That there was no squirming among the kids at my screening may be the best recommendation of all.

LA Weekly Nicole Campos

A gas, full of just enough whiz-bang animation, but not too much to ruin what has always made Pooh and friends -- adventures work in the past.

A warm, comfortable, thoroughly inoffensive kidfilm.

A yawning affair that would be a perfectly fine video rental but doesn't really require the big screen.

Mr. Showbiz Michael Atkinson

A pale imitation of the original Winnie the Pooh Disney shorts of the '60s, but a vast improvement on the current Pooh TV series and straight-to-tape specials.

An adequate piece of children's entertainment, though it seems better suited for home viewing...than for the big screen.

A conflicted entertainment, compromised by trying too hard to impress the restless, self-referential adults in the audience.

If a long, chilly afternoon needs to be filled, The Tigger Movie won't hurt. But neither will it enchant.

By far the least ambitious, and certainly the least interesting, animated feature to come out of Disney in quite some time.

Parents and older siblings...may grow impatient with the uneven execution that weakens the genuine charm the film sporadically exhibits.
