The Random Film Review: Christopher Robin

Christopher Robin

Director: Marc Foster
Cast: Ewan McGregor, Hayley Attwell, Bronte Carmichael 
Released: 2018

A middle-aged man is stalked by his childhood toys. Witchcraft is not involved.

The Good:
Innocent and enchanting - refreshing to see when so many "children's films" are now 12 certificates
Ewan McGregor does well in convincing the audience that the characters are real and holding the whole film together
The animated creatures were beautifully realised and I even liked Eeyore for the first time ever!
Classic, timeless quality

The Bad:
Central character story was reminiscent of Mr Banks' character arc in Mary Poppins
The characters were all a little terribly British for my personal tastes
PG certificate was baffling! It should have been a U

And The Verdict:
Enjoyable fare, good family fun. 8/10
