The Adventures Of Rocky And Bullwinkle (2000) 7/10

Starring : Rene Russo, Jason Alexander, Piper Perabo, Randy Quaid, Robert De Niro, June Foray, Keith Scott
Director : Des McAnuff
Running Time : 88 mins

With the fall of the Iron Curtain, Fearless Leader (De Niro), Boris (Alexander) and Natasha (Russo) travel to Hollywood where they are accidentally brought to life following the signing of the contract for the live action Rocky And Bullwinkle movie. Now they’re on the lose in the USA, and FBI agent Karen Sympathy (Perabo) must find the only people who could possibly stop them, Rocky (Foray) and Bullwinkle (Scott).

Despite having heard some pretty awful reviews of this, I actually enjoyed the tongue in cheek approach to the original cartoon, giving the characters new life by actually giving them a background and bringing them to life in every sense of the word. Even though it is sad to see De Nrio in this sort of movie, it is still filled with enough laughs to keep it watchable.
