Brave Lil Roo's Heffalump Movie, 28 April 2005

Author: lampillar from United States

This movie was the perfect first movie to bring our 3 and a half yr old daughter! It had a wonderful lesson for all of us: don't be judgmental about things we don't yet know.

There is a most tender moment between Roo and Kanga, which is coupled with a heartbreakingly sweet song, sung mostly by Carly Simon. (We bought the CD and it gets a lot of playtime.) Little Roo was courageous and wise - even seeking his parent's help when he couldn't solve a serious problem on his own. Pooh and the gang are featured throughout but are not the 'stars'. Roo plays a charming character growing up just a little bit, and my daughter related to him very well.

NOTE, however, there is a scene that can be seen as a little scary for little ones. My daughter ended up sitting on my husband's lap for security about half way through the film, and stayed there through the end. Afterwards we talked about it a little bit and she hasn't had any bad dreams that we know of. All in all, a new generation of Hundred Acre Wood movies has begun, and so has a new fan base! SEE IT!

Definition of "Cute Classic", 1 January 2007

Author: koolnut from Tonga

It's been awhile since I've watched Winnie The Pooh,and I was abit unsure about watching another again when my sisters rented it out. The thing is that I loved it! It's a very cute movie with cute original characters and It has a Very nice story and I don't have a problem when watching it again. It begins where all of a sudden there's been some strange happenings in the Hundred Acre Wood and Winnie the pooh and his friends try to get to the bottom of it,only to find out that Heffalumps (Big elephants) have moved in. The rest I leave to you to find out,but overall it's cute,fun and something that you can never be too old to watch. So yeah,watch it...it's definitely something that kids as well as the rest will enjoy. PS: Note how many "cutes" I've put in,if it's more than 2 then it's worth a movie ticket.

Meet Lumpy, One of The Cutest Member of the 'Elephant' Family, 4 May 2010
Author: Jizdenky from Fraggle Rock

I've rarely liked most of the Disney spinoffs and sequels but to me the 'Winnie the Pooh' sequels are an exception. I've only seen the delightful 'Piglet Movie' and now I've had the joy to watch 'Pooh's Heffalump Movie'. I miss the handdrawn Disney movies nowadays and it is great to see that Disney still makes such quality stuff even though that's rare thanks to nonsense like 'High School Musical' dominating the franchise. In 'Pooh's Heffelump Movie', the animation is vivacious as ever but where it succeeds most is with its adorable characters who have maintained their essence and consistency. The whole gang, that is Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Kanga, Rabbit, Roo and Iyor are here. The comic situations are hilarious and the story is fun too. It has heart and is told in an endearing way that will capture children's attention (yes, there is a lesson to be learned too) but adults can enjoy it just as much with their kids. The new character, Lumpy, has got to be one of the cutest 'member' of the elephant family. But, Lumpy isn't merely some cute caricature. He is brilliantly written and voiced as a real character, that of a curious playful child seeking for adventure with a new friend. The score is splendid and it is always a pleasure to hear Carly Simon's beautiful voice. This little movie is neatly packed in a solid 75 minutes but it doesn't feel rushed at all. One of the last few underrated little gems of Disney.

pooh's heffalump movie, 13 December 2005

Author: jeperson from United States

First off I am going to say that I am not a fan of Pooh. I am a HUGE Disney fan, and I work in a video rental store, so I decided to go ahead and watch the movie one day while I was working.

I LOVED it!!!!

This is the best thing that happened to pooh in a long time. Keep in mind I am in my 20's and I now a stuffed Lumpy because he's just great!

I made everyone at work watch it and they agreed with me it's got a good story that makes you feel like a kid again and the character's are great. At one point one of my male co-workers had the sniffles. I think that everyone who likes Disney movies or cartoons in general should watch this film.

Disney I give you two thumbs up!!

it's all in the music score, 15 July 2005

Author: ptb-8 from Australia

What a lovely storybook film...with a truly beautiful musical score by Joel MeNeely is basically my adult opinion...as I was enchanted by the music score more than anything else...and everything else is so easy to enjoy..I know Carly Simon wrote the songs (and they were nice...!) but the actual score was more enjoyable. My 4 year companion stayed in his seat and laughed (as I did) at Roo and Rabbit's antics especially. This neat and clean 68 minute Disney pic is exactly what I was ready to enjoy but was quite surprised at how gently funny and enchanting it was. If I had a cinema (still) I would have asked Disney to double it for me with DUMBO and sold all seats for $5 to delighted adults who would have brought every kid they knew so we could have a hilarious elephant afternoon.

