When Christopher Robin (Ewan McGregor) had to leave his stuffed animals behind to go to boarding school, he finds himself forgetting about them. When Winnie the Pooh (Orton O’Brien) can’t find his friends he comes to Christopher Robin for some help. As he is helping Winnie, he accidentally leaves something very important behind. Winnie and his friends find Christopher’s daughter Madeline (Bronte Carmichael) to help them find her dad. On their adventure to find Christopher, Madeline’s mom Evelyn (Hayley Atwell) starts to freak out because she can’t find Madeline. When Christopher and Evelyn finally find Madeline, they all go back to Ashdown forest. They left Winnie and his friends in Ashdown forest and went home. Madeline started to go back just like Christopher did when he was little.

 

This movie is an emotional roller coaster. It is a little different from other Winnie the Pooh movies but the storyline is similar. Ewan did an amazing job at playing Christopher Robin.  Chris Lawrence and Michael Eames did an amazing job on the cgi animation for the movie. Everything looked so real and the actors did really good. The movie is really good for families and I wouldn’t hesitate to go see it.
