Whatever else is competing for your attention this week, The Tigger Movie is worth clearing space for. The Tigger Movie does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. Winnie the Pooh, Piglet, Owl, Kanga, Roo, and Rabbit are preparing a suitable winter home for Eeyore, the perennially dejected donkey, but Tigger's continual bouncing interrupts their efforts. Rabbit suggests that Tigger go find others of his kind to bounce with, but Tigger thinks "the most wonderful thing about tiggers is" he's "the only one!" Just in case though, the joyously jouncy feline sets out to see if he can find relatives. Jim Cummings and Nikita Hopkins lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was released in 2000. What keeps The Tigger Movie from feeling disposable is a cast that clearly understands the material better than the format usually demands. There is real craft here, even in the moments that do not fully land.

Comedy fans looking for a reliably funny watch will find it in The Tigger Movie. It has built its own audience without needing a direct comparison. The complete film is available and best experienced without too much prior knowledge of where it goes. Jim Cummings anchors an ensemble with real chemistry. Genuinely funny, consistently, across the whole run.
