The Tigger Movie: With everyone preparing for winter, Tigger (spell that T-I-double GRR) can't find anyone who will bounce with him. He decides that what he needs to do is find the other Tiggers so he'll have someone to bounce with whenever he feels the urge. But isn't, the wonderful thing about Tiggers is that Tigger's the only one?

As you may have already guessed, unlike the previous Pooh adventures this is a Tigger vehicle (and it's about time I say). It has been a long while since I watched the originals, and it felt strange to hear the characters voiced by different people, most notably Eeyore and Rabbit. And did they have so many songs ? I stopped counting at four. Also, I found the inconsistent animation a bit distracting. But whose kidding whom? It was a fun movie, with humor, action, pathos, and resolution, and I bet more than a few people will leave this movie with a tear in their eye.

Take the kids, or just tell them you're one at the wicket.

But it should have been a bit longer. 77 minutes is not enough. I have always loved Disney's animation of the Winnie the Pooh TV show and I was way excited when I first learned of this movie. 100 acre wood looks as magical as it always has done and is presented very well in this feature.

The story itself is a bit childish but still manages to have balls when it has Tigger FAIL to find his family. Although I would have liked him too I respect the ending they went for.

Although this film isn't to everyone's tastes (I know it seems a little fruity a guy of 20 can like this film) I say you should see this movie, preferably with kids. It's perfect child fodder and good entertainment. Not just family entertainment. Should be longer though.

The Tigger Movie is a good movie for kids, but for people who expect the original film (The Classic: The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh) should just stay home. The film is worth seeing if you are a rabid Winnie the Pooh fan, a kid who likes it, or are just a movie buff. The songs are not as creative as last time and the story line isn't as good as the last one(also, you may notice John Fiedler is the only original voice from the first film in this one), but if you are looking for similar characters, some of the same animation techniques, and some new surprises, this film is for you.

In this film, Tigger (voiced by Jim Cummings -- one of the least known yet well deserved voice actors) basically thinks he has a family, and is elated when he hears they're coming to the Hundred Acre Woods.

One knows everything that is going to happen in this film, but who didn't know Pooh would get out of Rabbit's hole in the classic "Pooh" film? I for one found that though predictable, "The Tigger Movie" is a film with a message, and it can be enjoyed by all ages. It isn't "rated PG for brief language." It doesn't have small print. It's harmless family fun, and I praise the film on that account. Tigger swearing or aiming a gun at Roo's head just wouldn't do for me (though it would be funny to see on "The Late Show," or something that can twiddle with the animation :)

I give "The Tigger Movie" 3/5 stars -- it has the Disney magic in it.

Our family has always enjoyed "The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh" (A compilation of the first Winnie the Pooh shorts), and have enjoyed the simple, easygoing stories. The more recent Winnie the Pooh offerings by Disney have been disappointing, often relying on Indiana Jones-ish action sequences, forgettable songs, and poor animation.

I was expecting about the same from this film. Thankfully, the creators of this film have gone back (almost) to the style of the first shorts. This film relies more on the relationships of the characters rather than using a fast-paced action-based method of storytelling. The animation is quite good, and the songs fit well with the story.

However, the songs aren't woven too tightly into the story (you can always see one coming). There is one song in the tradition of the past Disney films where all the visual references go way over the kids' heads; then there is the finale which really did not need to use a major action sequence to make its point.

Despite these things, "The Tigger Movie" is very well done and is an enjoyable film for the whole family.

This film is very cute and you feel for all the characters here. It is surprisingly engaging and emotional. However, it is also very simple. You get what you expect.

Well, this movie is amusing for a while, and I guess little kids would enjoy it, but it's so *LONG*! It wears out it's welcome rather early on. I like Pooh and his friends, but in smaller doses. These characters work much better in shorter stories. That said, this was a cute movie but I don't know if I'll ever want to see it again.

Those of us who grew up with the wonderful inhabitants of the Hundred Acre Wood were pleased as punch to see Winnie the Pooh and friends get a full-length animated movie. Still, while Pooh has always gotten the lead role in most of the Pooh cartoons, it always seemed to be Tigger who was the most popular character. So, logically, it seemed the right idea to make him the star. While the movie enjoys the songcraft of Richard and Robert Sherman (the team responsible for most of the great Disney songs of years gone by), it sorely misses the vocal talents of Paul Winchell and Sterling Holloway (although the ageless John Fiedler soldiers on). "The Tigger Movie" makes wonderful rainy afternoon viewing both for restless tykes and nostalgic Disneyholic adults. But be warned; bouncing can be habit-forming!!!

