The pride of Frostbite Falls and Whatsamatta U's most famous alumni find their way onto the big screen (and the real world) in this comedy inspired by the popular cartoon series. Years after their TV show is cancelled,
Rocky the Flying Squirrel (voice of
June Foray) and
Bullwinkle J. Moose (voice of
Keith Scott) are barely getting by on residual checks; they're wondering what to do next when
Fearless Leader (
Robert De Niro), the evil genius of Pottsylvania, transforms himself from a cartoon into a living, breathing, nasty human being, thanks to the assistance of television executive Minnie Mogul (
Janeane Garofalo). With the help of his newly flesh-and-blood henchmen
Boris Badenov (
Jason Alexander) and
Natasha Fatale (
Rene Russo), Fearless Leader plots to take over the world by using television to zombify people and then persuading the masses to elect him president. Can the daring flying squirrel and the well-meaning but not especially bright moose stop them? Unlike the TV show, which made a virtue of its unsophisticated animation,
The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle employs a technically sophisticated blend of computer-generated animated characters (Rocky and Bullwinkle) and live actors (Fearless Leader, Boris, and Natasha). Human beings making guest appearances include
Randy Quaid,
John Goodman, and
Jonathan Winters.
