Certificate: G

Genre:

Jellystone Park has been losing business, so greedy Mayor Brown decides to shut it down and sell the land. That means families will no longer be able to experience the natural beauty of the outdoors -- and, even worse, Yogi and Boo Boo will be tossed out of the only home they've ever known. Faced with his biggest challenge ever, Yogi must prove that he really is "smarter than the average bear" as he and Boo Boo join forces with their old nemesis Ranger Smith to find a way to save Jellystone Park from closing forever. See it in 3D at select locations.

Movies.ie Critic Review

When a documentary filmmaker turns up at Jellystone Park, he gets more than he bargained for when Yogi Bear, his sidekick Boo Boo, and Ranger Smith start up their traditional Hanna-Barbera shenanigans.

THE VERDICT: An animated offering that miraculously manages to make Gnomeo & Juliet positively Pixar-esque, this sorry offering has pretty much no redeeming features whatsoever. Except, maybe, for the neat spoof you’ll find online, where the closing of The Assassination Of Jesse James By That Coward Robert Ford is reenacted by Yogi and Boo Boo. I’m guessing Brevig would be far prouder of that two minutes than this 80.

    The picture keeps away from gross-out overkill, preferring the art of the woodland pratfall to the mysteries of the gastrointestinal system. A small victory, but one I will happily celebrate
