Walt Disney’s latest animated feature stars A.A. Milne’s adorable Winnie The Pooh and all of his friends.

Heffalump’s have a scary reputation among Pooh’s clan, but since none have ever been seen, the mere mention of their name can conjure up all kinds of frightening images. Pooh and his friends hear noises coming from deep inside Hundred Acre Woods and they believe it's from the evil, spike-tail Heffalump.

Rabbit, Tigger and the rest decide to go and search for Heffalumps, but not without setting up some traps, just in case. They’re jittery about what they’ll find, but Little Roo (voiced by Nikita Hopkins) takes off on his own adventure when his elders tell him he can’t come along.

Roo comes face to face with Lumpy the Heffalump, a young, plump purple elephant-like cutie. He’s nothing like what Roo expected and the two romp around and become friends.

Young kids will love the antics of Piglet, Tigger, Eeyore and Mama Heffalump (voiced by Brenda Blethyn) and the rest of the adorable Pooh clan. The characters are all colorfully drawn and the story is light-hearted and even has a good message to never prejudge anyone, because you might just meet up with a big softie with an English accent who becomes your friend.
