Nominated for Best Visual Effects This movie was so boring I straight up almost forgot to write about it.
After a series of tragedies during boarding school, Christopher Robin (Ewan McGregor) grows up to be a boring, strait-laced manager at a luggage company who neglects his wife (Hayley Atwell) and daughter (Bronte Carmichael) until his childhood imaginary friends show up at his home and teach him the true meaning of blah blah blah.
You know this story. You know every beat of it because you've seen Mary Poppins, Hook, Drop Dead Fred, and probably a dozen more that I can't think of off the top of my head. The special effects are great but the story lets them down. I would have liked to have seen more correlation between the Hundred-Acre Wood characters and Christopher Robin's employees, which seemed to be parallels but were in the movie so briefly it was impossible to tell. Unless your kid is just obsessed with Winnie the Pooh, skip this one. Not even Agent Carter could save it.
