Movie Reviews of My Friends Tigger, Pooh and a Musical Too
Movie Review: Enjoyable with its catchy music but also a DVD that is fun and educational!
Summary: 5 Stars
An entertaining family film featuring Pooh, Tigger, Darby and gang! A film with fun music but also a DVD that is enjoyable and educational! Definitely recommended!
"Tigger & Pooh and a Musical Too" is the second film based on the popular Walt Disney 3D animated television series "My Friends Tigger & Pooh" shown during the Disney Channel's Playhouse Disney block.
Welcome to the Hundred Acre Wood picnic. Everyone from Pooh, Tigger, Rabbit, Eeyore, Piglet and the gang and also Darby and her dog Buster are having a great time at the picnic.
The group is so happy with Rabbit accomplishing much with the organization and planning of the picnic that he unanimously is appointed the Mayor.
But things quickly change in Hundred Acre Wood as Rabbit takes the job of Mayor to the point where each animal has a schedule they must follow including dozens upon dozens of rules that they are not to break.
For example, Tigger who loves to bounce, can't bounce until a certain time. Characters have to sleep at a certain time and people must do everything that the Rabbit has set in their schedule.
But this quickly starts to annoy everyone and sure enough, Tigger is the first to rebel and thus to settle things, Rabbit and Tigger divide the Hundred Acre Wood with a white line. Those that stay in the side of the Rabbit must follow his rules, while those who live on the side of Tigger must follow their rules. But to make things worse, each animal must choose a side of who they want to follow, and thus the problems at Hundred Acre Wood start to increase.
"Tigger & Pooh and a Musical Too" is an enjoyable film featuring songs that are exactly like a musical and are quite fun to sing a long too.
To make things much more enjoyable on DVD, there are three ways to watch the film. Alone by itself, Sing-Along version in which the film becomes like karaoke during the musical segments and then there is "active play" which people can learn from the film by two ways. Interactive with a remote or a narrated active version which requires no remote but the film changes during certain scenes where it becomes an educational-based film in which the viewer needs to figure out the answer to a question.
VIDEO & AUDIO:
"Tigger & Pooh and a Musical Too" is a fun 3D animated film which is presented in Widescreen (1:78:1) and mtches the style of animation featured on the Disney Playhouse TV series "My Friends Tigger & Pooh". The animation is colorful and cute and quite adorable for children and families.
The audio is presented in Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound and with the film being a musical, the songs are in a musical style of format and sound quite good on your front/central channel speakers. In fact, the music comes alive during the musical.
SPECIAL FEATURES:
"Tigger & Pooh and a Musical Too" comes with few special features:
* Rabbit's "Think Think Think Theatre" Game - The game is a CG based game hosted by Rabbit. This game allows a child to select a song using the DVD remote control and selecting a background image in which the viewer can use the remote to paint the background correctly and add additional props.
* Playing Modes - Aside from watching the film standalone or with the "Sing Along", you can also selected "ACTIVE PLAY" which a child can watch the film but participate in the action without any assistance from an adult or the operaton of a remote. For "INTERACTIVE PLAY", this requires a remote and a child can interact with the program.
* Music & More - Sing Along with the Movie - The ability to watch the film with the karaoke subtitles during the musical. The colors light up during each word sung.
* Kenny Loggins Music Video "Underneat the Same Sky" - A music video featuring Kenny Loggins and as someone who grew up with Kenny Loggins, the guy looks and sounds fantastic as he did back in the 70's and 80's.
JUDGMENT CALL:
Like many parents, for so many decades, we grew up with Winnie-the-Pooh and Tigger. And for our children now, they are growing up with a 3D animated version of the characters and with DVD technology, this entertaining film/musical gets a humongous thumbs up for its educational use of "ACTIVE PLAY" and "INTERACTIVE PLAY" in order to get the children involved.
When watching this film with our child, my wife and I thought the songs were so catchy and fun and granted it helps that the DVD does include the "Sing Along" to make things much more fun and enjoyable, it's really hard to go wrong with this DVD.
If I had to nitpick of what I wish was on the DVD, I suppose that with the seven original songs, similar to what Disney has done with their "High School Musical" releases, having a song breakdown in the special features, so parents can automatically select those songs immediately.
But that's having to nitpick, because really, there's nothing bad about this DVD, it's actually a wonderful children's film and fun musical that is educational and most of all, enjoyable for both children and their parents.
Overall, "Tigger & Pooh and a Musical Too" is a DVD that I highly recommend for parents to purchase for their children.
