Description
Straight from the theaters, it’s a grand scale animated feature that is as exciting as it is charming, where friendship, understanding, and adventure abound as Winnie the Pooh and his friends learn that things are not always as they appear. A quiet day in the Hundred Acre Wood quickly grows mysterious when a strange sound echoes through the trees — a sound that can only be . . . a Heffalump! While the friends devise, Roo sets off into the Wood and discovers a Heffalump nam… More >>
My wife, myself and our 5 and 3 year old just returned from watching this. We had been anticipating this film for sometime. This film was certainly worthy of our anticipation.
Pooh’s Heffalump movie teaches valuable lessons about acceptance, prejudice and growing up. Beyond that it is a throughly entertaining and literal romp in the woods for the whole family.
While Pooh’s name is on the title the star of this movie is really Roo. Roo is ultimately the catalyst of change in the film and carries the day very well.
In my opinion Pooh’s Heffalump movie surpasses Piglet’s big movie as the 2nd best Pooh movie of all time (Nothing in my mind will ever supplant The many of adventures of Winnie the Pooh as the best film in all of Poohdom). Not to give anything away, but I would encourage everyone who sees the movie to stay and watch the closing credits as there is a wonderful homage to Many Adventures that was laugh out loud funny.
As we were leaving the theatre my kids were already lobbying (no pun intended) to see the film again and again. And unlike many films kids want to watch over and over I wouldn’t mind joining them.

A thoroughly enjoyable film for the whole family! My husband and I made a quick decision to take the whole gang to see the film the day after it opened. Our five children range in age from 7 years down to 16 months, and ALL enjoyed the experience! I especially enjoyed watching our 3 year old – since this was his first “movie theater experience” – with his eyes rivoted to the screen and munching on his popcorn. He never squirmed; he simply loved every minute of it!
The baby Heffalump (a.k.a. Lumpy) had the sweetest voice and moved me to tears at times. The friendship that Roo forms with Lumpy teaches wonderful lessons to children about getting to know a person before judging them as someone to be feared or avoided. Even the gesture by Lumpy’s Mom (near the end of the film)was sincerely touching as she put her trunk around the shoulders of Roo’s mom Kanga.
Our children have just loved watching “Piglet’s Big Movie” and “The Tigger Movie” repeatly on TiVo where we have it recorded – as well as the series “The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh” ( I truly enjoy listening to them laugh and laugh as they view these episodes!) “Pooh’s Heffalump Movie” will have this family anxiously awaiting it’s DVD release!
Most highly recommended!

This is the first movie we took our 3 year old to and she loved it. Usually movies have something that seems a little too scary for the little ones, but this one didn’t. Nothing too intense or too serious. A great addition to the other Pooh classics.

This is an awesome movie! Disney has really out done themselves with this Winnie the Pooh movie. This is my favorite out all of them. Why? 1.It adds 2 new characters to the One-Hundred Acre Wood which I was hopin the tigger movie would do. 2.It teaches alot of great lessons. 3.Lumpy is the cutest character ever! Im 13 and I enjoyed this movie. Other 13 year olds will say “Hes done seeing that movie” but even when I turn 110, I will Love Winnie the Pooh. Lets hope the next movie will be even better!

I took my 4 year old daughter and 4 year old nephew to see this movie. It was incredible, the best Pooh movie I’ve seen in a long time. The kids sat through the whole thing very well and really enjoyed it. It had some very valuable lessons.
