    Directed by Simon Curtis and is based on the creation of the character Winnie the Pooh.

    Not a story I would have been particularly interested in, but this is one of the most impressive trailers I've seen in a long time.

    I wonder if the personalities of the various Winnie the Pooh characters are actually based on Milne's wartime history - Eeyore has PTSD and depression, owl is an officer too old for the job, hunting woozles is really about pointless missions like the circuitous back and forth of taking and losing land at the front.

    A fantastic actor who gets to be in films with Margot Robbie and Rachel McAdams. Lucky man

    Loved Winnie the Pooh as a kid so this film should be interesting

    Seen this last night. Loved it.

    A simple enough story but engrossing all the same with some excellent performances.

    Saw it last night as well.

    Wow. What an emotional movie.

    Great things -
    Domhnall Gleeson. Holy f*cking sh1t. The guy is becoming one of the greatest actors out there, I think. His English accent is absolutely pitch perfect. The scenes in which he experienced shell shock (don't think that's a spoiler?) are subtle and not overacted like how other actors might play the same thing. He completely disappeared into the role and it was so easy to forget that was anybody else.

    Margot Robbie. I have to admit that I haven't been all that impressed by her performances - at least in the movies I've seen of hers. In this.. she was excellent.

    The child. Let's be honest here - the movie would have been a success or a failure on the back of Will Tilston. Wow. What an incredible actor and for such a young age too. He sort of reminds me of Henry Thomas as Elliott in ET.

    I saw this last weekend and loved it. There were excellent performances all round and young Tilston was superb. Shout out to Kelly MacDonald who played Nou too.
