Summary: An Easter Carol
Review: "Springtime With Roo" would be better titled "An Easter Carol," seeing as the story is a rip off of the classic Dicken's tale. The storyline is that Roo is very excited for his second Easter egg hunt, but Rabbit decides not to do Easter this year. Instead, he wants to have spring cleaning day. So the narrator takes rabbit(Scrooge) back in time to see the way Easter was last year. Then the narrator shows Rabbit the future and what will happen if he dosen't have Easter.

Disney usually has an entertaining story that everyone can get interested in, but they failed to do that with this Pooh film. There also aren't any jokes to laugh at. Only small children will have a good time with this film. The two Easter themed episodes from the popular series "The Wonderful World of Winnie The Pooh" which are extras on the DVD are better than the movie itself. The rest of the bonus features are games for little kids.

This film won't please your entire family, only little kids.(...)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun and cute, but misses the higher point
Review: (...)This film (...) fails to capture the true essence of Easter. Not that I expected it to, for sure! But it might be a good idea to remind your young viewers that Easter is about more than eggs and bunnies, ribbons and flowers. It's certainly a time to celebrate new life...but to celebrate the new life that is given us by God, through his Son Jesus.

The film is still cute - although certainly not among the best stock that Disney has produced. I recommend it, but I also recommend something to remind children of the real reason for Easter.

Summary: Great For Kids!!
Review: Disney has finally returned to the quality product we've all grown accustomed to in past years. "Springtime with Roo" not only entertains with its terrific story and fun musical selections- it teaches children about the importance of friendship and very simply, HOW to be a good friend.

As a discerning parent, I am always on the lookout for quality movies/videos for my three kids ages 5, 8, and 12. Unfortuately, the products that I've come across in recent years have been average at best and have lacked that spark that makes a "classic movie/DVD"- the kind that makes them want to watch over and over again.

They watched this one start to finish without interruption- not even for a cookie break!! Now their friends and cousins all want to come to our house to watch. Kids of all ages will absolutley love this latest movie- I highly recommend it!!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not as good as others...
Review: I'm a bit disappointed with this one. Although the outcome is positive, the movie is mostly depressing. I'd go with either "Piglet's Big Movie," "Winnie the Pooh - A Very Merry Pooh Year," or the classic "The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (25th Anniversary Edition)"

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Cute, typical Disney flick.
Review: My 2 1/2 year old daughter likes this DVD. She likes Winnie the Pooh in general and loved "Piglet's Big Adventure." This movie is cute and engaging. It's not spectacular, but easy enough to watch again and again.
