Concerned that their friend feels sad, Winnie and his friends dress up like Tiggers so he won't feel so alone.

As Tigger heads out in search of others like himself, he accidentally makes his way into a snowstorm, and Winnie and friends must find him before he gets lost in the cold.

    I love Winnie the Pooh, and a Tigger movie, how could I say no. It was my childhood, and this movie is always a time portal for me to my past.

    Disney's charm, and classic hand-drawn animation can be seen for a brand new generation. The story is darker than most of Winne The Pooh's previous adventures, and the story wont appeal to anyone over the age of 9 or 10, the film is a positive installment into the Pooh adventures... read more, and will be great entertainment for children.

    The Tigger Movie is one of the most tear triggering, exhilarating, and fun family movie ever. It may lack great songs or a story but it still satisfies. Overall Rating:78

    Funny, cute, playful, and all a Pooh lover could want.

    At this time, Pooh's only other feature film had been a collection of three featurettes more than twenty years earlier, so The Tigger Movie is arguably the very first example of a full-length Pooh story. Thankfully, it doesn't disappoint, drawing out a complex narrative from the ... read morefamiliar Hundred Acre Wood setting.

    Falkenstein leaves behind the boring hero vs. villain convention and instead picks up a challenging existential theme in Tigger's story. The art is a pleasant homage to Shepard's original illustrations, the writing has the same deft wit as Milne's books, and the songs are quite irresistible as well.

When it comes to Pooh stories, a shortage of ambition and reluctance to improve on success should be counted as assets. Full Review

The Tigger Movie falls short of recent children's animated features.

Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly

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

A pale imitation of the original Winnie the Pooh Disney shorts of the '60s.

The magical world of Pooh is always delightful to watch, even through a dirty lens.

The songs seem to have been written over lunch at the Disney cafeteria. Full Review

The story isn't a grabber.

The dialogue is kid-level funny and the animation often has the manic energy of Alice in Wonderland. Full Review

Anybody who first saw Tigger and learned the wonderful things about him more than 20 years ago is going to feel great, as will the very young who have been raised on Pooh and Co., one of the few carto... Full Review

Even though the animation is still sharp, the writing is flat.
