Live actors and animated characters combine to bring Jay Ward’s cute and corny 1960s television series to the big screen. Natasha, Boris and Fearless Leader – played by Rene Russo, Jason Alexander and Robert De Niro – once again face off against ‘moose and squirrel’ (playing themselves). This has some charm and it’s certainly wittier than anyone could have hoped for, but aside from earning a quick buck off of nostalgia there’s no real reason for it to exist.
