I know I already reviewed the 2011 Winnie the Pooh (in a very long-winded fashion), but I will do my best to make this review short and sweet.
Overall opinion of this film: I simply adore it. As I stated in my previous Pooh-related post, Tigger is my favorite character. He's sweet, quirky, energetic, and fun fun fun fun fun. He's also the only one, and that's what this entire movie stems from: Tigger is lonely from being the only Tigger, and he wants to find his Tigger family. With some help from little Roo, who admires and looks up to Tigger in the cutest little-brother way possible, Tigger sets out to find and/or contact his family.
The movie has everything a family movie should have: sweet and adorable characters, simple yet engaging plot, some drama to shake things up a bit, and some good clean humor to round it all off. From Eeyore's gloomy and snarky quips to Tigger's and Roo's bit of slapstick bouncing to the heartbreaking twist and heart-warming lesson, this film is for all ages, especially for those who loved the original Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh.
Chances are, you'll finish this movie in tears. I sure did. I love every second of it, and it warms my heart every time I watch it. I'll have to give this film an A- (only because the original is so witty and charming, and though this one is fantastic, it's not quite up to the same level :)). I'd suggest it to anyone who appreciates and welcomes a bit of childhood every now and then, or any fans of Winnie the Pooh.
Enjoy the film and TTFN!!

PS: The film has some really good music too. The Whoop-de-Dooper Loop-de-Looper Ali-Ooper Bounce song is my favorite.
