QUICK TAKE:
Children's: As Winnie the Pooh and his friends search for Eeyore the donkey's missing tail, Owl misreads a note and falsely deduces that a monster has kidnapped their mutual friend, Christopher Robin.
PLOT:
In the Hundred Acre Wood where Christopher Robin (voice of JACK BOULTER) lets his imagination play, Eeyore the depressed donkey (voice of BUD LUCKEY) has lost his tail and needs his friends Winnie the Pooh (voice of JIM CUMMINGS), Tigger (also the voice of JIM CUMMINGS), Owl (voice of CRAIG FERGUSON), Rabbit (voice of TOM KENNY), Piglet (voice of TRAVIS OATES), Kanga (voice of KRISTEN ANDERSON-LOPEZ), and Roo (voice of WYATT DEAN HALL) to help him find it.

As they search high and low, several of them craft alternatives for a tail. Among the things that hang on Eeyore's backside are a balloon with a long string, a chalkboard, a dartboard, and a bell. But Eeyore wants his real tail back.

Then, Christopher Robin disappears and Owl misreads a note that says he will be "back soon" to mean that he has been taken by a creature known as the "Backson." Now, Pooh and his friends must bravely set a trap to try and catch the monster, which doesn't really exist. At the same time, Pooh has a "rumbly tumbly" and his craving for honey sometimes gets in the way of his common sense.

WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?
Yes, very young kids age 3-6 will be richly rewarded, especially if this is their first movie-going experience.
WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: G
Presumably for not containing material to warrant a higher rating.
