Best movie ever!

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

I generally like animated films, but I found this one to be more like a feature-length cartoon with little to interest an adult audience. The several scenes of Tigger and Piglet falling from high places reminded me of a Road Runner cartoon, and Pooh's singing and simple missives on life--although true to the Winnie-the-Pooh franchise--seemed excessively sappy. Most of Disney's newer animated features have inside jokes, clever dialogue, and memorable songs that will help keep adults entertained while they watch with their kids. Pooh's Grand Adventure is lacking any of that. This straight-to-video movie will probably hold the attention of small children for an hour, but I would recommend parents find something else to do while their kids watch.

Pooh's Grand Adventure, while inferior to the previous installment, is still perfectly acceptable in its own right. This is the saddest Winnie the Pooh film in my memory, but is yet the most delightful because of its message and the way it shows it. The moral is even if you're not accompanied by that special someone, you have them in your heart at all times. What animated film dares tell you something as strong as Winnie the Pooh? My favorite thing that I've admired about the Pooh cartoons is the fact that they are an act of innocence and are as gentle as a feather. There is never any mention of "death" in the show, or even the slightest hint. Even if someone falls from an very high ledge or tree, they brush themselves off, and move on to the next activity.The plot is reminiscent of the latest movie installment. Christopher Robin is going back to school, but because of Pooh's desire not to hear the news he has, he doesn't tell him. Pooh wakes up to an unaccompanied tree, and no Christopher Robin in sight. Only a note and a jar of honey on Pooh's doorstep. He rounds up the gang, with the exception of Kanga and Roo, and head over to Owl's with the note and jar of honey. Owl says the note says something about Christopher Robin needs help over at School, which he mistakes for "skull." They all become braver than a bee, and stronger than they seem and go on a hunt for their friend.The sadness and tear-jerking moments flood this short but sweet special. But they aren't like a crying fit more than like a beautiful sadness. Even though things look down, the gang is optimistic about Christopher Robin's return and they keep smiling all the way through the trip.Like many Pooh specials, there isn't much to say either than they are wonderfully animated, wonderfully told, and just an all out pleasure on screen. Each character all targets a specific feeling or emotion in one's character, and together, it's like they fill everyone's set of emotions. It's beautiful beyond the simplicity and happiness it brings to children.Voiced by: Jim Cummings, Ken Sansom, John Fiedler, Paul Winchell, Peter Cullen, and Brady Bluhm. Directed by: Karl Geurs.

I'm 20 years old and still a Pooh fan. I remembered this movie as a kid so I dug it out and watched it again. Right now, I've taken writing and acting classes so I'm a pretty good judge of movies now.And this movie succeeds on every single level. It's heart warming without being sappy. It's witty and funny without being cheesy or just stupid. It teaches a message without being too obvious. The songs are catchy and well written with fitting visuals to go along with them. This is one of those movies that doesn't feel like a kid's movie as much as it does a family movie. It's appealing to all ages and can bring a smile to anyone, even during a bad day. Very few kid's movies live up to their potential but you can rest assured that Pooh's Most Grand Adventure delivers more you would expect.Bottom line, I would recommend this masterpiece to everyone. Your kids shouldn't go through childhood without seeing it at least once.

Keeping in mind that most of the crew from the original Classic are not "just around Pooh corner" this sequel could have been much more disappointing (Did I say "much"?). Disney did what they could by at least using the original voices to both Piglet and Tigger, but it appears to be just another attempt at raking in some cash. Jim Cummings shows amazing talent in his attempt to mimic the timeless voice of Sterling Holloway, however as the narrator, David Warner can't hold a candle to Sebastian Cabot. Disney could have made an extreme improvement had they chosen to follow the original technique of having it as though read from a book with chapters (showing the pages turning, etc.). Children will probably enjoy it (as is it's aim), but try not to set your hopes too high if you're over 10-12.
