Review of Christopher Robin (2018) by Smirk — 19 Aug 2018
I can see that the writers tried really hard to capture the whimsy of Winnie the Pooh and friends, especially with a story about returning to you childhood and working out what's important in life (shh.
.. it's you family). Somehow, however, Christopher Robin fails, both in whimsy and in a sweet story. Somehow, there is too much of Pooh, the story is predictable and corny. I am a fan of Ewan MacGregor, and even enjoyed his Alec Guinness impression, but his posh English accent seems strained at times, as was his acting.
I am also a fan of Hayley Atwell, but she had very little to do in this film, and sadly, the show wasn't stolen by young Bronte Carmichael. Sadly, this film didn't do it for me.