Such a sweet film, 17 April 2012

Author: A56T from United Kingdom

Winnie The Pooh films are timeless and although this one wasn't a huge hit it is well worth watching.

Full of heart and humour this film moves along at a quick pace and the story is one that can teach children and their parents a lovely lesson about friendship, loyalty and judgement.

The little boy who voices Lumpy is a star and makes his character so adorable you just feel for him. All the usual Winnie The Pooh voice actors return as well and do their iconic roles justice.

So go and rent/buy this film for your little one and sit back and enjoy a lovely nostalgic film full of moments only Disney can produce.

I was never really a Winnie the Pooh fan, 25 February 2011

Author: neenahhh

I did kind of grow up around it. I saw it here and there, but was never really actually INVOLVED with it. I do remember a few intros of the TV adaptions. "Pooh Bear, Winnie the Pooh Bear!" And I did watch The Tigger Movie, though! I think that was one of the VHS's that I kept on rewinding and rewatching back when I was younger. But aside from that, I never really LOVED Winnie the Pooh. I guess I just never really found the cast endearing or lovable as everyone thinks they are. I kind of found them boring and not at all interesting. Sorry.

But this was a cute movie. I guess I would have enjoyed this more so if I were younger. Lumpy is a Heffalump. A stranger to the Hundred Acre Woods gang. Roo befriends him and they're off doing stuff little children do.

The music was lovely. Especially the songs that Lumpy and Roo had together. WE STAAAAND, SHOULDER TO SHOULDER! Yeah. That stuck with me. Also the song Kanga sang to Roo. Such a sweet mother-child song.

I loved Lumpy! He was so cute! His randomness, his songs, his attitude, his accent, his laugh- everything was adorable! I guess that's why I enjoyed this movie. Makes me want to have a Lumpy stuffed toy, even if I don't usually do stuffed toys.

The ending was great. It gave me shivers, even if I wasn't expecting it to since I wasn't really paying attention while watching it. I think this movie should have been called 'Roo's Heffalump Movie'. Why does Pooh have to get credit for everything? As my title stated, I was never really a Winnie the Pooh fan, but I liked this movie. That must be saying something about it. This one is a great movie to watch with your kids. Give it a shot.

Really sweet and endearing... I loved this!, 28 June 2010

Author: TheLittleSongbird from United Kingdom

At 18, you may think I am a little old to be watching this movie, but as a lover of the Winnie the Pooh characters I thought why not? So I watched Pooh's Heffalump Movie and was delighted by it. It is so charming, sweet and endearing and has a lot of heart too. Plenty of funny and touching moments here too. It isn't as good as the 1977 movie or the 80s TV show, but it is still a delightful movie, with enough charm for especially children. Adults may complain there aren't enough jokes for them, but if they see the movie they will probably be content by their child's happy smile as they watch it and by the charm the film has.

The film is very short, but it moves very quickly and doesn't feel boring. The story is also very simple, but it is effective and innocent with a nice message that I actually didn't find preachy. The animation is lovely, and the music while not the best in the world is still delightful and serves its purpose very well. Even the dialogue had some nice moments- I smiled and I was moved too. The characters are a delight, especially Lumpy who is so cute and endearing I fell in love with him the very first moment I set eyes on him. And the voice acting is excellent. Overall, charming and delightful. 9/10 Bethany Cox

The cutest movie I have ever seen!, 16 February 2007
Author: junkandmurder from United States

I saw this movie for the first time yesterday. I'm not a mushy kind of person by any means and there are few things that just melt my heart, but this movie did it. The kid that did the voice of Lumpy the Heffalump has the most adorable voice and a giggle that just captures your heart. I think the songs are phenomenal and having grown up with the friends of the Hundred Acre Wood, they're still doing a fantastic job. I'm glad after all these years we finally got to meet a Heffalump and learn they're not as scary as Pooh and his friends have thought they were. This movie was just absolutely phenomenal (although I do agree there was nowhere nearly enough Eeyore), and it's absolutely heart capturing. I've already watched it abut five or six times since yesterday. I hope to see more Lumpy movies and continue to hear Kyle Stanger doing his voice. I highly recommend Pooh's Heffalump Movie for any one age 1 to 101.
