Milne's famous stuffed bear and his pals learn something about acceptance and understanding when a new animal comes to the Hundred Acre Woods in this animated comedy. When Winnie the Pooh (voice of Jim Cummings) hears a strange noise in the woods, he and his friends are convinced that the dreaded Heffalump -- a critter not unlike an elephant -- has come to the woods to do them harm. Pooh, Piglet (voice of John Fiedler), and Tigger (also voiced by Cummings) set out to capture the fearsome beast, but Roo (voice of Jimmy Bennett), who is told he's too small to join the search party, meets Lumpy the Heffalump face to face and discovers he's not the bad guy he's been made out to be. Pooh's Heffalump Movie features four new songs from singer and songwriter Carly Simon. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Amy Simmons, Time Out
Lessons are duly learnt about fear of the unknown, and it's a sweet enough tale, if lacking in tension.
-
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul), Houston Chronicle
As comforting and warm as a tummy-full of oatmeal.
-
Billy Heller, New York Post
While kids older than 8 may be too jaded to sit through this cute flick, at just over an hour, it may be the perfect fit for first-time filmgoers.
-
Jennie Punter, Globe and Mail
A kind of family fare that is rare on the big screen these days.
-
Jen Chaney, Washington Post
Makes a fine first moviegoing experience for tots.