This movie is truly enjoyable. I can watch it may times. My wife and I are great fans of Winnie the Pooh and particularly Tigger. He can bounces and can talk really fast. The way that Tigger was looking for his family made it really fun!

I recommend that movie to everybody that have babies and/or toddlers.

1st watched 3/4/2000 - 6 out of 10(Dir-Jun Falkenstein): Despite the fact that this Disney effort copies from many of it's predecessors including the made-for-video Pooh movie(Grand Adventure) it has a charm that only the characters from the 100 acre wood can give it.The theme of all-for-one and one-for-all probably will never die as a heart-catcher.

Starting with a lament from Tigger that all the Winnie the Pooh movies are about - well - Winnie the Pooh, this movie goes on to meet his complaint and crafts a story about Tigger, who suddenly decides that being the only one isn't the most wonderful thing about Tiggers. Frustrated because he can't get any of his friends to go bouncing with him, Tigger becomes convinced that there must be a whole family of tiggers somewhere out there in the Hundred Acre woods, and he sets out to find them, leading to a series of adventures for all the gang and disappointment for Tigger, until he suddenly realizes that he didn't need to go looking for his family - they were right there all the time. Having adopted my daughter from China a few years ago (at 5, she loves this movie, by the way) I thought the message was so important: Pooh and Eeyore and Roo and Kanga and Owl and Piglet and Rabbit were Tigger's family - because family doesn't have to look like you or even be the same as you. Family are the ones who care about you and love you, no matter what.

The movie includes some nice songs and a few laughs (although it isn't really "funny" and also includes a few sad scenes as well.) It's fun for kids and pleasant viewing for adults, too. 9/10

When we took my 2-year old to see the Tigger movie, maybe our expectations were a little high. A.A.Milne's stories have been stretched a little too thin by Disney over the years, but that doesn't keep us from putting on our Tigger golf shirts and heading to the multiplex to give it a try.

I knew we were in for a long evening when the first ad was our first exposure to "Dinosaur". My 2-year old was, shall we say, less than pleased with the T-Rex scene. The theater was filled with scattered, muffled cries.

The Tigger movie itself was down-right dull. It start off with a little of the bouncy wackiness we'd come to expect, then the rest of the movie Tigger seems to just drag his tail around and mope. All through the movie, my daughter taps me in the side and says "Daddy, why is Tigger sad? Daddy, why is Tigger sad? Daddy, why is Tigger sad?" Thank goodness my watch has a backlight on it.

Disney has come out with some real gems lately (Mulan, Toy Story 2, and Tarzan are both 9's in my ballot), but the Tigger movie seems like little more than Disney's declaration that mopes like me will continue to shell out $18 to have the family bored to tears.

If you liked Tigger and crew as a child, then go back and see them again.

The kids will enjoy it, and the adults will, too. One can't help but become involved with the characters, and eyes will become misty no matter how hard you fight it.

The songs are original and funny, and even have subtle references that older viewers will catch (they are NOT inappropriate in any way) and younger ones will miss, which allows many age levels to enjoy it.

You have to be quick, though, because Tigger sings faster than he bounces.

If you like Tigger like I like Tigger, then you're sure to enjoy watching this fun, frolicking, little rascal starring (and bouncing) in his very own movie.

Starting off in the Hundred-Acre Wood, Tigger (charged, as always, with bouncy good fun and energy) sets off on an amazing adventure, hoping to find fellow tiggers to bounce around and play with.

With all of its charm, exuberance, and joy, The Tigger Movie is sure to bounce its way straight into your heart. This is one of those happy-go-lucky gems that can be enjoyed by all ages.

Check it out.

Don't waste your money. This isn't the Tigger you know and love. My whole family was so bored, we walked out halfway through.

While Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, Too may not have all the charm and sensitivity of the original books by A.A. Milne, this film has all the warmth and love of a corporate executive squeezing the last cent out of a beloved, but deceased, author of delightful books for children. I usually enjoy Disney movies, as do my children, but everything you've heard about Disney ruining a children's classic is true in this case.

The whole plot is laid out in the first five minutes of a movie that has all the dramatic pacing of The Land Before Time. The flat characters sing incredibly dull musical numbers while bouncing randomly around the screen with animation that would look amateurish from anyone, let alone Disney.

In Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, Too, Tigger was brash but lovable. Now he's just rude, condescending, and obnoxious - if he were a neighbor, you wouldn't let your kids play with him.

