Piglet's Big Movie Trailers

When the gang from the Hundred Acre Wood begin a honey harvest, young Piglet is excluded and told that he is too small to help. Feeling inferior, Piglet disappears and his pals Eeyore, Rabbit, Tigger, Roo and Winnie the Pooh must use Piglet's scrapbook as a map to find him. In the process they discover that this very small animal has been a big hero in a lot of ways.

I don't normally give 1 as a score, especially to a Winnie the Pooh movie. But, guess what? Disney really dropped the ball on this one. Obviously, no one who was writing or editing has ever seen The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, which is the release of the three main vignettes created by Disney himself with his original artists, etc. as one movie. I saw it as a kid, and own a copy on VHS that I bought for my son. In the second vignette, Winnie the Pooh has just had his experience with "Winds-Day", and the "very blustery day turned into a very blustery night". When Pooh is in bed, there comes a sound "never heard in the 100-acre wood before". And there is a loud banging at his door (for those who love to find errors in editing, have a field day with Pooh's door!). Pooh "decides to let the new sound in" and in bounds Tigger, who "bounces" Pooh for the very first time. In the very first vignette, Pooh gets trapped in Rabbit's front door. Remember who brought Pooh honeysuckle? Remember who pulled and tugged to remove Pooh from Rabbit's door?? Kanga and Roo. Who lived in the 100-acre wood before Tigger. Enough before Tigger to be well-established characters LONG before Tigger enters the Disney picture. So,I recommend NEVER seeing this movie. Never buying this movie and maybe even sending mail to Disney to let them know fans of Pooh weren't napping on this one. What a waste. I was very angry at the theater when I took my son and spent over $30 to see something that was so horrible. I've since learned it's OK to leave and ask for a refund. You won't be blacklisted at that theater, and you might even send a mightier message to the Disney machine. This isn't the first ball they've dropped, but it certainly is the most disappointing.

Piglets big movie is the best movie I've seen, nd I'm 15! i watch it over and over. the music is great and the story line is gripping!!! i disagree with anyone who says it is rubbish when i don't think it is! at the end i was on the verge of tears! it is an emotional film about friendship, if only we all had friends like them! Piglets big movie shows that no matter how small you are you are big in peoples lives and that meant something to me as I'm short! it made me see that no matter how much you think no one needs you, at least one person needs you and would do anything to make sure you are ok1 i was so thankful for my friends after i saw this film!!

"Piglet's Big Movie" seems to be another Disney sequel treated with total disrespect and disregard, only this time, it's not straight to video - it's in the theaters. Tigger had his own movie a few years ago (which was a joyful movie filled with a fair amount of humor), so with the success of that film Disney has decided to target a brand new film specifically at Piglet fans, though fans of the classic Piglet may be disappointed, as the new voice of Piglet sounds wholly different, and his size has decreased significantly (he used to be about half the size of Winnie the Pooh, now he's about the size of Pooh's paw).I've personally always hated Piglet. Pooh's had his own children's book series, his own short films from the mid-sixties, a cartoon series in the nineties, and a complete franchise built upon him. No one can complain he hasn't had his turn in the spotlight. Tigger is the most widely-loved character from the series (and I agree), and so he has had his own movie and is featured in many merchandise tie-ins. None of the other characters have had their own films until now. Quite honestly, many people favor Eeyore over Piglet, and so the next film will probably be "Eeyore's Big Adventure" or something. The question is whether we need films based soley upon characters who were never meant to be totally expanded upon in the first place."Piglet's Big Movie" starts off in the Hundred Acre Wood. Winnie the Pooh (voice of Jim Cummings), Tigger (also Cummings), et al, are working on something and exclude Piglet because he is too small. Piglet, feeling ignored, runs away from home. It is then that the gang reflect on many different adventures they had in which Piglet paid major parts of (although Piglet's feats in "Pooh's Grand Adventure: The Search for Christopher Robin" are left unexplored, as that would be ripping off an audience even more than they already are being ripped off).I realize "Piglet's Big Movie" is for children, and in that respect I don't blame Disney for making it. But it is so obvious this film had no thought put into it that it hurts. First off, I watched it with children and they hated it. Second, I know that there are a lot of Piglet fans out there (mainly women) who absolutely adore the character, who wear pirated shirts with irons of Piglet stained on them, and by making this crap they're hurting their chances at respect from big-time fans.There isn't any wonder in this film, there isn't anything fresh, to say it is a film entirely about Piglet and his Big Movie is lying. This is a rip-off cash-in that Disney has crafted just to make some extra cash through Piglet fans. They're hurting children and fans alike by making this trash. Midway through this cartoon adventure, a seven-year-old I was watching the movie with said, "This is stupid." She then advised a friend, "Whatever you do, don't buy 'Piglet's Big Movie,' it's stupid." If a seven-year-old has enough cinematic taste to realize "Piglet's Big Movie" is a rip-off, Disney may have to remarket their strategy - kids aren't as stupid and devoid of cinematic taste, it seems, as they think.2/5 stars -John Ulmer

Let's face it, this is Disney and this is about the most insignificant little guy of the bunch. Any review looking at this movie as anything short of entertainment for kids is missing the point. But I digress...I have taken my kids (3 and 6) to see a few kids movies in the theatre. This is the first time they both sat still and totally silent through the whole movie. For me (and most any other parent) that in and of itself makes this movie fabulous. There were laughs, but mostly this was a very good movie to make people and kids realize value and worth. A nice theme and a great ending. As always Disney manages to end with a great deal of the realization of friends and family being important. I recommend anyone with kids seeing this movie. It isn't the most stimulating of all movies (i.e. Shrek, Monsters, Inc) but it's for the kids, not the adults.
