 2011

As childlike and as innocent as the audience it hopes to attract

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 1, 2011

These fourth wall breaking techniques never feel like meta intrusions on the material but like a child's interaction with a parent reading the tales.

| Original Score: B- | Aug 9, 2011
