Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

zsofikam Something that I should mention is that I simply adore Winnie the Pooh. I love the fun stories, the great characters, the pretty landscapes, the wonderful music, and the overall innocent feel. Unlike other incarnations, The Book of Pooh relies on puppetry rather than regular animation, but it succeeds at what it does just as well. Kanga and Roo don't make many appearances but it must be kind of hard to make Kanga and Roo puppets (or a Christopher Robin puppet for that matter). However, we do encounter Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, Rabbit, Owl, and Eeyore, as well as Cassie (the bluebird in The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh). There's also a narrator like the one in The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. The songs are also very nice and memorable, I especially enjoy the goodbye song at the end of each episode. I must admit that I have a soft spot for Tigger, as he reminds me of myself when I was little (yes, I was that excited about everything all the time). The idea is to teach phonics and each episode centers around some aspect of reading readiness. There's one episode where the narrator gets confused and everyone switches roles, like Pooh is bouncing, Tigger is eating honey, Cassie is gardening, and Eeyore is flying (or trying to).

Global_Marketing_Pros I read the Tao of Pooh, which focuses on the East Asian philosophy and the innocence of Pooh. I think Pooh as a concept from England is characteristic of other myth created in England such as Alice in Wonderland. Innocence is a difficult concept to teach once we have been born into a world of environmental stress. For this reason I like to see more of Pooh associated with emptiness type philosophy such as Zen Buddhism as well. Pooh as a constant empty vessel that gets filled with different ideas is both comical and distressful. Because it makes the character of Pooh seem like they can not learn, which I do think is relevant for any animal. So, as the symbol of innocence Pooh has both good and bad concepts founded in education. This is why I say it is more the Tao of Pooh.

curiva4 This is simply a nice little show, and I don't mean that disparagingly. It captures the feel and spirit of the original much better than the frenetic and occasionally just plain bizarre "New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh," though as others note the latter is intended for an older audience. The plots and lessons are generally simple, but there's no violence, no screaming, and thankfully no product placements. If you're seeking a quiet and toddler-friendly program, be sure to give this one a try. There's definitely a place for peaceful children's' programming like this; remember, Pokemon and Fear Factor would love to hook kids instead.

trueluvnanarchy The Book of Pooh is an all around excellent, visually-delightful children's show. Notice how the majority of negative comments expressed here are critical of the characters' appearance rather than show content, suggesting more than a tinge of irrational resentment. We all feel protective of the shows and characters we grew up watching, which can create a severe bias when it comes to remakes and modernized versions of these shows. The Book of Pooh is a great example of this narrow-minded mentality. The Hundred Acre Wood is brought to life in a near-flawless mix of puppeteering and computer animation, with catchy musical numbers and interesting plots to keep the young mind entertained as well as educated. A very important aspect to keep in mind is the age difference in viewers of the New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh cartoon and The Book of Pooh, with the latter aimed at the 2-6 age group, whereas the former is geared towards older children about 6-10. This is why the Book of Pooh has larger characters, simpler backgrounds, and less complex but more educational plots. This is all to keep the attention of toddlers while teaching them basic moral lessons, as well as simple counting and reading skills. Bottom line: It's a charming, imaginative show for the toddler/preschool audience, and adults won't be too bored watching it either. As long as they aren't constantly comparing it to the other Pooh shows. :-)
