Review – The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle

Our animated heroes make the jump to real life (or at the very least computer-rendered semblance thereof) in this mostly-for-the-kids effort. I liked moose and squirrel when I was younger, so I got sort of a kick out of the film-makers’ efforts to faithfully re-create the zany stupidity of the original cartoon series. What made it all the better was the involvement of a galaxy of big Hollywood names, particularly Robert DeNiro as Fearless Leader. Pre-teens and cartoon fans will probably get more out of the dumb jokes and sight gags, though every once in awhile there’s a bit of humor that only adults will get. Overall, if you’re in the mood for something stupid but entertaining then you’ve come to the right place. Mildly amusing
