As somebody who hasn't any recollection of watching any Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons, I stumbled across this film on TV, I had no expectations of what it was. If anything I thought it would be rubbish. As most kids films... Full review

Although I've watched this movie several times when it was in theaters and now own a copy I really think it can be enjoyed only by those of us who were fans of the late 50's and early 60's television... Full review

One thing that was misleading: the cover of the VHS (or DVD) shows Robert De Niro, Rene Russo and Jason Alexander but those three do NOT have major roles or a lot of lines in this picture. Most of the... Full review

For a true fan of Rocky and Bullwinkle who actually grew up then I have to say this movie is right on target and very funny. You are asking why an older guy loves it so much? Because my child... Full review

The beginning of this movie is promising. It sets itself up for self-parody -- satirizing the old cartoon show and its absurdities while also managing to make fun of some clichés of cartoons and feature-film spin-offs.Then it becomes its own... Full review

I loved this movie to pieces each of the 4 times I saw it in the theater! Apparently not everybody was privileged to be born in 1955 and spend a childhood marinating in the Cold War puns and snarky anti-corporate... Full review

I was really surprised at how much I liked this movie. R&B are brought magically to life in the real world, and still have the same magic in their camraderie. People complained that the puns were stupid and that the... Full review

On the heels of that film, Perabo was cast as FBI agent Karen Sympathy opposite Robert De Niro, Rene Russo, and Jason Alexander in the woeful Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle . ... Full Review

Fortunately, this film is at least a little better than that one. In particular, Alexander and Russo seem bored, Perabo lacks any sense of comic timing and co-producer De Niro doesn't get enough screentime to chew as much scenery as he should. ... Full Review

Ignoring the conventional wisdom that audiences couldn't handle verbal wit, Ward created Rocky, a flying squirrel who couldn't fly, and Bullwinkle, a lovable doofus of a moose. In 1959, when animator Jay Ward created his landmark show "Rocky and His Friends," TV animation was mostly innocuous and dull. ... Full Review

The movie (at its best in spoof and satire mode) even has a scene in which Agent Sympathy programs "road trip" and "cartoon" into some sort of genre-plot machine to literally generate the story. Rocky and Bullwinkle are loveable cartoon characters who are animated very nicely into their live-action surroundings. ... Full Review
