Christopher Robin 2018

I don't have any deep nostalgia for Winnie the Pooh, but this film made me feel like I do. I guess there's a reason these characters are so well loved - they're cute, hilarious, and wholesome. And of course there's the voice acting. I think the dialogue was strong, but honestly Jim Cummings could probably say any line with Winnie the Pooh's signature voice/cadence and I'd probably love it. The story isn't revolutionary, but its compelling enough to serve as an effective nostalgic vehicle. There aren't many live action films for younger audiences that win me over, so it was a pleasant surprise to find another favorite here.