Skip the movie, and don't bother with the video. Instead, walk across the street, buy a good book, and read it with your kids. You'll be glad you did.

I thought that this movie was darling. The characters were cute. The story was very good. Everyone who worked on this movie did a wonderful movie. I highly recommend this movie for people of all ages to watch because it was so good.

The Tigger Movie is just a delightful heartwarming film, and has a great message about family. Although it is primarily a kids movie, this is one of the few animated films of recent times, when an adult feels comfortable watching it. The animation is very colourful and crisp on the most part, and the songs aren't at all bad, in fact they are fun and on the most part memorable. And I also want to say, at 17 I still love Winnie the Pooh, and maybe I am being biased for really liking this movie, but Tigger is such a lovable and fun character, he truly deserved his own movie. Speaking of Tigger, as much as I love Paul Winchell, who IS the voice of Tigger as far as I'm concerned, Jim Cummings voices him marvellously, and his singing is beautiful. (Cummings is also a very underrated voice artist, he is just incredible, born to voice Darkwing Duck and Rasoul from the Aladdin movies is a great character mainly because of Cummings' vocal input) The story is a very heartwarming one, and there are some truly touching scenes like the ending, which made me cry when I first saw it. Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Eeyore and Roo especially are great supporting characters. My only complaints for the Tigger Movie, are that it is too short at just over 75 minutes, and while the story is heartwarming, not very much happens in terms of action. However, despite these minor flaws, it is a hugely enjoyable animated film, that is really pleasant not only for kids but for adults too. A solid 8/10 Bethany Cox

After causing more trouble than good with all his bouncing, Tigger realises that he is different from the rest of his friends and gets depressed. When overhearing about Owl's family tree, Tigger realises that he needs to find his family tree to be able to have people to bounce around with. He sets out to try and find his family's tree in the forest.

Having seen the pretty poor movie featuring Piglet I didn't hold out much hope for this film even if Tigger is one of the more fun characters of the series. However the plot is a little better than that film and the whole thing has a lot more energy to it. The basic plot is reasonable enough but it will be no surprise to anyone that lessons are there to be learned. The film moves along easy enough and is light enough to enjoy without being hard to watch.

The songs are OK and aren't overdone to the point that their averageness becomes a major drag. The animation is pretty basic though and this is matched by the voice work, which doesn't really do anything and actually sounds quite bland. The film isn't great though - it's just passable enough to watch. Kids should enjoy it but even for them it may be all a bit bland and `nice' to compete with sharper cartoons. As for adults, it is unlikely that they will take much from it apart from having the kids distracted for an hour or so.

Overall, fans of Pooh and all will probably enjoy this film, I liked it because it was undemanding and quite a pleasant little story. The animation is OK even if the voice work is poor and the humour of the film couldn't compete with the much sharper kids animations that are out there.

No one ages in the world that is Walt Disney's, not even in the 100-Acre Wood. The ever-youthful Christopher Robin, and his imaginary friends such as Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Eeyore, Roo, Kanga, Rabbit, Owl and yes, the infamous Tigger are all here, they never leave.

The Winnie the Pooh brand name, had been produced once more by The Walt Disney Company, this was to become The Tigger Movie. Without, sadly, the original voice that was Paul Winchell (1922 – 2005), who for many years had given us all fun and frolics with his ever lovable, or annoying, what ever your perspective may be, character Tigger, via a voice of lovable believability and honesty. Here we have the new voice, for a new generation, Jim Cummings (b.1953), not entirely a new comer, as he had voiced Tigger during the 1988 shows The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. While listening to the new voice, I'm afraid, for me, it just does not make it; with the comparison to listening to an elderly gentleman who quite simply had forgotten to put his false teeth back in. While the Americanisation of the associating voices are just bearable, the only English voice here is the narration of John Hurt.

The animation here is your same old same old character profiling, as expected with historical characters and their evolution into the modern technical age, but as with this movie in particular, it is clean, sharp, colourful, and ordinary. It isn't about the quality of the messenger, but the importance of the message that The Tigger Movie portrays.

In typical Walt Disney fashion, we have the moral standings of family values and friendships that can overcome doubt and loneliness, wherever and whoever the sufferer may be; friends and family are always near to give the boost back to the land of smiles, happiness and championship, they never disappoint.

This is really a movie that can be blessed by children from all around the world, with its Tigger silliness, the half a dozen or so songs that accompany any Disney production such as this, and the heart-warming all rounder of a story that will have them happy to have been part of the Tigger family movie.
