A blend of live action and computer animation, Yogi Bear is a lighthearted comedy featuring everyone's favorite smarter-than-average bear, Yogi (Dan Aykroyd), and his pal Boo-Boo (Justin Timberlake). Ranger Smith (Tom Cavanagh) and his assistant Ranger Jones (T.J. Miller) are charged with keeping everything running smoothly in Jellystone Park, which basically translates into keeping Yogi's obsession with stealing people's picnic baskets under control and stocking the pamphlet stand. But when Mayor Brown (Andrew Daly) decides to close the park and rezone the land to allow widespread logging, Ranger Smith must find a way to make the park quickly turn a profit to stop the process and save the park from destruction. Documentary filmmaker Rachel (Anna Faris) happens to be in the park on a quest to film the unusual talking bear Yogi, so she and Ranger Smith team up and create a big centennial celebration that has the potential to save the park. Unfortunately, a crazy stunt by Yogi derails the celebration and destroys any chance of the park making a profit. The question is, was there sabotage involved and is there any other way to save the park? This film is packed full of crazy inventions, silly gags, high adventure, and slapstick comedy, and, while it's really just fanciful entertainment, it does leave viewers with the message that you can't fail if you never stop trying. (Ages 7 and older) --Tami Horiuchi

I am not going to comment about the plot - others have done that very well already, but I guess I must be young at heart because I completely and totally enjoyed this 80 minute 3D treasure which I why I have given it a well deserved five stars. Almost from the start, Yogi's telescope came out of the screen and poked me in the eye! There were several other occasions when things thrown in my direction only just missed!!! Yogi and Boo Boo are sooo cute, how could Ranger Smith or anyone be angry with them? The scenary around "Jellystone" is beautiful, and if my memory is correct, it was filmed in New Zealand.
I am using the latest Optoma HD33 3D projector onto a 108 inch (9ft) diagonal screen where these 3D effects become very noticeable and effective. I have found that if I pause the movie at certain points, it is almost as if I am looking through a window at the real thing. I also did this when watching The Grand Canyon. The 3D on that IMAX documentary is so realistic that it's almost like being there.
It is my hope that more film makers will move into 3D because this technology has made 2D seem very plain and ordinary.

All my expectations were exceeded when I watched Yogi Bear. It is an EXCELLENT family movie with NO language or sexual implications whatsoever! Any child of any age (including me at 46) will enjoy this true-to-original but very realistic movie. Then when I watched it in 3D, it was almost like watching a completely new movie! The 3D effect is STUNNING and really places you inside the forest from the first frame!
This movie was filmed using proper 3D cameras (dual lenses), and so it was not just made to be 3D using computers (post-production). The effect is awesome and every single frame is in true 3D. Even the "behind the scenes" on the 3D disc has special features focusing on the 3D aspects of the movie; these features are NOT found on the 2D version disc!
My kids are irritated with for for watching "their" movie over and over, but I honestly CANNOT fault this movie in any way! I must concede that this movie is "smarter than the average 3D movie"!!!!

My partner and I took my five year old daughter to see Yogi Bear at the cinema yesterday and all three of us enjoyed it very much. I use to love watching the Yogi Bear cartoons on tv as a kid and my dad before me was a fan of them, when they first came out in the 1960's too. "Dan Aykroyd" who has starred in many great comedy films over the years such as The Blues Brothers [DVD] [1980] and Ghostbusters [DVD] is perfect for the voice of Yogi Bear. There are many funny moments throughout the film as Yogi Bear and pals try to save Jellystone park from being cut down and destroyed by the city mayor. I was surprised at what a good job "Justin Timberlake" did of voicing Boo-Boo and the frog faced turtle is so cute with it's extra long tongue. "Tom Cavanagh" from the tv series Scrubs plays the role of Ranger Smith whom is more likeable then the cartoon version. Ranger Smith falls in love with a documentary film-maker who is acted by the pretty "Anna Faris". If your children like the Garfield and Scooby Doo movies then I'm sure they will enjoy Yogi Bear too.

Yogi Bear [DVD]
This is an okay film. The story line isn't anything special but may be worth a rent rather than a full purchase.
