Winnie-the-Pooh (not to be confused with Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey) is a 2023 animated movie that was released on Tubi. It was directed and written by A.A. Miller, based on A.A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh which was released in 1926.

Why It Makes Us Say "Oh Bother"

1. Extremely poor and lazy animation that looks extremely outdated for 2023 standards.
2. The lip-syncing is significantly misaligned.
3. Extremely lazy production values, as the animation was primary made using artificial intelligence.
4. Lazy and low-quality voice acting, even Winnie the Pooh's voice actor in this film sounds like Donald Trump making a Winnie the Pooh impression.
5. What's even worse is the character designs, with many examples being Winnie the Pooh not having a red shirt, and Christopher Robin's clothing looks painted on, you can even see his belly button, his design even looks like Woody from Toy Story. Not to mention that Winnie the Pooh's teeth look extremely creepy in this rip-off.
   • Eeyore looks nothing like a donkey, he looks more like a horse if anything, they also made his fur brown instead of grey.
   • Roo has a completely different art style from everyone else and it makes him stand out like a sore thumb.
   • Piglet looks more like a Cocomelon character. And it shows...
   • Rabbit looks even more like a Judy Hopps reject.
6. The pacing is quite sluggish and lacks consistency.

Redeeming Qualities

1. Even if the animation is extremely lazy, the visuals are at least nice to look at.
2. Despite the poor grasp, the movie does at least give off references to the Winnie-the-Pooh franchise.
3. At least it doesn't use the "public domain horror" cliché at least intentionally,

Reception

The film has been reviewed by SaberSpark and currently sits at a 4.2/10 by 16 reviewers on IMDB.

Trivia
