Animated super villain, Fearless Leader, and his cronies find themselves in the real world and set about making plans to take control of the Earth. Who can save us? Step forward everyone's favourite squirrel and moose - Rockey and Bullwinkle...

We all grew up having watched at least one Saturday morning Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoon. It was fun, it was wacky and a few minutes on a Saturday morning is all this idea really merits. This may well be fun for the kids (they'd have to be very young though) but this one will really stretch the accompanying adults patients.

And what is Robert De Niro doing? De Niro plays the part of the villain. He was just beginning to show that he could do comedy in Meet the Parents and then he goes and accepts this role. Time to get another agent Mr De Niro.

If you have a young child who begs you to go and see this with them, think long and hard before doing so. 91 minutes is a hell of a long time to twiddle your thumbs.
