Genre: Fantasy, Mystery, Animation, Drama, Family
Tagline: Heffa nice day.
Plot: A welcome dose of old-fashioned animation for parents and a delightful, easy-to-follow experience for kids, this is a nostalgic cartoon feature for fans of the Pooh series. Rabbit, Piglet, Tigger, Eyore, Winnie the Pooh, Kanga, and Roo, are all on hand for a lesson in how to fearlessly face new and possibly strange experiences. The plot concerns the hysterical panic that arises when the gang learns of a nearby family of dreaded heffalumps. Their subsequent excursion into Heffalump Hollow to capture the beasts is not a great success, but the littlest member of each side--Lumpy (Kyle Stanger) and Roo (Nikita Hopkins)--end up meeting and becoming friends. Mutual distrust lingers amongst the other animals however, and when Pooh and company try to capture Lumpy, his well-meaning but overprotective mom (Brenda Blethyn) charges to the rescue. The always relevant "don't judge a book by its cover" moral is conveyed with subtlety and wit, the animation style is clean and calming, and the scenery is rendered with an easy-on-the-eye pastel palette. There's an assortment of fun and lovely songs as well, including: "The Horrible, Hazardous Heffalumps," "Shoulder to Shoulder," and "Little Mister Roo" by Carly Simon. Parents may heave a nice sigh of relief to see that an animated film doesn't

Pooh and the gang perform admirably, but can't reach the heights needed to justify a cinematic audience. Oh bother!  --Tyler Hanley
The animation, which is the last done by Disney’s Tokyo studio is quite good, and I fear that this may be the last traditional theatrical cartoon feature to come out of that company. While there’s nothing WRONG with this trifle, I was hoping there’d be abetter finale for the company that more than anyone was the face of moving drawings for the world.  --Eric Lurio
Grownups may find "Pooh's Heffalump Movie" slow moving at times, but Joel McNeely's score — which feels like real movie music — and Carly Simon's original songs help keep any adult attention deficit in order.  --Billy Heller (New York Post)
