POOH’S HEFFALUMP MOVIE

This time, the wry, cuddly, animated bear (voiced by Jim Cummings, who does Tigger too) and crew from the Hundred Acre Wood are confronted with monstrous Heffalumps, who have encroached on their turf. The mysterious beasts turn out to be docile pink elephants, but in a case of mistaken intentions, Pooh, Tigger, Piglet (John Fiedler), and Rabbit (Ken Sansom) launch an expedition to capture the trespassers. Meanwhile, Roo (Nikita Hopkins), who’s suffering from an identity crisis, has befriended an adolescent Heffalump named Lumpy (Kyle Stanger with an infectious British accent). The underlying message that we’re all the same on the inside if you take the time to stop and look resonates without being heavy-handed. The direction by Frank Nissen is crisp, and the sing-along tunes by Carly Simon add a nice touch, though there could be a dollop more tongue-twisting Pooh babble to keep adults awake in their seats. (68 minutes)
