You are here: Films N-Z Y Yogi Bear

Yogi Bear

2/10

I'm willing to go out on a limb here, and say that this is likely to be among the very worst films of 2011 - or any other year. Watching the trailer is enough to give me a skin infection. The original Hanna Barbera cartoon was nothing special, but endearing in a harmless kind of way, as Yogi and Boo Boo did their Laurel & Hardy routine, like the animal equivalent of Fred Flinstone and Barney Rubble. This semi-animated feature film looks and sounds somewhere north of dire, and should be isolated away from centres of population.
