Movie Review - Yogi Bear

Title: Yogi Bear Year Of Release: 2010 Review Date: June 30, 2011 Rating: G Running time: 80 minutes Box Office Gross: $201,584,141 Site Rating: 3 out of 10 stars "Yogi Bear" is the animated film about the bear of the same name. Yogi Bear and his docile sidekick, Boo Boo, work to defeat a derivative plot, by a corrupt politician to cut down all the trees in JellyStone national park, a take off of Yellow Stone. This kids cartoon has a few uncomfortable moments due to somewhat adult jokes. For example, there is a scene in the film where Yogi begins dancing provocatively to the song "Baby Got Back" by rapper Sir Mix Alot. Then there's, Ranger Jones, who had a little sugar in his tank and staring at the head male ranger a little too hard, while he goes after the leading lady. Yogi's dating advice was not the brightest (then again, neither is Yogi). He told Ranger Smith to "urinate on" the woman he has a crush on to mark his territory. At that point I thought to myself, who wrote this, R. Kelly.
