Advantages: Gentle film with a good message Disadvantages: It isn't the traditional Winnie the Pooh
...under the covers to watch Winnie the Pooh's Heffalump movie on the Disney channel. I am a big fan of the original Pooh bear stories and characters and not overly impressed with the updated, Americanised version however, I thought my boy would love it.
After watching the film, I knew instantly I had to review it for ciao readers today. Here's why:- Director: Frank Nissen
Screen Writers: Brian Hohfield and Evan Spiliotopoulos
Genre: Children's animation
... ...keep that to myself)
Winnie the Pooh - Jim Cummings
Pooh is s soft as the fluff he is stuffed with and although he is not the brightest of the animals in the forest, he is kind and the happiness of his friends is Pooh's main concern.
Pooh responsible for getting his friends and himself lost while they set out to capture the Heffalump by eating the trail of Jellybeans Piglet leaves leading back home.
Tigger - Also Jim Cummings
Tigger is of course ...

Advantages: Good storyline, entertaining Disadvantages: None
...a child. My friend loves Winnie the Pooh so I agreed to go and see it with her (she's in her 30s by the way!) So off we went, popcorn in hand to sit with a room full of under-eights with parents in tow.
********************
The film was nice and colourful, full of entertaining characters as well as Pooh, Tigger, Eore and Piglet. The storyline had a good moral stance to it as well as being humerous and interesting. Basically, the story is about ... ...coming from the forest which they believe belongs to a monster called a Heffalump. An event occurs which leads Pooh and friends to decide to go into the forest and capture the Heffalump. Anyway, as you've probably guessed the Heffalump isn't a monster but is in fact a blue baby elephant who lives there with his mother.
The film centres on the relationship between Roo(the baby kangaroo and friend of Pooh) and the Heffalump. How Roo overcomes his ...

Advantages: Great morals Disadvantages: Somewhat predicatable (but this is of course not a worry for children)
...just like in all the Winnie the Pooh films, and they guarantee at least a smile if not a great laugh. The story line is not too obvious for children. It is nice to see Roo (and a little bit of Piglet) as a focus in this film as he isn't normaly much of starring role in the Pooh films; so it is good for those who have Piglet down as their favourite character :)
Extras: A great little hide and seek game to play, backstage feature, recipe
Subtitles: ...

Advantages: Entertains and teaches children that even those who seem different can be just like them Disadvantages: Story line a little bit predictable
This should apeal to children up to about age 10 and also to adults. At about an hour long, it should be short enough for younger children. Special features of the DVD include a hide and seek game with Roo and a Heffalump and a recipe for some special Heffalump Biscuits.
The story starts with some strange noises and the sound of some apparently large and scary creatures. The residents of the hundred acre wood meet up to decide what to do about it. ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of Winnie The Pooh - Pooh's Heffalump Movie (Animated) (DVD)
Advantages: Great kids film Disadvantages: short, not much pooh in it
my son is 2 and he loves this movie but its only about 40 minutes long and pooh is only in it for a very short time and hes not really a main character, Roo is. The voice of the heffalump is pretty cute though when hes singing his lumpy song lol. I really liked the storyline, Roos friends dont think hes old enough to catch a heffalump then he shows them they were wrong. The way the other characters speak to Roo at the start is like they arnt even ... ...of the "heffalump expedition" and they call them friends? And why do they make eeyore out to be really dumb and treat him like a slave carrying all there things for them. It wasnt worth the £18 i spent on it, maybe if it was a little longer and pooh was more involved in his movie ...
