Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Right up the alley of parents and kids watching together and anyone who knows cartoons aren't just for kids. Works for the whole couch, from little ones up. Fans of The Jungle Book or The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh should feel right at home.
The mood
Feel-good.
The pace
Paced for all ages, at 20 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
  • It's in Russian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1972: an older pace and style.
  • Probably not for a grown-ups-only night in.

Another Soviet Winnie-the-Pooh story. This time the donkey, known from the Pooh stories as Eeyore, is sad because he has no tail. Pooh goes in search of one and finds it attached to a bell that hangs from the treehouse of one Owl.
